IMPORTANT:
1. Water Supply Service Stop Valve and Water Connections to be supplied by others in accordance with local
codes.
2. Waste is 1-1/4” Outer Diameter. Drinking Fountain water inlet is 3/8” Outer Diameter copper tube. Bottle
Filler water inlet is 3/8” Outer Diameter copper tube. Water line by others.
3. Completely flush supply lines of all foreign debris before connecting to fixture. Optional Water Filter (WF1), is
available should any problems with taste, odor, color, or sediment arise from the water supply.
4. All burrs must be removed from outside of cut tubes before inserting into strainer or other components.
5.
Per UPC 609.10-All building water supply systems in which quick acting valves are installed shall be
provided with devices to absorb the hammer caused by high pressure resulting from the quick closing of the
valve. These pressure-absorbing devices shall be approved mechanical devices. Water pressure-absorbing
devices shall be installed as close as possible to the quick closing valve.
PRIOR TO INSTALLATION:
1. Read all installation instructions carefully, before proceeding.
5. Completely flush water supply lines of all foreign debris, before connecting to the fixture.
8. After thoroughly flushing the 3/8” outer diameter supply line, connect water supply to the 3-way divider
assembly. From the 3-way divider assembly, connect to drinking fountain bubbler.
4. Remove the drinking fountain top by taking out the drain screw and lifting at the front while pulling forward.
Disconnect bubbler tube. Set top aside in a safe place where it will not be damaged. Place the screw in a
secure location where it will not be lost.
2. Hang trim panel on mounting frame. Note: The included 1” brackets do not get used with this installation and
the plastic spacers are typically not required and can be discarded.
3.
If water flow requires adjustment, insert a slotted narrow blade screwdriver in the hole centered on the
underside of the fixture in the knee clearance area up to the flow regulator. Turning clockwise will increase
flow and turning counterclockwise will decrease flow.
2. Carefully remove all fixture components from packaging, preventing scratching or damage. Inspect fixture and
all parts from damages and all parts that are bolted on.
7. Make-up 1-1/4” outer diameter waste connection.
DRINKING FOUNTAIN START UP:
1. Insert mounting frame into the rough-in block out and secure using 1/4”-20 UNC mounting hardware (Provided
by Others).
3. Provide mounting surface, adequate to support the fixture and loads on the fixture.
6. Assemble P-trap to drain adapter and then assemble to unit with Phillips head screws.
2.
Air within the drinking fountain system or the structure supply piping will cause an irregular bubbler outlet
stream until purged out by incoming water. Covering the bubbler with a clean cup (or similar object) is
recommended when first activating drinking fountain to prevent excessive splashing. Depress front push pad
until steady water stream is achieved.
1.
Before connecting power supply, but after thoroughly flushing the supply line, turn on building water supply
and check all connections for leaks.
4.
Recheck all water connections with water flowing through system.
4. Provide rough-ins as shown on the roughing-in and dimensional drawing, including water supply, drain pipe
and gravel drain well. (See rough-in details)
9. Place drain gasket on drain adapter. Reconnect bubbler tube. Reassemble top to unit by engaging back clip
and securing with screw.
