Connection of Water Supply - -
NU-VU
®
strongly recommends that SOFT WATER ONLY be used in any unit requiring a water supply. Also, a good quality
water filter must be installed in-line between the unit connection and the water supply to guard against clogging and mineral
build-up in the components, one is included with your QBT-3/9. This is extremely important in areas having hard water. The
water filter head is installed on the rear of the equipment, the filter cartridge is shipped inside the proofer.
A. Run 1/4” (6.35mm) OD tubing from the water supply line to the unit location. Allow some slack in the tubing for
final unit positioning and any future service requirements. Avoid any kinks or strains on the tubing, and position
the tubing where it will not be damaged in any way.
B. The tubing end that attaches to the back of the unit must not be damaged or deformed in any way. The cut end
should be cut straight and clean with no deforming of the tubing. All burrs and sharp or rough edges should be
removed to ensure a proper and leak-free connection.
C. Position the tubing so that it runs straight into the intake Water Fitting [79] on the rear of the unit. Be careful not to
kink the tubing if you bend it, and do not bend the tubing within two (2) inches of the cut end.
D. Push the end of the tubing all the way into the intake Water Fitting [79] (approximately 1/2” (12.7mm))
E. Install the filter cartridge by removing the protective cap from the top of cartridge, ensure that the two o-rings are
in place, then lift the cartridge into the filter head and rotate the cartridge 1/4 turn anti or counter clockwise until it
comes to a stop.
F. Push the unit back into place and set the brakes on the front Casters.
G. The Proofer compartment of the NU-VU
®
QBT-3/9 is equipped with a bottom drain centered directly under the
Proofer Door. Please install the included Drain Pan [77] in the bracket under the Proofer and install the Drip
Trough [72] on the front of the unit under the Proofer door.
Careful attention to these simple procedures will help to ensure an installation without leaks. If you have any questions or
problems, please call the NU-VU

NOTE: Your QBT-3/9 is equipped with a Drain in the floor of the Proofer compartment. This Drain prevents the
