Flushing Kit Installation
Determine if any additional fittings, hoses or tubing are
required for the installation:
Install the filter head as shown. Note the arrow on the
head indicating direction of water flow.
Attach the included bypass module to the filter head.
If the house water supply is unfiltered, you may attach
the optional filter (Dacor P/N ACWF) instead to improve
water taste.
Turn on the water supply and check for leaks.

Important Information
This ACFS flushing kit is used to perform the periodic
decalcification process required by Dacor plumbed (CM24P
series) coffee systems. Calcium build up must be reduced
to keep the coffee system performing properly. Perform the
decalcification process in addition to the other mandatory
cleaning procedures outlined in the Coffee System Use and
Care Manual.
This kit does not replace a water treatment system that
may be needed to lower the coffee system water supply
hardness (mineral content) to the required level of 4 gpg or
less.
This kit is not for use with Dacor tank model coffee systems
(CM24T series).
Before Installation
Before installing the coffee system, determine the water
hardness level by doing one of the following:
If the water hardness is above 4 grains per gallon
(4 gpg) contact a qualified water treatment specialist.
Have a water treatment system installed that lowers the
water hardness level to 4 gpg or less.

Installation Instructions
WARNING
Dacor cannot be held responsible for damage to property or injury to persons caused by failure to comply with the
installation, maintenance and safety instructions contained in this handbook.
Observe all local and regional codes during planning and installation of this kit.

CAUtION
Do not use the JT-2 flushing cartridge included in the kit
in place of a filter cartridge. The flushing cartridge is not
designed for long-term use and may leak over time.
CAUtION
Dacor coffee systems require an input water hardness level of 4 grains per gallon (gpg) or less. This kit does
not lower water hardness level. Use of a Dacor coffee system with a water hardness level higher than 4 gpg will
damage the coffee system.
•
Use the water hardness test strips included with
the appliance to test the water hardness level of
the water supplied to the building where the coffee
system will be installed. Dip the strip in a cup of
water from a faucet and read the hardness level
according to the color key included with the test
strips.
Call the local water company. Ask them for the
water hardness level of the water supplied to the
building where the coffee system will be installed.

•
The fitting required to connect the filter head using
copper tubing are included with the kit. However,
some installations may require additional fittings,
depending on the layout of the plumbing and the
type of water treatment system used.
Some versions of the coffee system come with a
hose for connection to a ¼” water supply fitting.
Suitability of the hose will depend on installation
layout.
On Models CM24P and CM24P-1 the water
line from the filter head connects to the water
pressure regulator mounted on the back of the
coffee system. The water supply flows through the
regulator, then into the water supply connection on
the back of the appliance.
On all other models, the water regulation system is
build into the coffee system. Therefore, the water
line from the filter head connects directly to the
water supply connection on the back of the coffee
system.
The input on the filter head connects to the house
water supply valve, or the water treatment system,
if one is installed.
