in the install kit reduces the pressure to an optimal 50
psi.
NOTICE
Water pressure that does not
meet the minimum pressure
requirement of 40 psi can cause damage to the
internal components. Low pressure may also
affect the performance of the unit and the taste of
the beverage.
2. A standard 3/8” diameter inlet water line is
recommended (copper or FDA-safe plastic).
4.2 Electricity
1. Access to one standard 120-Volts electric wall
receptacle is required. The unit must be close enough
to socket that the supplied power cord reaches without
stress or stretching.
NOTICE
DO NOT connect the unit to a
power strip and DO NOT use an
extension cord.
2. A minimum 20 Amp GFCI outlet on a dedicated
circuit is recommended with a minimum current of 5
amps. Prior to installation, ensure that it is possible to
disconnect the power supply either by removing the

If the cord or plug
becomes damaged,
replace only with a cord and plug of the same type.
