6.5 Water
The manufacturers' recommended installation instructions DO NOT supersede
any local plumbing regulations. Installation must be done by a certified
tradesman and in accordance with all code requirements.
Each rotisserie requires a connection to a hot water source. It is recommended
that high temperature rated hoses and pipes are used to provide water to each
rotisserie.
Each rotisserie requires a water pressure of 30 - 60 psi (2.1 - 4.1 bars) at inlet.
6.5.1 Water softener
In locations where the water hardness exceed 4 GPG (70 PPM) a water softener is required. External softeners are
not required in locations that have integrated water softening systems in their potable water supply lines. For all other
locations it is recommended that you install an external water softener system. The softener should be installed on the
water supply line to the rotisserie and be connected to the water inlet located at the back of the rotisserie. Do NOT
mount the water softener directly on the rotisserie.
6.5.2 Water connection
1.
Ensure the facility water supply is turned off.
2.
Locate the water inlet connection at the lower rear right corner of the rotisserie (see Figure 6-6).
3.
Apply Teflon thread sealant to the ½" NPT fitting and screw on the threaded quick-disconnect fitting (purchased
with the rotisserie).
4.
Apply Teflon thread sealant to the large diameter of both male to male couplings and assemble them into both
ends of the flexible water supply hose as shown in Figure 6-6.
5.
Apply Teflon thread sealant to one of the male to male
coupling’s small diameter ends and assemble it into the
quick-disconnect coupling.
6.
Connect the water supply hose to the water supply line.
7.
Slide the quick-disconnect coupling onto the quick-disconnect fitting to complete installation.
8.
Ensure the drain valve
is set to ‘CLEAN’. Open the water supply valve and check lines for leaks.
All supply side water fittings must be installed by a qualified plumber.
