INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
GENERAL NOTES:
The Model H1001.8/H1001.8HPS Water Cooler assembly requires installation of the mounting
frame as described in Steps 1 - 2, then mounting the fountain bowl assembly as described in
Steps 3 - 6, and finally completing chiller water and electrical connections and starting chiller per
Steps 7 - 11. First check that all required parts are received.
Grounding may cause electrical feedback into the electric drinking fountain causing an
electrolysis, which creates a metallic taste or an increase in the metal content of the
water. This condition can be avoided by using dielectric couplings in the assembly. The
waste line, which is supplied by the installer, should also have a dielectric (plastic)
coupling to completely isolate the assembly from the building plumbing system.
NOTES:
1. For all plastic push-in type fitting connections, only connect NSF-61 copper or
plastic tubing. Stainless steel or glass tubing is not recommended. The
following assembly instructions must be followed to ensure a watertight
connection:
a. Cut tubing square and clean.
b. Mark from end of tube the length of insertion (See table below).
c. Push tube into the fitting until it bottoms out.
d. To remove, depress collet and pull tubing out.

STEP 1:
Provide wall opening as detailed in Installation Drawing. Frame must be positioned
such that frame flanges overlap and butt against finished wall surface. Mounting
holes are provided for #6 sheet metal screws. After frame is positioned in wall,
swing chiller support tray into position (See Installation Drawing), align tray holes
with holes in frame and fasten with #10 sheet metal screws. Mounted frame must
support 50 pound chiller in addition to fountain weight and user generated forces.
STEP 2:
Install waste, supply and electrical lines in locations shown in Installation Drawing.
Waste and supply lines may be installed for either rear or side entry. Verify proper
waste, supply, electrical and frame locations. Use level to verify horizontal and
vertical frame mounting to insure proper bowl drainage.
STEP 3:
Installation Drawing shows fountain bowl, back panel and grille locations. Unpack
bowl and remove bottom plate using 3/32” hex allen wrench. Install back panel on
frame with narrower edge to bottom. Position nut retainers into mounting frame and
use two 5/16-18x1 hex head screws partially started in outside holes to support
panel. Install bowl/bracket assembly onto panel using four 5/16-18x1 hex head
screws hand tightened. See sheet 2 of Installation Drawing for appropriate bowl
mounting pattern to use for this model
STEP 4:
Remove 1-
1/2” IPS outlet elbow from trap (not supplied). Install elbow inside frame
onto waste stub-
outs. Reassemble trap “U” bend with inlets centered behind
fountains.
