INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
GENERAL NOTES:
The Model HWCT8 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 -
10. 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
fountain is furnished with a nonmetallic strainer at the supply, which should meet this
requirement. 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.
For all plastic push-in type fitting connections; push tubing into fitting until it bottoms
out to ensure a watertight connection. To remove, depress collette and pull tubing out.
