Counter Setups
Before connecting your mains water up to the Benchy Sparkling ensure that the sparkling water and
cold-water outlets are connected to a tap or plugged and all push in fittings are connected and all
hosing is secure.
IMPORTANT: For first time setup, keep the mains water supplying the Benchy Sparkling off until
the unit has been connected to all dispensing taps and CO2.
An easy way to redirect your mains water is to install a diverter valve with ¼ inch push in fitting
(
) onto your mains water supply valve which has a ½ inch thread. 4mm x 6.35mm (1/4 inch)
PE water line (
) is suggested to be used between the diverter and the Benchy sparkling.
It is suggested that the pressure of your mains water supply is reduced to 10-15 psi higher than the
pressure set on the CO2 regulator. To reduce the mains water pressure, we would recommend using
an inline regulator with a 0-150 psi mini gauge (
). It is also suggested that a
check valve is placed between the mains outlet and the soda carbonator. We recommend using a
duotight check valve that is easy to install in line with your hosing (
Push your water line securely into the water inlet push in fitting on the Benchy Sparking (Outlet 4 in
Figure 1).
