PLUMBING HOOK-UP

1. Flush the water line and securely attach it to the elbow fitting on the bottom of the dispenser.

2. Turn-on the water supply.

This equipment must be installed to comply with the International Plumbing Code of the International

Code Council and the Food Code Manual of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). For models installed

outside the U.S.A., you must comply with the applicable Plumbing/Sanitation Code for your area.

NOTE - Water pipe connections and fixtures directly connected to a potable water supply shall be sized, installed

and maintained in accordance with federal, state and local codes.

PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS

This dispenser must be connected to a cold water system with operating pressure between 20 and 90 psi from a

1⁄2” or larger supply line. A shut-off valve should be installed in the line before the dispenser. Install a regulator

in the line when pressure is greater than 90 psi to reduce it to 50 psi. The water inlet fitting is 1⁄4” ﬂare.

NOTE - Bunn-O-Matic recommends 1⁄4” copper tubing for installations of less than 25 feet and 3⁄8” for more

than 25 feet from the 1⁄2” water supply line. At least 18 inches of an FDA approved ﬂexible beverage tubing,

such as reinforced braided polyethylene or silicone, before the dispenser will facilitate movement to clean the

countertop. Bunn-O-Matic does not recommend the use of a saddle valve to install the dispenser. The size and

shape of the hole made in the supply line by this type of device may restrict water ﬂow.

NOTE - If a backﬂow preventer is required by code, a shock arrestor should be installed between backﬂow preventer

and dispenser. Installing the shock arrestor as close to the dispenser as possible will provide the best results.
