PLUMBER’S INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 
 
Brewer must be connected to a POTABLE WATER, COLD 
WATER line. Flush water line before connecting to Brewer. 
  
DO NOT use a saddle valve with a self-piercing tap for the water 
line connection. Such a tap can become restricted by waterline 
debris. For systems that must use a saddle tap, shut off the main 
water supply and drill a 3/16” (minimum) tap for the saddle 
connection, in order to insure an ample water supply. Remember 
to flush the line prior to installing the saddle. 
 
The brewer must be installed on a water line with average 
pressure between 20 PSI and 90 PSI. If your water pressure 
exceeds 90 PSI at anytime, a pressure regulator must be 
installed in the water supply line to limit the pressure to not more 
than 90 PSI in order to avoid damage to lines and solenoid. 
 
A water shut-off valve should be installed on the incoming water 
line in a convenient location (Use a low restriction type valve, 
such as a 1/4-turn ball valve, to avoid loss of water flow thru the 
valve. 
 
A water line strainer (not provided; ¼" flare "y" strainer available 
separately as p/n SA9052) must be installed in the supply line, 
between the shutoff valve and inlet fitting. Note FLOW arrow 
marking on strainer body. 
IMPORTANT: 
To enable the installer to make 
a quality installation and to 
minimize installation time, the 
following suggestions and tests 
should be done before the 
actual unit installation is started:
