*Even though this connection can be used in over 90% of household applications, EWS, Inc. can not anticipate all the different locations, applications and
materials used by your builder and/or plumbing contractor or any pre-existing situations regarding your household or sink piping and cannot be responsible
for additional parts that may be necessary. Proper connection should meet all local codes. If necessary contact a qualified licensed plumber for another
part or method to properly install this system.
Instructions from the bag containing the supplied connection
From parts bag locate: Angle Stop Valve
5 feet of red or orange 1/4” tubing (the proper tubing from the water supply to the system)
Step 1
BEST METHOD: Shut off the main water supply to the house and open the kitchen faucet to relieve
water pressure in the hard pipe. Once water stops flowing from the kitchen faucet, shut off the water
supply at brass or chrome supply valve. This is the shut off valve for the cold water side of the faucet
under the sink (see illustration)
NOTE: Shutting the angle stop only, still leaves water in that pipe.
Step 2
Disconnect riser from brass or chrome supply valve.
This is the cold water line that feeds your existing kitchen faucet.
Step 3
Ensure that the sealing gasket is fully seated into the angle stop valve female thread.
Step 4
Install angle stop valve on supply valve.
Step 5
Connect the riser to the angle stop valve.
Step 6
Fully insert red tubing into the quick connect fitting on the side of the angle stop valve.
CAUTION: USE ONLY COLD WATER LINE. NOT INTENDED FOR SUPPLY BY HOT WATER.
After complete installation of the system, open main water supply to the house and open all valves
and check for any leaks.
