including the following:
Consult a plumber to connect cop-
per tubing to household plumbing
to assure compliance with local
codes and ordinances.
Confirm water pressure to water
valve is between 20 and 100 PSI. If
water filter is installed, water pres-
sure to water valve must be a min-
imum of 35 PSI.
DO NOT use a self-piercing, or
saddle valve. Both reduce water
flow, become clogged with time,
and may cause leaks if repair is
attempted.
Tighten nuts by hand to prevent
cross threading. Finish tightening
nuts with pliers and wrenches. DO
NOT overtighten.
Wait 24 hours before placing unit
into final position to check and cor-
rect any water leaks.
