WATER REQUIREMENTS
The best type of water for coffee brewing is normal hard (tap) water. If your location
has chemically softened water, you should do one of the following things:
• Have a non-softened supply line run to the merchandiser
• Contact your local water filter supplier for information and suggestions
Well water can also be used in the Hot Drink Machine. However, you should
have it checked for levels of carbonates and alkalies. Contact your water filter
supplier if these values are relatively high.
What is the Water Pressure at Your Location?
It should be no less than: 10 psi ( 69.0 KPa) at 1/2 gallon/minute
And no more than: 80 psi (522.0 KPa) at 1/2 gallon/minute
If you're not sure about the pressure and flow rate, check with your water company.
What to do With the Water Supply Line:
Locate the supply line at the rear of your merchandiser.
Equip the line with a shut-off valve.
Flush the water supply line before connecting it to the merchandiser. A minimum of
five gallons is usually required before connecting the merchandiser to the supply line.
DO NOT flush the merchandiser water system. If you do, you might introduce water
line contaminants into the merchandiser.
