CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY
When connecting the water supply, follow these guidelines:
• Review the local plumbing codes before you install the unit.
• In most instances, the cold water supply will come from the
basement through a hole in the floor.
• The water pressure should be between 20 and 120 psi.
If you are using a filter system you will need to have at least
20 psi for 3 minutes every 15 minutes.
•Install a SHUT-OFF VALVE in the 1/4" supply line (not
supplied with unit).
• Connect sufficient tubing to the unit to allow the unit to be
moved for cleaning and servicing. However, make certain that
the tubing is not pinched or damaged during installation.
• U-Line recommends the use of copper tubing for installation.

1. Locate the compression fitting and ferrule packed in the unit. Slide
the compression fitting and ferrule over the 1/4" water supply
line. Do not use thread sealing compound or tape. Using two
wrenches, tighten the compression fitting on the supply line (see
Figure 5).
