Water Supply Connection - U-Line Echelon Combo C2275DWR Installation Manual

6 Prepare Plumbing
Plumbing installation must observe all state and local
codes. All water connections MUST BE made by a licensed/
qualified plumbing contractor. Failure to follow
recommendations and instructions may result in damage
and/or harm.
WARNING
To prevent accidental electrocution, make certain
that the floor surfaces surrounding the unit are
dry whenever power is removed from, or applied
to, the unit.

Water Supply Connection

When connecting the water supply, follow these
guidelines:
• Review the local plumbing codes before you install the
unit.
• Connect to the cold water supply.
• The water pressure should be between 20 and 120 psi.
• Install a shut-off valve in the 1/4 inch Outside Diameter
water supply line.
• Connect sufficient tubing to the unit so that tubing
may be looped, allowing the unit to be removed for
cleaning and servicing (see Figure 25). However, make
certain that the tubing is not pinched or damaged
during installation.
Note: U-Line recommends the use of copper tubing
for installation. The use of other types of tubing is not
recommended due to potential aftertaste & deterioration
over time.
To connect to water supply:
1. Install the 1/4 inch Outside Diameter copper water line
from the main water source (see Figure 23).

2. Locate the compression fitting and ferrule packed with
the unit. Slide the compression fitting and ferrule over
the 1/4-inch Outside Diameter water supply line. Do
not use thread sealing compound or tape. Using two
wrenches, tighten the compression fitting on the
supply line (see Figure 24).
3. Carefully bend the water supply line into position and
connect the line to the solenoid valve (see Figure 25).
Avoid kinking the water supply line.
Figure 25
Normal operation creates some vibration. A water supply
line contacting cabinet wall may cause excessive noise
during operation or damage to the line.
4. Allow extra water supply line length to provide slack for
easy removal from the recessed area (see Figure 25).
This will also safeguard against kinking the line.
