Section 2a: POU Installation
Required Materials and Tools
Lavit ECO3 Filter Kit
¼" NSF approved water tubing
40 psi pressure reducing valve (¼" quick connect fittings recommended)
¼' In line check valve
¼" Shut off valve
Tubing cutter
" It is the responsibility of the installer to follow all local codes during installation"
Dispensers in a POU installation must be connected to a known potable
water supply. It is recommended that the power cord be connected to a
GFI outlet.
Installation Instructions
1. Ensure that the minimum water inlet pressure from the mains supply is 28 psi. Connect to
the water supply using a standard three-way valve connected to an under sink cold water
shut off valve or connect in another acceptable manner to allow for ¼" water tubing to be
connected. Run the tubing to the dispenser so that there is enough excess tubing to allow
movement of the dispenser for service in place.
2. Properly secure the tubing with appropriate fasteners to minimize the possibility of the
tubing being pulled off the mains connection and to provide an aesthetic installation for the
customer.
3. Install the 40-psi pressure reducing valve, the in-line check valve, and the shut off valve on
the water inlet tubing. From the mains connection it is recommended that the sequence is
the PRV followed by the check valve and then the shut off valve. As an option a second shut
off valve can be installed prior to the PRV to allow the removal of all downstream
components.
4. Flush the Lavit ECO3 filter outside of the dispenser to ensure no carbon fines can enter the
dispenser.
