DRAFTMASTER
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Thank you for purchasing
the DraftMaster Glycol
Chiller. The DraftMaster can
be used for the following
applications:
•
Use the built-in pump
to cool a trunk line in
a commercial draft
installation.
•
Use the built-in pump to
cool a single glycol-ready
draft tower in a home or
commercial installation.
•
Using CO , push beer
2
through the 4 stainless
coils submerged in the
glycol bath. This allows you
to store kegs warm yet
serve cold beer.
ATTENTION
We recommend you use a 20%
glycol/80% water solution in your
bath to eliminate freezing.
Assembly Instructions
①
Unpack your unit, then unscrew and remove the top cover.
②
Unpack the accessories box located under the top cover. Install the drain plug
on the red rubber tube sticking out the back of the unit. If you will be using

③
Unscrew and remove the 3-piece reservoir cover.
TIP — Take note of which side the slot is located on.
Take note of which side the slot is located on.
④
Fill the reservoir with a 20% propylene
glycol solution – 4 parts RO/distilled/
deionized water to 1 part 99.9%
propylene glycol.
If you choose to use water only – it is
best to use tap water as RO/distilled/
deionized water on its own may
damage the heat exchanger.
