Use of tools can be hazardous. Assess the risks before you start.
Use instructions supplied with individual kit parts.
A clearance envelope around all Command Centers must be provided to allow ventilation for the safe and effective use of the HydroTap system.
CS100 models
The vent tray must be fitted. It provides a safe exhaust for refrigerant gas in the unlikely event of a leak.

If cupboard temperature exceeds 95°F, (35°C) additional ventilation is required.
Contact your Zip service provider for options (including additional vents and fan kit).
White tube to SPARKLING outlet of Command Center
Carbonation valve flow adjustment
Valves and fittings must be sealed with PTFE tape if compression seals are not included.
Note Mixer faucet installations also use a 'Tee piece' as part of the water supply plumbing connections, see the Faucet installation instructions supplied with the Mixer to connect the water supply if using the mixer faucet option.
Note correct strainer orientation.
Be aware of the risks of hazards which could cause harm when handling compressed CO2.
Read the safety warnings at the start of this instruction manual. Assess the risks before starting the installation.
Do not proceed if the seals are damaged.
Take care not to cross thread the regulator, a cross threaded regulator poses a potential hazard.
Care must be taken when working with high pressure carbon dioxide, and in no case should the normal operating pressure of 43.5 psi (3 bar) be exceeded.
Test for leaks in these areas
For HydroTap, mixer tap and any optional accessories, use instructions supplied with individual kit components.
Mains power cable
Do not connect to the mains socket until commissioning
USB
HydroTap models are available for either 110-120VAC 50/60Hz or 230VAC 50/60Hz installations. Ensure the electrical power supply at the installation site is suitable for your HydroTap. Use only the power lead supplied with the product.
Connect the power lead to the HydroTap and connect the plug into the electrical power outlet, ensuring both ends are securely engaged to reduce the risk of overheating.
Take care to use correctly, see above

HydroTap Clean is a first to market cleaning process for HydroTap systems comprised of the HydroTap Clean solution, dosing adaptor and smart firmware. The HydroTap Clean process is automated and gently cleans the chilled and sparkling water paths during the commissioning of a new HydroTap Command Centre.
The HydroTap Clean solution is:
Safe, natural, certified organic, PH neutral, biodegradable solution produced by electrochemically activated water acting like a detergent. HydroTap Clean is also non-corrosive to gently clean the chilled and sparkling internal water paths of your new HydroTap.

Do not connect the parts together before carefully reading/following instructions.
All HydroTap models that have sparkling/carbonated water functionality include the following integral Backflow Prevention.
Main Water Inlet
The Dual Check Valve (DCV) on the Mains Water inlet connection is designed to ensure a uniform direction of flow throughout the HydroTap. This valve configuration eliminates any possible contamination of the mains water supply, caused by backflow or back siphonage and is a secondary safety feature in the case of the inlet safety solenoid. The DCV also maintains a constant pressure upstream of the inlet safety solenoid. There are two (2) operating principles:
The HydroTap MUST NOT be operated without the Dual Check Valves in place.
Internal Carbonator
There are two (2) Check Valves on the internal Carbonator. The Check Valves ensure the flow of CO2 gas and water is maintained in one direction, into the carbonator. These valves help to maintain the pressure needed to ensure the gas remains dissolved in the water while inside the carbonator. The Check Valves are designed to stop any backflow of gas and/or water out of the internal carbonator.
In addition to the HydroTap's integral Backflow prevention
Some authorities require additional Backflow Prevention to be installed to comply with the Local, State or Federal plumbing code requirements. Both the Universal Plumbing Code (UPC) and National Standard Plumbing Code (NSPC) require the use of an American Society of Sanitary Engineers (ASSE) 1022 backflow preventer on the supply to carbonators under UPC 603.5.12 and NSPC 10.5.8.
UPC: "Potable water supply to beverage dispensers, carbonated beverage dispensers, or coffee machines shall be protected by an air gap or a vented backflow preventer in accordance with ASSE 1022. For carbonated beverage dispensers, piping material installed downstream of the backflow preventer shall not be affected by carbon dioxide gas".
NSPC: "The water supply to a carbonated beverage dispenser shall be protected against backflow with an integral backflow preventer conforming to ASSE 1022 or an air gap. Carbonated beverage dispensers and carbonated beverage dispensing systems without an integral backflow preventer conforming to ASSE 1022 or an air gap shall have the water supply protected with double check valve and atmospheric vent conforming to ASSE 1022."
In order to comply with this requirement the Installer MUST install an ASSE 1022 approved backflow device on the water supply leading to the HydroTap. This will ensure compliance with the requirement to protect the potable water supply to the carbonated beverage dispenser.

*Available in a range of premium metallic finishes. XX refers to the specific finish of the faucet.
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. The term 'bacteriostatic' means that the system limits the passage or growth of bacteria that may already exist in the incoming water. It does not mean that the water leaving the system is safer to drink than the water entering the system.
Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected waters that may contain filterable cysts.
See the installation manual for installation, maintenance requirements and warranty.

Compliance
All Plumbing and Electrical connections must comply with local, state and federal codes.
All Plumbing and Electrical connections must be made in accordance with local regulations.
Ensure the electrical power supply at the installation site is suitable for your HydroTap.
HydroTap models are rated for the following installations:
Safety
This appliance is not intended for use by children under 8 years or persons (including children under 8 years) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Ventilation
Keep ventilation openings, in the appliance enclosure or in the built-in structure, clear of obstruction.
Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process, other than those recommended by the manufacturer.
Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with a flammable propellant in this appliance.
CO2
Qualifications
To avoid hazards, all installation procedures must be carried out by a suitably qualified tradesperson. The power cable and power outlet must be in a safe visible position for connection.
Venting
Sometimes steam and / or boiling water droplets may discharge through a vent outlet on the tap. If not using the font, ensure the tap body is located so the tap outlet safely dispenses into the sink bowl.
Lifting
Take care when lifting. The Command Center may exceed safe lifting limits. If you feel this is beyond your personal capabilities, please seek assistance with the lift. The weight of the Command Center is marked on the packaging. Do not lift the Command Center by the front cover or any of its connections.
Airflow
The ambient operating temperatures, when installed in a cabinet, must be between 41 - 95ºF, (5 - 35ºC). The system will operate satisfactorily only with proper air ventilation. Air gaps of 2",(50mm) on each side, and 8",(200mm) above must be provided. See "Set up the ventilation" section for correct ventilation details.
Frost protection
If the HydroTap is located where the ambient air temperature could fall below 41ºF, (5ºC) when the system is not in use, do not turn off the Command Center electrically. This safeguard does not offer the same protection to the connecting pipework and fittings.
Application
The HydroTap G5 Home series is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as:
Compressed gas warning - HydroTap Clean can
