What Should You Know Before You Begin

Connecting the dispenser to your regular water supply requires no special
plumbing. All details are covered in the installation instructions. Be sure that all
plumbing connections conform to your applicable local codes. If your water supply
contains sand, grit or other suspended particles, the use of a filter is recom-
mended. The filter should not result in the water pressure to the dispenser drop-
ping below 20 pounds per square inch (138kPa). This could prevent the unit from
aspirating properly.
A standard 115-volt grounded electrical outlet is required under the sink for the
dispenser's electrical power. The current drain is 6.5 amps only when the tank is
heating. Assure that all electrical wiring and connections conform to applicable
codes. Note: The wall outlet to your dispenser must have power supplied to
it continuously and must be fused. It should not be controlled by the same
wall switch that operates your disposer.
