1.0 INTRODUCTION The VERTEX Pure Water Cooler products are a means to produce and dispense good-tasting, safe water without using “bottles of stored water”. The Pure Water Cooler taps into your city or well water supply to efficiently fil- ter out tastes and odor, and to remove molecular contaminants by using reverse osmosis technology: The Models are: 2000 and 3000 Model.
2.0 RECEIVING THE COOLER 2.1 Unpacking (All Models) The PureWaterCooler™ is shipped completely assembled and ready to operate. Remove the top of the box and slide the PureWaterCooler™ out and save the box and packing materials. 2.2 Inspection Inspect the cooler for shipping damage. Look at the exterior panels to see if they have been dented or damaged.

3.2 Positioning the Cooler There are some precautions in locating and using the PureWaterCooler™. See the items in Figure 4 below. In addition, the cooler must be located near the supply water, and for the “R” version with reverse osmosis filter, there must be access to a drain trap to which the reject water from the RO is delivered.
3.3 Cooler Water Connections (See Fig.5) When received, the water connections on the back have color coded tube sections with red shipping plugs in them. These tube sections must be removed before making water connections. To remove the tube sections see figure 7 “Disconnect”.
3.4 Feed Water Connections To connect the feedwater, use the supplied self-piercing saddle valve to connect to the cold water supply line under the sink. Attach the 1/4-inch tubing to the com- pression fitting on the side of the valve. Clamp the saddle valve over copper or plas- tic feed line (cold water only).
The standard tubing connections on the PureWaterCooler™ are of quick-con- nect o-ring seal design. Use the tubing and follow the instructions below in Fig. 7 to make the connections. If you cut the tubing, make sure it is a square cut, fits square- ly in the fitting and seals properly.
4.0 Operation 4.1 Start-Up Remove front cover by depressing lock tabs on front panel (see fig.1) and pulling forward. With the front cover off, turn the water on at the piercing valve. This brings water to the ball valve. Disconnect the orange tubing from the bottom of the 2nd stage carbon filter and place a pan or bucket underneath the filter to catch water.

4.3 Power Controls, Cold Water Function With the water level indicator showing the main tank full, start operation by producing cold water first. Drain some water from the cold tank through the dispensing spigot, to remove entrapped air-you may have to do this several times. Then press the “Cold Power”...
5.0 Model 1000 and 1010 Description 5.1 Model 1000 and 1010 The Model 1000 provides water at 2-temperatures , dispensed from two spigots, “hot” and “cold”. The assembly drawing is shown in Figure 8. Water flows from the fil- ter system into the top tank which is also the cold water tank. This tank then feeds the hot tank by gravity.
5.4 Start-Up Flush Open lower front door to access filter assembly, turn the water on at the piercing valve. This brings water to the ball valve. Disconnect the orange tubing from the bottom of the 2nd stage carbon filter and place a pan or bucket under- neath the filter to catch water.
5.5 Tank Flush Flush tanks out by draining all water through the (1) drain plug located on the back of the cooler. Let the tanks fill again with the filtered water. When full, drain water again through the drain ports located on the back as well as through the dis- pensing spigots.
6.0 Other Models 6.1 Model 500 This is a countertop version of the Model 1000, a 2-temperature cooler previously described in section 5.0. It does not have space for the filter package, therefore purified water must be supplied to it. An optional filter which can be attached to the back of the unit can be ordered.
7.0 Options Options/Accessories to the cooler are described below. 7.1 UV Stage An additional stage after the filters is available for all models. The UV stage pro- vides a UV light which disinfects the water. This option is installed at the factory as an additional stage of the filter system.
f) Place new filters in the plastic holding clips. Make the tubing connections into the fittings. BUT DO NOT CONNECT THE OUTLET TUBING OF THE 2ND STAGE CARBON FILTER. g) Open ball valve and let water flow through filters into a bucket or pan to push out air and any carbon fines.
9.0 Cleaning and Maintenance These instructions apply tto the model 2000, 3000 and 600 specifically, but can be applied to other models. 9.2 Remove the top cover, hot water 9.1 Before cleaning water dispenser tank cover and the water outlet tube make sure that power cord is pulled on main water tank.
