Connecting The Distilled Waterline; Start-Up - Pure Water A-12 Owner's Manual

C. CONNECTING THE DISTILLED WATERLINE
Locate the parts kit bag identified "Distilled
Waterline Hookup Kit".
Note: Always use food-grade tubing (as
included with the kit) for plumbing distilled
water. NEVER USE COPPER, as it can dissolve
in distilled water.
a) Insert the 3/8" elbow into the fitting
marked "DISTILLED WATER OUT"
(blue fitting) on the rear of the unit (see
figure 4). Press in firmly.
Note: If you purchased a pressure tank for your
A-12, please take note of installation instructions
included with your Pressure Tank Kit now. If
no pressure tank will be used, please proceed.
b) Cut the required length of 3/8" plastic
tubing to run from the "DISTILLED WATER OUT" elbow on the rear of the unit to the post
filter inlet. Insert one end of the tubing into the "DISTILLED WATER OUT" elbow. Press
in firmly. Insert the other end into the post filter inlet (see figure 6 on page 13). Press in
firmly.
c) Wrap the stem of the faucet with Teflon tape and install the faucet at the desired point of
dispensing as shown in figure 5.
Note: The channel washer and stem nut should be tightened fully and be flush to the
bottom of the sink top to hold the faucet in place.
d) Determine the correct length of 3/8" tubing needed to connect the distiller to the faucet.
Cut and route the tubing to the desired locations.
e) Install the 3/8" speed fitting onto the bottom of the threaded stem of the faucet (with
Teflon tape). Insert the tubing securely into the end of the fitting. Pull to test.
Note: We recommend that you secure the 3/8" saterline to floor joists or other structural
members of the house to preven the tubing from banging during water dispensing.

START-UP

IMPORTANT NOTE: Open the boiling tank lid and remove the wire tie restraining the float.
This is used to prevent damage during shipment.
Note: This system must be fully grounded at all times. The electrical receptacle you use must be a
fully grounded, single phase, AC 115-120 volt (240 volt in some locations), 20 amp minimum
circuit. Where a two-pronged wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to contact a qualified electrician and have it replaced with a properly
grounded three-pronged wall receptacle or have a grounding adaptor properly grounded. If an
extension cord must be used, it should be a 3 wire, 20 amp minimum cord.
