HOT TANKS:
After hot water has been dispensed during normal usage, the
tank immediately starts the reheating process to bring the water
in the tank back up to the temperature the customer has set on
the thermostat. During that time, the water will expand and
sometimes condense on the inside of the spout delivery tube
and the unit may drip for a couple of minutes until the water in
the tank reaches the set temperature. Normally, the heating
process at startup or re-heating from a completely cold tank (two
quarts) to the highest temperature setting takes no more than
20 minutes. Again, this is normal for a vented faucet system.
However, excessive pressure is not recommended for the hot
tank installation, and recommends no more that 60 psi of
incoming water pressure to provide the maximum performance
from your system.
CHILLERS:
In case of a chiller in the vented loop, run on still may occur.
The chiller is actually a pressure vessel, and will hold some
residual pressure after the valve is closed. The higher the inlet
pressure to the faucet, the more backpressure will be present in
the chiller tank increasing any run-on time. We recommend no
more than 60 psi of inlet pressure to provide the maximum
performance.
In addition, this is a new technology chiller unit. The chiller is a
thermoelectric type unit that removes heat from the water to
drop its temperature. There are no moving parts like an old noisy
compressor type unit. However, if the temperature under the sink
or in the location installed begins to rise above 90 degrees F, the
units’ ability to continue to chill will be degraded. With that in
mind, installation of the provided vent fan is necessary to
maximize the units’ cold performance. The vent fan will quietly
evacuate the warm air in a confined install and maximize the
working efficiency of the chiller unit. This is particularly impor-
tant when installing the chiller alongside a hot tank unit that is
production heat.
WATER PRESSURE:
Inlet pressure above 60 psi may cause the water to “cavitate”
inside the filtration system when water is dispensed, this creates
tiny air bubbles resulting in water that looks cloudy. If the water
is left to stand and clears after a few minutes it verifies an
overpressure condition in the filtration system – not a defect on
the faucet , chiller, or hot tank. If the water remains cloudy, check
the water source or filtration system. As always, never run hot
water through a filter system.
IMPORTANT NOTE TO INSTALLERS AND CUSTOMERS:
Vented Faucets do no shut off like standard faucets! The valve
shuts off pressure in front of the chiller or hot tank, and like a
garden hose, the pressure must take to run the water out of the
end of the faucets spout. This is normal for a vented faucet, and
should not be mistaken for a valve defect or leak.

Installation:
1. Gently straighten supply lines and thread into bottom of faucet. No compound is required;
however, a small amount of silicone seal may be used if desired. Do not over tighten.
2. Place a small bead of silicone seal around the base of the faucet and insert faucet through sink. Using
mounting nut and washer, fasten faucet to sink. Do not over tighten.
3. Attach rubber line to mounting nipple using a nylon pinch clamp.
4. Attach cold water inlet line to cold water supply.
5. Mount Hot water Tank to cabinet wall and hang tank on bracket. Do not plug tank in.
6. Attach cold supply from faucet to corner inlet of tank.
7. Attach adapter to tank outlet and attach rubber hose to tank with the other pinch clamp.
8.Turn on water supply and check for leaks. Operate faucet handles to purge air from the system.
10. Allow tank to come to temperature - empty completely to rinse debris from system.
o
The faucet will leak until the pressure is equalized. This venting prevents the tank from exploding.
