psi (690 kPa). A pressure regulator must be installed in front of the unit’s water inlet if the water
pressure (including any possible pressure spikes) could exceed 100 psi (690 kPa).

chillers, hang upper unit rst and connect chiller tube, provided, containing tee to fountain water
inlet tube with compression tting, provided, and then to chiller unit water out tting. Hang lower
unit next and connect long connecting tube, provided, to tee and then to fountain with other
