Installer
IMPORTANT! INSTALLER PLEASE NOTE.
THE GROUNDING OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT SUCH AS TELEPHONE, COMPUTERS, ETC. TO
WATER LINES IS A COMMON PROCEDURE. THIS GROUNDING MAY BE IN THE BUILDING OR MAY
OCCUR AWAY FROM THE BUILDING. THIS GROUNDING CAN CAUSE ELECTRICAL FEEDBACK INTO A
FOUNTAIN, CREATING AN ELECTROLYSIS WHICH CAUSES AMETALLIC TASTE OR AN INCREASE IN
THE METAL CONTENT OF THE WATER. THIS CONDITION IS AVOIDABLE BY USING THE PROPER
MATERIALS AS INDICATED. ANY DRAIN FITTINGS PROVIDED BY THE INSTALLER SHOULD BE MADE
OF PLASTIC TO ELECTRICALLY ISOLATE THE FOUNTAIN FROM THE BUILDING PLUMBING SYSTEM.

ASSEMBLY
1. Assemble support brackets to the fountain by aligning holes in bracket with holes in cooler and fastening with
(4) #10 screws provided.
2. Attach bubbler to fountain by inserting bubbler nipple through the hole in the cooler top and securing
with the washer and nut provided.
INSTALLATION
1. This fountain is to be mounted on a smooth, flat, finished wall surface, with adequate support structure.
2. Establish rim height fountain is to be mounted.
3. Refer to rough-in for plumbing.
4. Locate and install trap. (Trap not included).
5. Install shut-off valve on building water supply. (Shut off valve not furnished).
6. Locate and install hanger bracket using 1/4" (10mm) lag screws or bolts. (Not included).
7. Install and center fountain on hanger bracket by slipping the back edge of the cooler top over the
flange on the hanger bracket. Secure fountain using 1/4" (10mm) minimum lag screws or bolts (Not
included).
CAUTION: This fountain is rated for inlet water pressure of 20-105 psi. Should the inlet water supply exceed
105 psi, a pressure reducing regulator should be used.
8. Connect fountain to building supply line by running a 3/8" (10mm) water line between the shut-off
valve and fountain.
9. Turn "ON" water supply and check all connections for leaks.
10. Adjust bubbler stream height. (See instructions below).
TROUBLE SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
Orifice Assy: Mineral deposits on orifice can cause water flow to spurt or not regulate. Mineral deposits may be
removed from the orifice with a small round file not over 1/8" diameter or small diameter wire.
CAUTION: DO NOT file or cut orifice material.
Stream Regulator: If orifice is clean, regulate flow as stated below. If replacement is necessary, see parts list for
correct regulator part number.
STREAM HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT: Stream height is factory set
at 45-50 PSI. If supply pressure varies greatly from this, remove
items 11, and 12 (See figure 2) from bubbler assembly and
adjust the screw on the regulator (Item 15). Clockwise adjust-
ment will raise stream height and counterclockwise will lower
the stream height. A stream height of 1-1/2" (38mm) is recom-
mended.
