• 6 1/4 in. (159mm) dimension from wall to centerline of trap must be maintained for
proper t.
• Anchor hanger securely to wall using all ve (5) 1/4 in. dia. mounting holes.
3) Install straight valve for 3/8” O.D. tube.
INSTALLATION OF COOLER

in the slots on the cooler back as shown in Figure 2.
5) Loosen the two (2) screws holding the lower front panel at the bottom of cooler base
and two (2) screws at the top (Use torx bits sold separately). Remove the front panel
and set aside.
6) Connect water inlet line--See Note 4 of General Instructions.

8) Stream height is factory set at 45-50 PSI. If supply pressure varies greatly from this,
adjust screw using the access hole in the pushbutton (insert screwdriver). CW adjust-
ment will raise stream and CCW adjustment will lower stream. For best adjustment,
stream should hit basin approximately 6-1/2” (165mm) from bubbler.

Heater Strip Detail
WARNING!
This unit is frost resistant down to 0° F with no wind. Pre-
vailing winds can reduce the ability of the heater element
to prevent light freezing. If the ambient air temperature will
drop below 0° F, the cooler needs to be drained of all water
by blowing out all water lines, evaporator (item 20), and the
drain trap. A heater strip is used to heat the unit and will
begin to cycle at 40° +/- 5° F. A check at this temperature
will ensure the heater is working and the unit is resistant to
light freezing.
ALSO, MAKE SURE THERE ARE NO PLASTIC OR FLAM-
MABLE COMPONENTS DIRECTLY ABOVE THE HEATER
STRIP.
