Precautions
The plumbing installation must be undertaken in accordance with local water
authority regulations and these Installation instructions.
As the installer, it is your responsibility to supply (if necessary) and install all valves
as required by local regulations and relevant standards.
The chiller and filtration systems are indoor units and must not be exposed to the
elements.
Take care, when bending rigid plastic tubing, to prevent it from kinking or crushing
around a bend. The plastic tubing contains water under mains pressure, be careful
not to nick, scratch or damage it during installation.
Cut the tube squarely with a sharp knife or tube cutter. Shake out and remove any
swarf and debris before connection.
Ensure there is adequate ventilation available through the chiller space. If there
is inadequate ventilation, and the chiller space temperature rises to above 40°C,
the chiller may become damaged and malfunction, which will void the product
warranty.
For the CH103 there must be a minimum 168cm2of cross-flow ventilation. Suitable
holes or vents will need to be cut into the cupboard and door.
If the incoming mains cold water supply pressure exceeds 0.7 MPa (7.0 bar) a
pressure reducing valve is required to be fitted in the supply line, (see Spare parts
and accessories, page 3).
Electrical
Electrical connection must be made by a Zip service engineer or a qualified
electrician. (See Safety information, page 2).
This appliance must be earthed.
DO NOT turn the electricity supply on until the system has been purged. (See
Commissioning, page 9).

Refer to the configuration diagram page 6.
Note It is important to install an isolating valve (not supplied) in the incoming mains
cold water supply line before the connection to Zip chiller products.
Installing the chiller and filter head
Site the under counter chiller unit into the cupboard as close to the dispensing tap
position as is possible, to minimise the length of tubing exposed between the chiller
unit and the dispensing tap. Secure the filter head to the wall, cupboard side or
back (with the 2off 3/4” self tap screws provided) in a convenient location between
the incoming mains water supply and the chiller unit, again minimise tube lengths
where possible. Allow 260mm minimum clearance between the underside of the
filter head and any obstructions .
Allow an envelope of at least 50mm around the chiller unit to permit free airflow.
Both the top and the front of the chiller must remain accessible for servicing
purposes.
Electrical connection
Electrical connection must be made by a Zip service engineer or a qualified
electrician. (See Safety information page 2).
Connect to water supply
Install the isolation valve (not supplied) in the mains cold water supply line, in the
under-counter cupboard space. Using the 15mm compression fitting supplied,
connect the pressure limiting multifunction valve assembly to the incoming water
supply line.
Note Before assembling the compression fitting to the valve, apply sufficient PTFE
tape to the thread to ensure a water tight connection.
Do not turn the water on until the complete system has been connected.
Installing the tap
Install the Heavy duty ChillTap®in a position where there is a Ø45mm wide flat
area within the draining area of the sink, ensuring that the selected position allows
the water from the spout to safely drain away.
Use a 22mm sheet metal punch to create a neat hole without burrs.
Remove the plastic nut and lower rubber washer from the base of the tap, leaving
the rubber-sealing ring in place, then fit the tap in place, oriented so that the lever
is operated towards the user.
Slide the lower rubber washer and plastic nut over the tap connection tubes, (under
the sink), and tighten the nut to secure the tap firmly into place.
Connecting the system together
Note Ensure that the plastic pipes from the chiller unit are insulated with the tube
insulation provided, use any tube insulation left over to insulate pipes from the lter
head.
The pressure limiting multifunction valve supplied must be fitted.
Ensure that all connections to push fit fittings are pushed in past the O-ring to full
depth, at least 15-16mm (see diagrams opposite).
Connect the white tube from the tap to the outlet of the filter housing. (marked with
arrow pointing away from filter head), trim to length before fitting.
Connect the red tube from the tap to the push fit fitting marked INLET on the top
right rear of the chiller unit, trim to length before fitting.

CH104 Wall Fountain installation instructions
Zip Wall Fountain should only be installed by a competent installer in accordance
with local water authority by-laws and these instructions.
Zip Wall Fountain is designed to be recess mounted within a wall. The bottom
should sit on a supporting flat and level plinth at least 100mm above finished floor
level. The plinth height determines the final height of the dispensing tap, as the tap
base is fixed at 915mm above the bottom of the unit.
Check that there is enough free space within the wall to allow for completely
recessing the Wall Fountain. The top half recesses 270mm and the bottom half
requires a depth of 350mm to allow for the chiller unit and to provide adequate
ventilation space.
Wall cut-out
The cut-out dimensions are 1630mm high by 555mm wide.
The Wall Fountain has a 40mm flange on both sides and the top, designed to cover
gaps or rough edges to the recessed aperture. The bottom front edge has no flange,
so the plinth must be finished level and neat as it will always remain visible.
Ensure the cut-out is square and even to allow the Wall Fountain to fit without
distortion.

Note It is important to install an isolating valve (not supplied) in the incoming
mains cold water supply line before the connection to Zip chiller products.
Positioning and installing the Wall Fountain cabinet and chiller unit
Fit the Wall Fountain cabinet into the recessed aperture in the wall until the
surrounding flange is flush with the front face of the wall. Anchor the Wall
Fountain securely to prevent movement. Secure the filter head to the wall in a
convenient location (with the 2off 3/4” self tap screws provided) between the
incoming mains water supply and the chiller unit, minimise tube lengths where
possible.
The chiller unit sits on the base tray of the Wall Fountain cabinet.
Allow at least 50mm all around the chiller unit for free airflow ventilation.
Electrical connection
Electrical connection must be made by a Zip service engineer or a qualified
electrician. (See Safety information page 2).
Connect to drainage piping
Connect the 40mm PVC drain pipe from the sink bowl to an appropriate waste
in accordance with local by-laws.
Keep the drainage piping clear of the chiller space, approx. 380mm above the
base tray.
Connect to water supply
Install an isolation valve in the incoming mains cold water supply line in the
area behind the Wall Fountain so that it can be accessed through the front
louvered panel.
Using the 15mm compression fitting supplied, connect the pressure limiting
multifunction valve assembly to the incoming mains cold water supply line.
Note Before assembling the compression fitting to the valve, apply sufficient
PTFE tape to the thread to ensure a water tight connection.
Do not turn the water on until the complete system has been connected.
Installing the tap
Remove the plastic nut and lower rubber washer from the base of the tap,
leaving the rubber-sealing ring in place.
Fit the tap in place in the hole provided on the front left hand edge of the
basin, oriented so that the lever is operated towards the user.
Slide the lower rubber washer and plastic nut over the tap connection tubes,
(under the sink bowl), and tighten the nut to secure the tap firmly into place.
Connecting the system together

Operation
Commissioning
Operation
Chilled water is obtained by pulling the lever on the tap forward. The water is
chilled by a refrigeration unit fitted within the under counter chiller.
Using the Heavy Duty ChillTap®,you can obtain chilled water within the rated
capacity for as long as you pull forward the lever. The lever will self return,
and close the tap once finger pressure has been removed.
Commissioning
Ensure all pipes and cables are secure. After the system is correctly installed
and connected, turn the incoming mains cold water supply on. Check all
connections for leaks. Repair as necessary, again turn on the incoming mains
cold water supply and then the electricity supply.
The chiller unit takes up to 20 minutes to chill its contents to the rated
temperature, depending on the ambient temperature of the water.
Following installation, the chiller system will contain air, which needs to
be purged. To purge the system of air follow the instruction in the Filter
replacement section below.
CH104 remove the protective wrapping & clean the stainless steel surfaces.
Dispose of the packaging wisely.

Filter replacement
Changing the filter
For safe operation, the filter cartridge should be replaced at least every 6-12
months, or earlier if you notice a persistent reduction in water pressure from
the tap or an unpleasant taste or odour in the water.
For safe operation, thoroughly flush the water through after periods of
non-use longer than 12 hours.
Not changing the filter cartridges when required may cause the water to
become biologically unsafe.
Use only a Zip filter to match the one used in your chiller product (see Spare
parts and accessories page 3). The filter cartridge can be obtained through
plumbing suppliers or direct from Zip. The filter is located behind the front
access panel on the CH104. The installation date should be written on the
filter cartridge. No special tools or skills are required to install the filter
cartridge.
• For the CH104, unlock the front louvre panel to locate the filter. For the
CH103, locate the filter in the under-sink cupboard.
• Grasp the lter cartridge rmly and twist it horizontally a quarter turn
clockwise until it stops.
Some water will drip from the filter head during the replacement
process so it is a good idea to have a bucket and cloth handy to catch
and mop up any spills.
• Gently ease the cartridge downwards to detach it from the lter head,
then pull it out and discard responsibly. Take care not to tip it up once

Service
Cleaning
Cleaning
Never use strong, corrosive or abrasive cleaning materials on the Zip ChillTap®
,Wall Fountain or under counter chiller unit. Wipe clean the outer surfaces with
a sponge or a soft cloth using a mild soap and water.
The louvres on the sides of the chiller unit and the Wall Fountain cabinet need
to be kept free of dust and lint to permit free flow of air through the vents. They
should be checked regularly, at least monthly, and dusted or vacuumed.
Service
There are no user serviceable parts but there are dangerous voltages present
within the under counter chiller unit. All service work must only be carried out
by a suitably qualified and experienced trades-person.
Before calling for service, check that both the water and electricity supplies are
turned on and functional.
Call Zip, a qualified electrician or plumber for assistance, service, spare parts,
or enquiries.
Zip customer service 0845 6 005 005, 0345 6 005 005.
Filter replacement continued
free as water may spill out.
• Write the date of replacement on the new lter cartridge label.
• Remove the protective plastic cap. The insertion method is the opposite to
the removal method. Align the tabs of the replacement cartridge with the
lter head and insert it up into the lter head.
• Turn the replacement cartridge a quarter turn anti-clockwise until it stops
and locks into position.
• When the lter replacement has been completed, purge the system of
trapped air by dispense water from the tap until it ows without any further
spluttering. Run the water for at least 2 minutes more to complete the
purge.
• For the CH104 ret the front louvred panel, clean any marks on the
stainless steel surface, wipe dry any water spills.
