ot
owner.
Should a chiller,
such as the
E
vEr
C
old
®
, be used with the
E
vEr
H
ot
,
the undersink chiller should be installed in the line after
the drinking water system and before the E
vEr
H
ot
faucet connection (blue tube).

Note: Chiller is not applicable if installing the models 500H, 510H, 610H, and 630H (HOT ONLY).
10. Connect 5/16” Teflon
®
tubing from faucet to top center outlet tube on the tank using the
5/16” x 3/8” reducing union provided. Reducing union MUST be used. DO NOT insert Teflon
®
tube di-
rectly into tank outlet tube. Tubing should be cut squarely to proper length using a sharp knife or di-
agonal side cutting pliers.
DO NOT PULL, PUSH, REMOVE OR OTHERWISE ATTEMPT TO MOVE OR
ADJUST TEFLON TUBE (CLEAR/WHIE PLASTIC TUBE INSIDE THE FAUCET SPOUT AND THROUGH
BODY).
If tube is too short to reach tank, an extension tube and special coupling is available from the
Water, Inc. Service Department (800) 322-9283. Insert end of tubing fully into blue collet of special fitting.
IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT THE TEFLON TUBING IS NOT LEFT IN A KINKED POSITION. WATER FLOW-
ING INTO HEATING TANK WITH TUBE KINKED OR OTHERWISE OBSTRUCTED WILL CAUSE PERMA-
NENT DAMAGE TO INTERNAL TANK PARTS AND VOIDS PRODUCT WARRANTY.
Positioning tank directly
beneath faucet and cutting tube to proper length will help avoid kinks in Teflon tubing. Note: If needed,
a special 90°adaptor fitting is available from the Water, Inc. Service Department for a nominal charge.
11. Turn on water supply and flip up or open valve on the
HOT (red dot)
lever on the E
vEr
H
ot
faucet.
NOTE:
The tank can
only be filled by operating the hot (red dot) lever. Do not operate both levers to fill tank. This allows the
heating tank to fill with water. When water flows from faucet into the sink, flip lever off or close valve and
inspect for leaks now that faucet is pressurized. Tighten any leaking fittings.
NOTE: FAILURE TO COMPLETELY FILL HEATING TANK WITH WATER BEFORE CONNECTING POWER
CORD TO OUTLET WILL CAUSE
PERMANENT DAMAGE
TO HEATING ELEMENT AND TANK SEALS
(VOIDING WARRANTY) AS WELL AS CAUSE AN UNPLEASANT TASTE AND BLACK SPECKS IN THE
WATER.
11A. SPECIAL NOTE: When installing E
vEr
H
ot
with a new reverse osmosis (R.O.) type water
filter, several hours of R.O. system operation may be needed to produce enough water to ensure
adequate filling of the E
vEr
H
ot
tank.
12. Plug power supply cord into a properly grounded 115V wall outlet. Turn thermostat knob clockwise to the
highest setting. Maximum temperature will be reached in about 10-15 minutes and dispenser will be ready for
use.
Lower the temperature setting slightly if you ever notice excessive vapor or boiling noise during
the heating cycle.
The thermostat knob controls the water temperature, not the water delivery. To raise or lower
the water temperature, adjust the thermostat knob accordingly.
Some dripping from the spout during the heating cycle, especially upon initial start-up, is normal and is due
to the expansion of water in the heating tank.
13. After-Installation EverHot Tips for Long-Term Care:
• If
E
vEr
H
ot
system will be unused for more then 5 consecutive days, turn thermostat knob to
off position, or unplug tank to prevent damage due to excessive evaporation of water.
• If you shut off the water supply to your
E
vEr
H
ot
tank, for example to change your water filter,
turn water supply back on SLOWLY, do not “rush” the water back into your
E
vEr
H
ot
tank.
• Read the Decorative Faucet Finish Care sheet to learn how to clean and care for your
E
vEr
H
