TYPICAL INSTALLATIONS

Step 4 - Connect Cold Water Supply

Check Filter in Quick-Connect Fitting

The cone-shaped screen filter comes seated inside the quick-connect fitting with the narrow end pointing
towards the cap which is also attached to the fitting. (The open or wide end of the screen is inserted into
the fitting.) However, the filter may become dislodged in the shipping process. Check to see that it is
seated correctly within the fitting. If the cap is still in place, pop cap off by slipping a screwdriver into the
notch and lift off. Gently pull on the screen. If it comes loose, push in with a light jiggling or wiggling
motion until it snaps into place. If installed properly, a gentle pull should not dislodge it.

Refer to installation instructions included with faucet if necessary.

Cold water is supplied to the tank through the faucet. Connect the cold water line to the faucet using the
1/4” (6.4 mm) supply line and the quick-connect fitting that contains a cone shaped screen filter (supplied
with the tank.) The cap end of the fitting connects to the faucet line.

Make sure the cold water connecting to the faucet is filtered. Use an Everpure Commerical Grade
Filter System to provide filtered water. Refer to the Everpure Filter System Install and Operation
Manual for installation procedures.

It is suggested that a shut-off valve be installed between this connection and the cold water supply line.
Another common installation method is with the use of a saddle valve illustrated below. If a saddle valve
is used, follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions.
