and ezH2O® Bottle Filler

INSTALLER

Review these instructions before beginning installation. Be sure that installation

conforms to all plumbing, electrical and other applicable codes.

When installation is complete, ensure these instructions are left in the plastic bag
provided inside the installed unit for future reference.

Service to be performed by authorized service personnel only.

NOTE: It is common practice to ground electrical hardware such as telephones, computers and other devices
to available water lines. This can, however, cause electrical feedback in the plumbing circuit, which
results in an “electrolysis” effect occurring in the fountain. This may result in water which has a
metallic taste to it or has a noticeable increase in the metallic content of the water.

When inspecting plumbing circuit, remember the line may be grounded some distance from the
installation, and may occur outside the building or area in which the unit is being installed.

This condition can be avoided (in most cases) by using recommended materials during installation.
Any drain fittings provided by the installer should be made of plastic which will electronically isolate
the fountain from the remainder of the building’s plumbing circuits.

1. Make water supply connections (Fig. 10). Install a shut-off valve

and union connection to building water supply (valve and union
not provided). Turn on water supply and flush the line thoroughly.

Figure 2 - EZWS-EDFP217K Tube Routing Caution: DO NOT SOLDER tubes inserted into the
strainer or filter head as damage to the o-rings may result.

2. Install mounting frame (instructions supplied with mounting

frame.

3. (For LZWS-EDFP217K) Install the filter head to the bracket,

then install filter bracket on mounting frame (Fig. 8), plumb from
the filter outlet using the ¼” elbow, poly tubing and ¼ x ¼ x 3/8”
tee, install filter.

3a. (For EZWS-EDFP217K) Install 3/8” tee, copper tubing and

strainer per (Fig. 2).
11 10 4. Install supplied 4” poly tubing and armaflex to the outlet of the
10 previously installed tee or strainer. Connect supplied ¼ x ¼ x ¼
tee to the 4” poly tubing. With the back panel standing close to
the frame, connect 3/8” poly tube to the bottle filler.

23 5. Hang main panel on mounting frame hanger. Make sure the
power cord, reset switch wire & poly tube do not get pinched
10 between the panel & mounting frame. Ensure the panel engages
at the top. Align fountain holes with mounting frame holes.

8. Install fountains with (8) 5/16-18 HHMS & (8) 5/16-18 nuts
27, 28, 29, (provided) (Fig. 5). Connect the ¼” water lines from each
30 & 31 fountain to the remaining openings on the tee at the remote
5 chiller (cut lines to fit as needed).

9. Attach waste tubes (1-1/4” O.D.) to 1-1/4” O.D. slip trap. Trap
18 on the bottle filler side must be 1-1/2” O.D. (provided by
others).
13
10. Make final water supply connections.

11. These products are designed to operate on 20-105 PSI

supply line pressure. If inlet pressure is above 105 PSI, a
pressure regulator must be installed in the supply line.

Caution: Any damage caused by connecting these products

8 9 to a supply line with pressure lower than 20 PSI or higher
15 than 105 PSI IS NOT covered under warranty.
14 2

Figure 4 - Upper Panel Installation 12. Make electrical connections to the bottle filler and remote
chiller. The LCD Bottle counter should illuminate.

13. Verify proper dispensing from the bottle filler by placing a cup,
hand or any opaque object in front of sensor area and verify
water dispenses. Note: the first initial dispenses might have air
in the line which may cause a sputter. This will be eliminated
once all air is purged from the line. A steady stream of water
assures all air is removed. The sensor has a 20 second maxi
mum ON time. It may be necessary to step away from the
beam a few times to purge all air. Check for leaks.

14. Check stream height from bubbler. Stream height is factory set
for 35 PSI supply. If supply pressure varies greatly from this,
remove push button (Item 5 - Fig. 9) and adjust the screw
on the regulator (Item 4 - Fig. 9). To remove push button,
24 remove setscrew from bottom of sleeve (Item 6). Insert a small
Reset punch in screw hole and push up while grasping the push but
Switch ton and pull forward removing the push button. Clockwise
adjustment will raise stream height and counterclockwise
movement will lower stream height. For best adjustment
stream should hit basin approximately 6-1/2” from the bubbler.
Reassemble the push button by pushing in on button until the
3 19 push button catches in the sleeve. Reinstall the setscrew (Item
19 25
7) in the sleeve (Item 6).

15. Install the bottom cover plates on fountains (Fig. 4).

16. Tighten back panel screws (Item 9) (Fig. 4).

17. Optional: Mount optional panels. Mount bracket on wall per

rough-in instructions. Slide tongue of panel under edge of
already installed panel. Tighten screws.
