Installation
Overall view of installation
- Ensure the SeltzaHub is put into the proposed installation location 24hours before starting up. This ensures there will be no issues with refrigerant system.
- Turn off cold water from existing valve under the sink.
- Disconnect existing cold water lines from existing valve.
- Install T-Stop Valve in existing cold water line.
- Connect cold water faucet hose to the T-Stop valve.
- Sample image under the sink
Check for leaks. Ensure T-Stop
Valve is turned off. Turn on Main Cold Water supply and check for any leaks.
(Show picture of T-Stop valve off and Main water on)
How To Use Quick Connect Fittings
-
Cut the tube square and push into the tube stop. For metal tube, remove burrs and chamfer tube end to prevent O-ring seal from being damaged.
-
Fitting grips before it seals. Ensure tube is pushed into the tube stop.
-
Tube is secured in position
-
DISCONNECTION PROCEDURE Push collet against body and slide tube out fitting.
-
Disassemble the blue safety clip and take out the plug. (if applicable).
-
Connect the 1/4” diameter water pipe to the T-stop valve or the filter system and the SeltzaHub water inlet.
-
Connect the chilled sparkling, chilled still, and ambient still 5/16” tubing from SeltzaHub to SeltzaTap.
For third party faucets modify connections to work with the SeltzaHub -
Check for water leaks in the system.
a) Ensure all the valves on the side of the machine are off.b) Turn on Main water valve. Check for leaks
c) Turn on T-Stop valve Check for leaks
d) Turn on Each valve on the side of SeltzaHub and wait for 5 seconds. Check each valve for leaks.
e) Leave valves open -
Take the 5/16” gas tubing, cut as needed and assemble 5/16” manual valve.
Assemble the tubing to the Pressure reducer. -
Connect 5/16” tube in the back of the SeltzaHub to CO2 inlet.
-
Assembly the pressure reducer to the CO2 cylinder (the manual valve is in ON position.)Any CO2 bottles should always e upright during use, storage and transit. If the bottle has been left horizontal, place upright and let it stand for 60+ minutes to allow content to settle before initialising.
-
Turn the pressure to 75 ± 5psi. Listen for leaks.
-
Turn on the power and you can hear the machine start to work (you can hear the pump feed the water into the system)Flush each system (sparkling, chilled still, and ambient still) by turning the valve on at the faucet for 2 minutes (Show picture)Let sit for one hour for system to cool and carbonate.

SeltzaHub Maintenance
Replacing the temperature sensor.
The temperature sensor has a limited life span.
A new one is included inside the top of the machine.
- Turn off SeltzaHub.
- Remove 2 screws at the back and top of the seltzaHub.
- Remove plastic cover.
- Remove elastic band around temperature sensor.
- Pull temperature out of well.
- Follow the wire back and remove from connect marked CN 16 on board.
- Install in reverse.
Flow Rate Adjustment
It is possible to adjust the flow rate up or down inside the SeltzaHub. This may increase the instance of E4 error codes and is not detrimental to the machine.
- Turn off SeltzaHub
- Remove 2 screws in the back top of the SeltzaHub
- Remove the top cover
- Locate the flow regulator. Mark the current screw location with a marker in case you want to go back to the factory setting of 15 mL/second.
- Turn flow regulator screw counter clockwise for increased flow. Turn clockwise for decreased flow.
Potential faults and actions to be taken
No | Fault | Actions to be taken | Comments |
---|
1
| When using the Soda water, gas comes out of the Seltza Tap.|
Recommended to wait a little, then problem will be solve by itself.|
This happens when taking to much soda water at one time.
2| Machine is not working properly| Recommended to shutdown
the machine and re-operate it after 30 seconds.|
3| SeltzaHub display error| E1| NTC connection is open.|
Replace temperature sensor as per maintenance instructions
E2| NTC is short-circuited.| Replace temperature sensor as per maintenance
instructions
E3| Temperature is too low.| Shut down the machine, restart after 30 seconds.
E4| Pump Protection as the pump is working to long.| Shut down the machine,
restart after 30 seconds.
E5| Compressor protection, the compressor works too long time| 1.
Check for proper ventilation under the counter.
2. Check that fan is operational and that is not blocked.
3. Check the temperature shown on the front of the display. If it shows 35
or more than the temperature sensor needs replacement.
See maintenance requirements below.
4. Room temperature may be to high.
4| Soda not working or flat| CO2 bottle is empty.|
Replace CO2 bottle.
Power is off.| Turn on the power switch.
Not enough bar pressure.| Slightly increase CO2 bar pressure.
5| Noise| If there are any unusual NOISE, shutdown the SeltzaHub,
close the water inlet and gas inlets.| Do not try to fix the machine. Shutdown
the machine and contact Seltza customer support.
