IMPORTANT PRODUCT INFORMATION
Brasstech water dispensers are tested and warrantied only when connected to
Brasstech water heater 5-036.
Under normal operation, Brasstech’s line of ‘Hot’ and ‘Hot/Cold’ water
dispensers may drip for a period of up to 15 minutes after each use. This
condition originates from the unit’s integral hot water tank. It is caused by
the thermal expansion of water occurring naturally when cool water is heated
in a confined space (the tank). Brasstech dispensers were specifically
designed to allow steam or any amount of water expansion to escape through the
spout, thus preventing dangerous high pressure from building up inside the
tank. This is a safety feature; not to be confused with a defective product.
Lab tests have confirmed that during the heat-up cycle, water may leak from
the spout for up to 15 minutes after the valve is shut off. This duration
varies based on the hot water tank’s temperature setting and the amount of hot
water consumed. The approximate volume of water expansion during the 10-15
minute period is 3-5 ounces.
Although persistent leaking and/or dripping may be caused by a non-conforming
cartridge and/or improper assembly, the type of leakage described here (10-15
min., 3-5 oz) can be verified by unplugging the power to the water heater.
There should be no leak through the spout after the hot valve is shut off in
this manner.
Recommended Installation by a Professional Plumbing Contractor
Note: The use of petroleum base plumbers’ putty on our products will nullify
the warranty. We recommend the use of clear silicone sealing materials.
Recommended deck thru hole Ø 1.25″ to Ø1.38
INSTALLING FAUCET ON SINK
(See Fig 1)
- Slide the 3 hoses through the escutcheon, o-ring, and mounting surface hole.
- Hand tighten Mounting Kit on the underside of the mounting surface and use a Phillip-head screwdriver to secure it into place
ATTACHING WATER CONNECTIONS TO THE SUPPLY AND TANK
(See Fig 2)
- Connect the blue tube to the cold water supply utilizing the 9/16 thread fitting.
- Note: Do not trim the blue tube and use it with a 1/4″ compression fitting. The blue hose can only be trimmed if it is used with a quick-connect fitting that is supplied with the Newport Brass heater tank.
- Trim the grey hose as short as possible to reduce back pressure, then, connect it to the center outlet tube on the top of the tank utilizing the brass coupling.
- Trim and connect the red tube to the heater tank utilizing a quick-connect fitting with the filter (supplied with the heater tank). The debris screen filter protects the heater tank from blockages. Warranty will be void if quick-connect fitting with filter is not used.
TEST INSTALLED FAUCET
- Turn on the water supply. Rotate the hot handle and hold until the tank fills up, (the tank is full when water comes out of the spout). Rotate the hot handle to turn the water off.
- Check all connections for leaks. Make any final adjustments as required by first turning off the water supply to relieve the pressure.
- Plug in the water tank and wait between 10-15 minutes for the water to reach its target temperature.
