Puretec Customer Service

Thank you for purchasing a Puretec Freestanding Water Chiller System. Your system is a proven performer manufactured from only quality materials and components and will give years of spring-like water, if maintained properly.

The Puretec filter supplied with the Freestanding Water Chiller System needs regular cartridge replacement to maintain optimum performance. This is a simple procedure when following instructions. For cartridge replacements contact your nearest Puretec stockist.

Introduction

The Puretec Freestanding Water Chiller System is designed to run economically for many years, dependent on the initial installation and periodical maintenance.
Flush systems for 10 minutes after any period of non-use more than 2 days.
The Freestanding Water Chiller System is designed to operate with mains water.

Installation Note: A water filter system/tap, like any product, has a limited life and may eventually fail. Also sometimes failure happens early due to unforeseen circumstances. To avoid possible property damage, this product should be regularly examined for leakage and/or deterioration and replaced when necessary. A drain pan, plumbed to an appropriate drain or outfitted with a leak detector, should be used in those applications where any leakage could cause property damage, and/or the water supply should be turned off if no one is home/present.

ALL INSTALLATION AND SERVICE WORK SHOULD BE COMPLETED BY QUALIFIED TRADESPEOPLE. FAULTY OPERATION DUE TO UNQUALIFIED PERSONS WILL RESULT IN VOIDED WARRANTY COVERAGE.

Cartridge Replacement

To maintain the high quality of the purified water the cartridges need changing every 6 – 12 months, dependent on water quality and usage. You can obtain replacement cartridges from your local Puretec dealer. To maintain performance standards and warranty, use only genuine Puretec replacements.

Installation Requirements

The following is a guide but the installer is responsible to comply with any local regulations that may be applicable to this type of installation.

  1. Install near a convenient place to connect to a mains pressure water supply of drinking water quality and 220 – 240V/50Hz electrical supply.
  2. Avoid areas exposed to excessive heat, humidity, rain, saltwater or snow or direct contact with water spray or splashing.
  3. Avoid positions of direct sunlight or solar heat.
  4. Install only on flat, level and well supported surfaces.
  5. Avoid tilting the machine during installation. If the machine has been tilted excessively for more than a few minutes during or before installation, leave to stand for approximately one hour before switching on.
  6. Allow an air gap of at 100 mm each side and at the front of the machine.
Installation
  1. Once positioned and levelled remove the front panel

  2. Assemble the carafe filler by inserting the gooseneck outlet into the carafe filler base that comes installed on the sink. Ensure the gooseneck outlet is pushed in hard until properly sealed.

  3. An access port for the drain is provided at the rear of the cabinet.

  4. Slide the rubber coupling onto the end of the drain port, and secure the coupling to the drain port with the hose clamp for a tight waterproof seal. Fit 40 mm PVC piping from the drain to the rubber coupling and secure with the hose clamp.
    Installation

  5. Connect the inlet water supply to the ¼” tube fitting at the rear of the cabinet and ensure there is an easily accessible shutoff valve on the water supply line. Fit a pressure reducing valve to regulate the water pressure if required – max 520 kPa.

  6. Switch on the water and check all tubing and fittings for water leaks.

  7. Open the quarter turn spindle on the carafe filler until water dispenses and then run the water for 1 minute to clear air pockets and flush the filter.

  8. All Puretec freestanding chillers are supplied with a Puretec filter to ensure water of the highest quality. I models have the filter pre-installed internally. E models are supplied with the filter seprately and will need to be installed (see External Filter Installation on page 9).

  9. When new it may take up to 1 minute to fill the system prior to dispensing water.

  10. Connect the power cord to a standard 240V powerpoint and switch on the electrical supply.

  11. Refit the front panel.

  12. Allow 1 hour for the water to cool before the water reaches its operational temperature.

  13. To protect the compressor, allow the unit to stand for at least 1 hour after moving before switching it back on.

Operation & Maintenance

  • Frequently clean the fountain using warm soapy water. Avoid all abrasive and corrosive cleaning materials.
  • Do not pour any waste cleaning water down the drain to avoid blocking the drain trap.
  • If the chiller is not used (e.g. more than 3 days) the power can be switched off to conserve energy.
  • We recommend that the fountain is cleaned after any period of disuse.
  • It will be necessary to change the filter after an extended period of disuse (e.g. more than 2 weeks).
  • Keep the area surrounding the fountain clean and dry. In the event of any leakages,switch off the water and power and call Puretec.

Cartridge Change out

Replacement cartridge code for D Series systems: Z1-R

  1. Turn off the water supply at an external shut off valve.
  2. Remove all packaging from the new cartridge, including any wraps or caps (if applicable).
  3. Rotate the old cartridge counter-clockwise 1/4 turn, pull it out and dispose of it.
  4. Insert the new cartridge into the filter head and rotate clockwise 1/4 turn.
  5. Turn on the water supply and check for leaks.
  6. If leaks occur, repeat step 2 & 3.
  7. If leaks persist discontinue use and call Puretec.
  8. Open the quarter turn spindle on the carafe filler until water dispenses and then run the water for 1 minute to clear air pockets and flush the filter.

Use Guidelines

  • Use for mains water supply.
  • Minimum operating pressure 200 kPa.
  • Maximum operating pressure 520 kPa.
  • Do not allow exposure to temperatures below 0 °C, protect from freezing.
  • Maximum operating temperature 38 °C.
  • Nominal flow rate 5.5 Lpm.
  • System must be installed according to local plumbing codes on the cold water line only.
  • This system requires regular replacement of the filter cartridge to maintain proper operation. Varying chlorine, sediment, or organic substance levels may affect
  • replacement frequency.
  • Be sure to change the filter cartridge every 6 – 12 months or whenever you detect a change in taste, odour, or decrease in flow.

Caution: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before the chiller.

External Filter Installation

  1. Select suitable location that is close to the Freestanding Water Chiller System. Remember to allow access room for changing filters and a suitable place where water spillage will not cause damage. Location should not be in direct sunlight.
  2. Isolate water supply. Uninstall the connections on the cold water line and connect the tubing, a Smart Tee™ (sold separately) is recommended. Reinstall the previous connection to the tee valve.
  3. Connect a pressure limiting MultiValve (sold separately) to the tee valve with a length of White Tubing.
  4. Install filter cartridge by positioning it in the desired location, marking the position of fixing hole and fixing with bracket screw. The Z1 filter can be mounted horizontally or vertically. Allow room for the connecting tubes. Ensure flow arrow on the head is in direction of the water flow.
  5. Fit tubing into connectors. Allow slack in the tubing.
  6. Restore the water supply and check for leaks.
  7. When new it may take up to 1 minute to fill the system prior to dispensing water. Run the system for at least 5 minutes to remove carbon fines. Water may appear milky, but this is normal and is only tiny air bubbles that will clear after a short period.
