INSTALLER PLEASE NOTE: FASTENED IN MOUNTING BOX.
This water cooler has been designed and built to provide water to the user which has
not been altered by materials in the cooler waterways.
The grounding of electrical equipment such as telephone, computers, etc., to water
lines is a common procedure. This grounding may be in the building but may also
occur away from the building. This grounding can cause electrical feedback into a
water cooler creating an electrolysis which creates a metallic taste or causes an
increase in the metal content of the water. This condition is avoidable by installing the
cooler using the proper materials as shown below.
NOTICE
This water cooler must be connected to the water supply using a dielectric coupling.
The cooler is furnished with a non-metallic strainer which meets this requirement.
The drain trap which is provided by the installer should also be plastic to completely
isolate the cooler from the building plumbing system.
