What You Should Know Before You Begin

For your satisfaction and safety, read all instructions, cautions, and warnings before installing or using this instant hot water dispenser.

This unit is not intended for commercial use.
Ensure all electrical wiring and connections conform to local codes.
A standard 115-volt grounded electrical outlet is required under the sink for the dispenser's electrical power.
The wall outlet powering your dispenser must have power supplied to it continuously and must be fused. It should not be controlled by the same wall switch that operates the disposer, unless you have an InSinkErator® SinkTop Switch™.
It is recommended that a dedicated control valve be installed on the cold water line supplying water to this system.
If you suspect elevated levels of chlorine in your water, or your water has a rusty appearance before installation, use our water filtration system.
This product contains stainless steel. The manufacturer cannot guarantee against rusty water due to factors beyond control. However, sudden rusty water discharge may indicate the need for service or replacement.
The use of a water filter should NOT result in water pressure dropping below 30 psi (207kPa). If it does, this will prevent your unit from operating properly.
Moving parts inside the tank causing a rattling noise is normal.

2. Installing the Faucet (Models 1100/2200/2215)

Unpack dispenser components. On a firm, flat surface, carefully straighten the copper tubing. NOTICE: Property Damage: Do not pinch or break copper tubing. Do not distort the last 1 inch of tubing.
Ensure the black O-ring is properly seated in the base of the dispenser head (the groove on the underside). Use the rubber O-ring for a proper seal.
Feed tubes down through the hole in the sink or countertop until the base rests on the surface. To ease feeding, insert the blue tube with the quick-connect attachment first, then the remaining tubes.
From under the sink, place the semi-circular mounting plate onto the threaded stud. Place the hex nut onto the stud. Ensure the faucet head is at the desired angle. Insert a screwdriver into the hole on the side of the hex tool (creating a "T") and use the tool to tighten the nut and secure the faucet. The mounting plate should encircle all descending tubes and extend beyond the sink hole when tight. An assistant may be needed to hold the dispenser head in place.

2. Installing the Faucet (Model 3300)

Unpack dispenser components. The recommended installation is with the dispenser handle on the right. The unique design allows the handle to be functional on either side; determine preferred placement before installing. NOTICE: Property Damage: Do not pinch or break tubing. Do not distort the last 1 inch of tubing.
Insert the rubber O-ring into the groove on the brass seat. Place the brass seat, O-ring side down, over the hole in the sink or countertop. Wetting the O-ring with water helps hold it in place.
Holding the brass seat in place, feed tubes down through the hole until the base touches the brass seat. To ease feeding, insert the blue tube with the quick-connect attachment first, then the remaining tubes. Rotate the brass seat until the two retaining studs fit into the holes on the faucet base and the base sits firmly on the brass seat.
From under the sink, place the semi-circular mounting plate onto the threaded stud. Place the hex nut onto the stud. Ensure the dispenser handle is on the preferred side and the faucet head is at the desired angle. Insert a screwdriver into the hole on the side of the hex tool (creating a "T") and use the tool to tighten the nut and secure the faucet. The mounting plate should encircle all descending tubes and extend beyond the sink hole when tight.

3. Mounting the Tank

The tank must be mounted level to ensure proper operation.

Select a spot under the sink to mount the tank vertically, within reach of plumbing and electrical connections. The tank should be within 16" or less of faucet water lines and within 30" or less of a standard grounded outlet. NOTICE: Property Damage: Tank must be located within 16" of faucet and within 30" or less of a standard grounded outlet. DO NOT extend plumbing or electrical lines. While holding the tank in place, use a pencil to mark locations for 2 hanging screws.
Leave 1/4" for hanging the tank. Screws provided are for wood studs or cabinets only; use wall anchors (not supplied) for drywall. Pre-drill 1/8" pilot holes at marks. Mount the tank vertically in an area allowing clearance on the underside for drainage. DO NOT overtighten screws. Turn screws into pre-drilled holes, leaving 1/4" exposed. Hang the tank on the screws. Tighten the screws with only a 1/2 turn clockwise.

4. Connecting Faucet to Tank

Without depressing the gray button, place the snap-connect fitting at the end of the blue tube onto the left fitting on the tank, pushing until it clicks into place.
Slip the flexible white 7/16" tube over the barbed steel fitting and slide down approximately 1/2".
Slip the clear 5/16" tube over the smooth plastic fitting and slide down approximately 1/2".
Check for pinched or crimped tubes. Hose clamps are not needed for any of the connections. NOTICE: Property Damage: Pinched or blocked water lines may cause damage to the dispenser tank. Check to make sure tubes are connected properly and are pushed down as far as possible.

5. Installing Filtration System

Screws provided are for wood studs or cabinets only; use wall anchors (not supplied) for drywall. Separate cartridge from filter head. Mark hole locations for filter head and bracket in a spot that allows for filter replacement. Drill 1/8" starter holes and attach bracket to wall with wood screws, turning until snug. CAUTION: Personal Injury: Do not locate filter above an outlet or other electrical device. Install head and bracket so that connections require no stretching, kinking or pinching of tubing.
Insert cartridge into filter head. Top surface of cartridge will become flush with the bottom of filter head when fully engaged.

6. Final Water Connection

Install a T-fitting (not included) onto the cold water supply line. Install a dedicated water control valve with a 1/4" compression fitting. At the end of the white 1/4" tube from the filter or quick-connector, slide the supplied brass nut and ferrule over the tube and then push in the brass tube insert. Insert the white 1/4" tube into the 1/4" compression fitting and tighten. NOTICE: Property Damage: Join remaining tube to cold water supply only.
Turn on water supply. Open hot water faucet to expel trapped air. NOTICE: Property Damage: Tube runs need to form to the cabinet's contours to allow storage space with no sharp bends. Tubes need clean, perpendicular, burr-free cuts to ensure a true fit.
Determine length of tubing required, then cut to length making sure the cut is perpendicular and burr-free. Insert a white 1/4" tube into the inlet side of the filter head until it stops. Press in again to ensure a secure fit. Insert the other white 1/4" tube into the outlet side of the filter head until it stops. Press in again to ensure a secure fit. Insert the copper tubes(s) from the dispenser into the "Y" quick-connector using the plug for hot-only models. Connect the white 1/4" tube from the right outlet on the filter head into the quick-connect fitting until it stops. Press in again to ensure a secure fit. To remove tube(s) or plug from quick-connector, depress the release ring and gently pull away. NOTICE: Property Damage: Do not extend the lines farther than the 16" provided. Ensure tube(s) and "Y" connector are securely fit.
Connect remaining white 1/4" tube to incoming water supply line. (See Step 6.)

It is normal for approximately 2 oz. of water to discharge when the filter is removed.

NOTICE: Property Damage: A standard grounded outlet within 30" of the dispenser is required under the sink. Do not use an extension cord set with the dispenser.

Check all connections to ensure they are tight and that there are no leaks. Plug in instant hot water tank. Water will be cold at first. Allow 12-15 minutes for water to reach target temperature. Gurgling or hissing is normal during the initial heating cycle.

Scalding Hazard: The faucet dispenses near-boiling (212°F) water which can instantly cause scalds or burns. Use care when operating this appliance.

For the F-1000S and F-1000, flush 2.25 gallons through filter before use (approx. 3 minutes). For the F-2000S and F-2000, flush 3 gallons through filter before use (approx. 4 minutes).

PROBLEM	POSSIBLE CAUSE	WHAT TO DO
Water and steam spits forcefully from spout without turning on the dispenser faucet.	Unit is boiling. May be normal during initial setup.	Activate faucet lever to release some water from the tank. Adjust water temperature using dial on tank front. (Remember that at higher altitudes, water boils at lower temperatures.)
Water is not hot.	Unit is unplugged. The electric outlet is inoperative.	Make sure the unit is connected to a properly grounded electric outlet. Make sure the circuit breaker or fuses are functioning properly. Check that the outlet is not switched off.
Water is too hot or not hot enough.	Thermostat is not adjusted to your needs.	Adjust the thermostat slowly, then activate faucet lever for 20 seconds to bring in fresh water to be heated at the new setting. Allow 5-7 minutes for water to reach new temperature.
Water comes out the vent instead of spout.	Outlet tube is blocked.	Check that outlet tube is not kinked, twisted or pinched. Unscrew spout end piece and clean out any debris.
Water is dripping from the spout/vent intermittently.	The expansion chamber isn't draining properly due to low water pressure.	Unplug the unit. If the dripping doesn't stop after a few minutes, check the supply valve to ensure that is fully open and there are no obstructions in the water line reducing the pressure below 30 psi (i.e., a poorly mounted saddle valve, a clogged water filter, or a partially opened shut-off valve).
Water is dripping from the spout/vent constantly.	Debris in the water line may be in the faucet valve seat causing a slow water leak.	Unscrew spout end piece and clean out any debris. Activate faucet lever 7-10 times to flush faucet & lines.
Divided stream.	Debris in the end piece.	Unscrew spout end piece and clean out any debris.
Water discoloration/rusty appearance.	Corrosion of unit.	Unplug and drain unit as described in the Seasonal Storage/Drainage Section on page 15 of this manual. If the water discoloration remains after draining and refilling unit, discontinue use and contact an authorized InSinkErator service agent.
