Installation
- Ensure the wall is structurally sound to bear the load of the Elkay EMASM surface‑mount bottle filler; install a wall support carrier if required.
- Confirm ambient operating temperature is between 50°F–100°F (10℃–38℃); indoor use only.
- Shut off the building water supply and attach a service stop valve with 3/8" compression outlet; purge line and check for leaks.
- Remove the top cover (two screws) and bottom cover (two screws) using a 5/32" hex wrench; remove the back panel.
- Fasten the back panel to the wall through five 7/16" obround mounting holes using fasteners appropriate for wall type; align with rough‑in dimensions.
- Route the insulated waterline inside the wrapper before hanging the unit; reposition if necessary.
- Hang the bottle filler onto the back panel, aligning tabs at the top; secure by reinstalling the top cover and fastening with two screws.
- Replace the bottom cover and fasten with two screws; ensure proper fit over water and drain lines.
- Connect the 3/8" O.D. copper waterline from the in‑line strainer to the service stop valve.
- Connect the 1‑1/4" O.D. drain tray outlet to the in‑wall drain line using a slip joint union or compression clamp (not supplied).
- Turn on water supply, inspect for leaks, and correct any leaks before use.
- For detailed steps, refer to the Elkay EMASM installation manual or contact a licensed plumber.
Maintenance
- Inspect water connections regularly for leaks; tighten or reseal as needed.
- Clean exterior surfaces with mild soap and water; avoid abrasive cleaners that may damage finish.
- Check bubbler or actuator button for proper operation; adjust regulator screw if stream height varies.
- Clean aerator and nozzle periodically to remove mineral deposits; replace regulator or aerator kit if flow is restricted.
- Disconnect water supply before servicing internal components to avoid hazards.
- For service or repairs, consult the manual or a certified service representative.
