The Oasis NNEBFEZ is a contactless bottle filler conversion kit that retrofits onto existing Elkay EZ8 and LZ8 water coolers without removing the cooler from the wall.
Before You Begin
- Tools: Drill/driver, small tubing cutter for plastic line, a tool to cut 1-1/4" drain pipe, 5/16" and 1/4" nut drivers, and T15 and T20 Torx drivers.
- Not included: 4 wall anchors suited to your wall surface.
- Plumbing and power: The kit reuses the cooler's existing water line, P-trap, and power outlet. Turn off the water and unplug the cooler before starting.
- Warranty and reference: Installing the kit could void the original cooler's warranty. See the installation manual for split-level installs and electronics setup.
Step-by-Step Installation Guide
- Prepare the cooler: Turn off the water, bleed the pressure through the bubbler, and unplug the unit. Remove the fountain wrapper (4 hex screws) and loosen or remove the P-trap.
- Remove the fountain nose: Take out the 4 Torx screws, disconnect only the nose assembly wires, and disconnect the bubbler water line inside the nose. Cover the two bare terminals with the supplied insulated terminals. Then disconnect both solenoid valve water lines and join them with the supplied 1/4" elbow, leaving the cooling tank outlet line free.
- Mount the frame: Set the retrofit frame on the cooler frame's top flange, centered, and anchor it to the wall with at least 4 anchors. Install the center bracket, side brackets, drip tray support bracket, and filter guard bracket with the supplied screws.
- Connect the drain and wrapper: Use the supplied drain elbows and drainpipes to connect the drip tray to the P-trap, cutting the pipe to length. Rest the alcove wrapper on the drip tray with its walls outside the frame, fasten it, and check the alignment.
- Connect the water line and power: Fit the 1/4" union on the cooling tank outlet line and connect the supplied insulated 1/4" line to the bottle filler solenoid. Secure the power cord's IEC connection, clip the cord about 36" from the plug with the P-clip, attach the ring terminal to the ground screw, and plug it in.
- Test and finish: Turn on the water and check for leaks, and make sure nothing blocks the fan blade. Plug in the Elkay power cord and test by placing a bottle in the alcove. Then install the top panel, filter access panel, and Elkay cooler wrapper.
