- Position the Elkay ER101Y remote chiller in a permanent indoor location; do not install outdoors or in humid environments.
- Allow proper ventilation: maintain at least 6" clearance at the front, 1" at each side, and 3" at the rear above the unit. If recessed, use wall grille EG‑1 or EG‑2 and ensure 6" clearance beyond grille front.
- Level the unit on a firm foundation; handle carefully to avoid damage to exterior panels.
- Shut off water supply before installation; flush all supply lines to remove debris.
