Faucet Installation
The Aqua-Cleer
®
/Good Water Machine
drinking water
faucet was designed by Culligan to compliment the RO drink-
ing water system. Properly installed, it will help to maximize
your customers product satisfaction. To simplify its access
and installation, we suggest you install the faucet on the rear
lip of the sink. It should be evenly positioned with the sink
faucet and spray attachment. Should the spray faucet hole
not be available for the installation, the sink must be drilled.
Sink Drilling Instructions
Stainless Steel Sink
Select the proper faucet location.
• Center punch hole to provide a starting point for your
drill.
Drill a 1/2-inch hole to accept the shank of a 1-1/4-inch
Greenlee Hole Punch.
• Insert the punch. Cut the hole by tightening the drive
screw.
• Remove any roughness with a file and clean up metal
chips.
Porcelain Enamel Sink
Follow these basic guidelines when drilling a porcelain sink:
Penetrate the porcelain to the base material.
Protect the surrounding porcelain material
Use the appropriate tool to drill the base material.
One proven tool is the Relton porcelain cutter kit, PN
00-5916-25, when used with a slow speed drill (300-400 rpm).
Drill a pilot hole through the porcelain and base material
with the carbide tip drill.
Build a putty dam around the drill area. Add enough
water to lubricate cutters and reduce cutting noise.
Insert the porcelain cutter into the drill.
Place the drill tip in the pilot hole. Check for free move-
ment.
Apply light pressure to the cutter tool and start the drill
motor at low speed (300-400 rpm). When the initial cut
has been made in the porcelain, speed may be increased.
After a complete ring has been cut through the porcelain,
change over to the metal cutter.
CAUTION: Avoid high drill speed during penetra-
tion of porcelain. A single speed drill can be used at
a slow speed by switching it on and off quickly.
Avoid contacting the outer rim of cut porcelain when
drilling.
Use a slow speed and light pressure to cut away the
porcelain.
Stop when you reach the metal under the porcelain.
Remove the cutter and clean the porcelain chips from
the surface. Continue cutting through the metal.
NOTICE: Ceramic tile counters should be treated like
porcelain when penetrating the surface, then treated as
metal to complete the hole with carbide drills. Formica
countertops can be drilled with a high-speed wood drill.
Preassembly
For in-shop preassembly (Refer to Fig. 9), complete Prepa-
ration Steps 1-5 and Installation Assembly 6-12.
Preparation
1. Install the toggle bolts loosely onto the faucet base.
Adjust to approximate thickness of the sink.
2. Make sure the brass J tube inside the top of the inner
body is centered over the drain hole. Press firmly to
seat. Push the air gap seal over the air gap port on the
inner body.
3. Determine whether the installation is right or left handed.
