Use and Care Manual

Getting Started
Getting Started 1-3
Before we proceed with your installation, we must rst identify how and where to install
your new DRINKPOD 2000. This will be the most complicated part of the installation
process. Don’t be intimidated! We’ve worked hard to write the best set of instructions you’ll
ever read. Be prepared to feel like a DIY pro when you’re nished!
Conguration & Location
First, let’s decide where you want to install your DRINKPOD 2000. In almost all cases, this
easily decided by answering two simple questions.
1. What water sources are available? If you’re not sure what you have, or how to check,
see Appendix A - Water Sources” on page App-1 for pictures and more information.
A.
Water Accessory Line (typically refrigerator ice maker line/source)
B.
Sink Faucet Cold Water Line (i.e. underneath your kitchen sink)
2. Do you want to connect any other appliances? Your DRINKPOD 2000 is capable of
providing puried water to up to two kitchen appliances* (i.e. refrigerator, ice maker, or
coee maker/espresso maker/barista machine with an in-line water connection)like the
Drinkpod JAVAPod 1.
*The ability to provide purified water to external appliances is dependent on having
sufficient water pressure.
3. Following this are diagrams of the most common types of installations our customers
like to use. Quickly review them to identify which conguration best suits you. We
recommend connecting to a Water Accessory Line if both types of water sources are
available.
