IMPORTANT PRODUCT INFORMATION
Brasstech water dispensers are tested and warrantied only when connected to Brasstech water heater 5-036.
Under normal operation, Brasstech’s line of ‘Hot’ and ‘Hot/Cold’ water dispensers may drip for a period of
up to 15 minutes after each use. This condition originates from the unit’s integral hot water tank. It is caused
by the
thermal expansion of water occurring naturally when cool water is heated in a confined space (the
tank). Brasstech dispensers were specifically designed to allow steam or any amount of water expansion to
escape through the spout, thus preventing dangerous high pressure from building up inside the tank. This is a
safety feature; not to be confused with a defective product.
Lab tests have confirmed that during the heat up cycle, water may leak from the spout for up to 15 minutes
after the valve is shut off. This duration varies based on the hot water tank’s temperature setting and amount
of hot water consumed. Approximate volume of water expansion during the 10-15 minute period is 3-5
ounces.
Although persistent leaking and/or dripping may be caused by a non-conforming cartridge and/or improper
assembly, the type of leakage described here (10-15 min., 3-5 oz) can be verified by unplugging the power to
the water heater. There should be no leak through the spout after the hot valve is shut off in this manner.
