Congratulations
and thank you for choosing
the Blulogic Wedge.
Now you can enjoy your Blulogic Wedge, the pure drinking
water appliance that replaces all of the bottled water you could
ever want.
Your Blulogic Wedge is designed to purify and disinfect tap
water at the point-of-use by utilizing one of the most advanced
filtration processes available. Once the tap water is treated by a
multi-stage filter process, it enters the cooling tank and hot
water tank. The hot water tank holds water hot enough for
coffee or a cup of soup.
All of our Blulogic units include a free multi-stage micron
filtration system, an installation kit and this easy to read
manual. Your Blulogic Wedge is engineered to last
for years.
Should you have any questions about your Blulogic Wedge,
please refer to our website, www.blulogicusa.com or
call us at 888-852-7873
.
This manual provides instructions
for installing and maintaining
your Blulogic Wedge.
IMPORTANT:
Please do not store your Wedge where it can freeze, as
permanent damage can occur to the filtration and plumbing systems,
and will void the warranty.
Unpacking the Unit
Unwrap the plastic strapping and carefully lift the box over the Wedge. Then
remove the protective wrapping and place the unit in the installation area.
WARNING:
Plastic bags and wrapping can present a choking hazard for
small children. Please discard thoughtfully.
Before first use
Before using your Blulogic Wedge, we suggest reading this manual
completely to ensure proper operation.

installation notes
WARNING:
Risk of electric shock and damage to interior walls or
leak and/or flood if improperly installed. Use the following
guidelines to help you ensure quick, easy and proper installation
of your Wedge.
Step 1
|
Install the saddle valve
at cold water source
To connect the feed water, first shut
off the water line under your sink.
Then use the supplied self-piercing
saddle valve to connect to the cold
water supply line under the sink.
Attach the ¼ inch tubing to the
compression fitting on the side of the
valve. Clamp the saddle valve over the
copper or plastic feed line (cold water
only). Turn the handle on the valve
until the needle stem pierces through
the tube. Then retract the needle 1 to 2
turns to start the water flow.
Step 2
|
Connect and run the
water tubing
Run the 1/4” poly water tubing from
the water source to the Wedge
location. Typically, but not always
necessary, a small hole is cut in the
back of the cabinet and the wall and
the tubing is run through the wall or a
drop ceiling to the cooler location.
If this is not possible, take care that the
tubing is not exposed or draped or
creates a tripping hazard in any way.
Step 3
|
Install the optional
shut off ball valve
Included in your kit is an optional shut
off ball valve. This provides an easy
way to turn the water to the cooler
off without having to shut off the
water under the sink.
The valve should be attached
approximately 5 feet from the unit.
Simply cut off the last 5 feet of the
plastic feed line and attach the valve
to reconnect the lines.
installation instructions
Please follow all of the installation steps below. If you have any questions,
don’t hesitate to contact us at 844-BLULOgIC (844-374-6576).
Step 4
|
Hook up the
water supply
Once the tubing is placed securely,
connect one end to the saddle valve
and the other end to the water source
inlet on the back of the Wedge.
Step 4
|
Make sure the
compressors are off
On the back of the Wedge are two
switches that turn the heating and
cooling compressors on.
Be sure both switches are in the off or
“O” position.
Step 5
|
Turn on the water
source back on
The water will begin to flow through
the lines to the cooler.
installation instructions
Please follow all of the installation steps below. If you have any questions,
don’t hesitate to contact us at 844-BLULOgIC (844-374-6576).
Step 6
|
Plug in to electricity
Plug the Wedge into the closest wall
socket. Take care that the cord does
not present a tripping hazard.
Once plugged in, the tanks wil begin
to fill with water. during this time you
may hear water flowing inside the
Wedge. This is normal.
Step 7
|
Test water flow
Once the tanks are filled, ensure
proper function by placing a cup
under the dispenser and pressing the
cold water button. If functioning
normally, then press the hot water
safety lock, and then the hot water
button. Be sure that water flows
freely from each operation.
Step 8
|
Flush the tanks
and filters
For optimum purity, flushing the
coolers for approximately 15 minutes -
or roughly 3 gallons - is
recommended. Simply dispense
water into a large receptacle by
pressing the cold water button.
Step 9
|
Chilling and heating
the water tanks
After flushing, turn the hot and cold
compressors on by flipping the
switches to the on or “I” position.
The chilling and heating indicators on
the touch panel will light as chilling
and heating is in process. When the
indicators go off, water has reached
the proper temperature. The tanks
will rechill or reheat as needed to
ensure proper temperature.
Step 10

enjoy!
enjoy endless amounts of clean,
delicious and pure water!
cleaning and maintenance
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, unplug your Wedge and turn off the water supply under the
sink before cleaning. do not attempt to repair the Wedge, only authorized personnel should attempt repairs.
Cleaning the exterior
of your Wedge
Your Wedge is designed to be cleaned
with mild soap and water only.
The drip trays are easily removed and
dishwasher safe.
NOTE:
dO NOT use chemical or
abrasive cleaners because they
may cause the finish to scratch or
wear away.
draining the tanks
If transporting, storage or descaling is
required, the tanks must be drained.
First, unplug the unit then shut off the
water supply under the sink.
Holding a basin underneath to collect
spilling water, unscrew the drain plug
and collect the water as
it empties.
You may want to place a towel on the
floor to catch any stray drips.
When on vacation
If the unit will be going unused for
any length of time, you might
consider turning the hot and cold
power off as well as the water supply.
The switches are located on the top
back of the unit, and the optional shut
off ball valve.
NOTE:
If left unattended for more than
a couple of days, it is advised to flush
the system by dispensing and then
disposing of 2-3 glasses of water.
troubleshooting
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, unplug your Wedge and turn off the water supply under the
sink before removing panels. Only authorized personnel should attempt repairs.
Removing the side panel
To remove the side panel of your Wedge,
simply unfasten the screws holding the panel in place
and slide the cover off.
No Hot Water
If, upon testing, you find there is no hot water, it is possible
the water heater was turned on before the tank was
completely full.
To avoid burnout of the mechanism, the water heater is
equipped with a safety off switch. To reset the heater,
simply press the reset button on the back of the unit.
The reset button is the grey button on the back of the unit.
Ordering replacement filters
To maintain the highest quality water your Blulogic can
provide, your filter should be replaced every 6-8 months or
1200 gallons, whichever comes first. When initially
purchasing your Blulogic, grabbing an extra filter
replacement saves you time and money.
