Water Supply

The water supply should be ready at the
point of installation. The water supply
pressure should be a minimum of 15 psig
with a static pressure not more than 80
psig. (A wall outlet directly behind the ice
machine will make installation easier.)

IMPORTANT:

1. All installations must be in accordance with local plumbing code requirements. Professional
installation is REQUIRED.
2. Make certain the hoses are not pinched or kinked or damaged during installation.
3. Check for leaks after connection.
Tools required:
Connecting the water line:
1. Turn off main water supply. Turn on the nearest faucet long enough to clear line of water.
2. Find a ½-in. to ¾-in. vertical cold-water pipe near the installation location. The distance should be
less than 6 feet. The water supply hose provided with the ice maker is about 6 feet long.
3. A shut-off valve must be installed to the main water supply. If the water pipe has a plain piece of
copper tubing, attach a ¼" O.D. compression union to the tubing and remove the nut.
4. Connect the nut of the water supply hose to the tap, and connect the other end with the water
inlet. Tighten firmly by hand, then one-half turn with wrench.
5. Turn on main water supply and tap. Check for water supply connection leaks. Tighten every
connection (including connection at the water inlet).
IMPORTANT: When you connect the water supply hose and the drain hose, pay
attention to the indications of "Water inlet" and "Drain outlet" on the machine.
Drain
You must connect the drain line before using the ice maker. Follow the steps outlined below.
Connecting the drain line:
NOTE: A drain pump system is used in this type of icemaker. If there is a drain line near the
ice maker, the best choice is to drain water to the drain line through the drain water
hose provided with ice maker.
1. Locate the floor drain near the ice maker. The distance should be less than 4.5 feet since the
length of the long drain water hose provided with the ice maker is about 4.85 feet.
2. Find the drain outlet on the back of ice maker. Connect the drain outlet to the water draining hose
and insert the other end of the hose into the drain line.
NOTE: Never allow the drain hose to hang or loop higher than the floor of the ice
storage bin.
3. All horizontal runs of drain lines must have a fall of ¼" per foot. An air gap will likely be required
between the ice maker drain tube and the drain/waste receptacle. A standpipe with a trap below it
would be acceptable for the drain/waste receptacle. A floor drain is also acceptable.
4. Pour 1 gallon of water into the ice storage bin to check for leaks in the drainage system. Tighten
any connections that leak.
IMPORTANT: Infrequent drainage will cause a high rate of melting in the ice storage bin.
