Installation Instructions

DRAIN CONNECTIONS

Follow these guidelines when installing drain lines to prevent drain water from flowing
back into the ice machine and storage bin:
• Drain lines must have a 1.5 inch drop per 5 feet of run (2.5 cm per meter), and must not
create traps.
• The floor drain must be large enough to accommodate drainage from all drains.
• Run separate bin and ice machine drain lines. Insulate them to prevent condensation.
• Vent the bin and ice machine drain to the atmosphere.
• Bin drain termination must have an air gap.

AUXILIARY BASE DRAIN INSTALLATION

An auxiliary drain is located in the ice machine base to remove moisture in high humidity
areas.
1. View the back of the ice machine base on the compressor side and locate and remove
the cap plug.
2. Route tubing to an open site drain:
• Use 1/2 inch CPVC tubing.
• Apply a bead of silicone around the exterior of the ice machine tubing and insert
into ice machine base. The silicone will secure the tubing and provide a watertight
seal.
3. Provide support for tubing.
