Plumbing Requirements

All models require connection to cold, potable water.
A hand actuated valve within site of the machine
is required. There is a single 3/8" FPT inlet water
connection on the back of the cabinet.
Water Filters
Install a new cartridge if the filters were used with a
prior machine.
Drains
All models require drain tubing to be attached to them.
There is a single ¾" FPT drain fitting in the back of the
cabinet.
Install new tubing when replacing a prior ice machine,
as the tubing will have been sized for the old model
and might not be correct for this one.

1. Connect water supply to water inlet fittings.
2. Connect drain tubing to drain fitting.
3. Route the drain tubing to building drain. Follow
local codes for air gap.
4. Use rigid drain tubes and route them separately –
do not Tee into the bin's drain.
Vent the reservoir drain. A vertical vent at the back of
the drain, extended about 8 – 10" will allow the gravity
drain to empty and also keep any surges during
draining from discharging water.
Horizontal runs of drain tubing need a ¼" per fall per
foot of run for proper draining.
Follow all applicable codes.
