FOR THE PLUMBER

The recommended water supply line is a 3/8-inch
O.D. copper tubing with a minimum operating
pressure of 20 PSIG and a maximum of 80 PSIG.
Connect to cold water supply line with standard
plumbing fittings, with shut off valve installed in an
accessible place between the water supply and
the cuber. In some cases a plumber will be
required.
Water Limitations:
An ice machine is a food manufacturing plant, it
takes in a raw material, water, and turns it into a
food product, ice. The purity of the water is very
important in obtaining pure ice and in maximizing
product life. Even though there isn't one filter that
will cure all water problems, a good filter combined
with a polyphosphate feeder gives about the best
overall performance.
