Dacor AFM36VSP Planning Manual

Document # PG11-002
• Observe all governing codes and ordinances during planning
and installation. Contact your local building department for
further information.
• This appliance must be installed in accordance with the
accompanying installation instructions.

Product Dimensions

◊ The depth from the front of the door (w/o door handles) to the back of
the refrigerator chassis is 26 7/8" (68.3 cm).
◊ The depth of the cabinet less the door is 24 1/8" (61.3 cm).
◊ The height from the top of the refrigerator to the floor with the leveling
legs in the down position is 70 1/8" (178.1 cm).
◊ The height from the top of the refrigerator to the floor with the leveling
legs in the fully extended position is 71 1/4" (181.0 cm) at the front of
the unit and 70 11/16" (179.6 cm) at the rear of the unit.
◊ The refrigerator width from edge to edge is 35 5/8" (90.5 cm).

Electrical Requirements

A 115 Volt, 60 Hz. AC only 15 or 20 Amp. fused, grounded electrical supply
is required. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only your
refrigerator be provided. Use an outlet that cannot be turned off by a switch.
Do not use an extension cord. The power cord is 60" (152.4 cm) long.

Location Requirements

◊ A grounded three prong non-GFCI electrical outlet must be provided
and should be in a location that allows the refrigerator to be
connected without an extension cord. See Electrical Requirements
for additional information.
◊ The plumbing for the water line can come through the floor flush to
or from the back wall. Install the water valve in a location that allows
it to be turned off without moving the refrigerator out in the event the
refrigerator or water line requires service.
◊ The location must allow the refrigerator to be moved out from the
wall without being disconnected in the event that service become
necessary.
◊ Do not install the refrigerator in a location where temperatures will fall
below freezing.
◊ The area to the left and the right of the appliance must permit both
doors to open to a minimum of 90°. Allow a minimum of
2 1/2" (6.4 cm) space between the side of the refrigerator doors and a
corner wall.

Water Supply Requirements

◊ Connect the ice maker to a cold water line with water pressure
between 35 and 120 psi. If you have any questions about your water
pressure, call your utility company.
◊ Use 1/4" (6 mm) copper line to connect the refrigerator to the house
cold fresh water supply.
◊ Install a shut off valve between the refrigerator and water supply. The
shut off valve should be a drilled saddle valve. See the diagram above
for recommended location.
◊ Do not use a piecing type or 3/16" (5 mm) saddle valve which will
reduce water flow and clog more easily.
◊ Allow a minimum of 24" (61.0 cm) diameter service loop of copper
tubing outside the wall or floor for easy connection to the water
supply.

Reverse Osmosis Water Supply

IMPORTANT: The pressure of the water supply coming out of a reverse
osmosis system going to the water inlet valve of the refrigerator needs to
be between 35 and 120 psi (241 and 827 kPa).
If a reverse osmosis water filtration system is connected to your cold water
supply, the water pressure to the reverse osmosis system needs to be a
minimum of 40 to 60 psi (276 to 414 kPa).
