Water System
The water system provides:
• Fresh water for ice production

solution is circulated to clean the system of minerals
and contaminates.
The hardness of the water supplied to the icemaker
will affect the quality of the ice that is produced. It

A water softener, or poly-phosphate feeder, will not
cure all of the problems associated with hard water,
but they can be used to reduce scale buildup in the
icemaker.
