U-Line 2175R, 2275DWRWS, 2175WCOL Drain Connection, Gravity Drain, FACTORY-INSTALLED Drain Pump

Plumbing - CLR2160 and CLRCO2175

CAUTION

Plumbing installation must observe all state and local codes. All water and drain connections MUST BE made by a licensed/qualified plumbing contractor. Failure to follow recommendations and instructions may result in damage and/or harm.

DRAIN CONNECTION

IMPORTANT

Drain can NOT be located directly below unit. Unit has a solid base that will not allow unit to drain below itself.

The unit can be installed using a gravity drain, a factory-installed drain pump (U-Line P60) or a locally installed drain pump. Drain lines must have a 5/8" inside diameter. The floor drain must be large enough to accommodate drainage from all attached drains.

Follow these guidelines when installing drain lines to prevent water from flowing back into the ice maker storage bin and/or potentially flowing onto the floor, causing water damage:

GRAVITY DRAIN

A Gravity Drain may be used if:

•Drain line has at least a 1" drop per 48" of run (1/4" per foot).

•Drain line does not create traps or created traps are vented (Figure 62).

Figure 62

See Figure 63 for a typical gravity drain installation.

Figure 63

If using a gravity drain:

1.Attach the 5/8" ID drain connection on the back of the unit to a 5/8" OD rigid tube, using a worm clamp.

2.Attach the other end of the rigid tube to your 5/8" ID drain line with a worm clamp.

3.Insulate the drain line, if necessary, to prevent condensation.

FACTORY-INSTALLED DRAIN PUMP

If your drain line will run up to a stand pipe, disposal assembly or spigot assembly or does not otherwise meet the requirements for a gravity drain, you may have ordered the CLR2160 with a U-Line P60 drain pump. See Figure 64, Figure 65 and Figure 66 for typical installations requiring a drain pump. If you need to install a P60 drain pump into your unit, see Locally-Installed Drain Pump.
