•Water supply inlet is 1/2" female pipe thread (FPT).
•A water supply line
•Water supply pressure should be a minimum of 10 PSIG and a maximum of 113 PSIG. If the pressure exceeds 113 PSIG, the use of a pressure reducing valve is required.
•The minimum recommended drain line is 3/4" nominal hard pipe.
•Drain outlets are 3/4" FPT.
•Drain lines must have 1/4" fall per foot (2 cm per 1 m) on horizontal runs to get a good flow. A vented tee connection is also required for proper flow.
•Drain lines should not be piped directly to the sewer system. An air gap of a minimum of 2 vertical inches (5 cm) should be between the end of the drain pipes from the icemaker and the floor drain.
