CONNECTING THE DRAIN
Gravity Drain System
Connect the ice maker drain so that it is in
accordance with all state and local codes and
ordinances. If the ice maker is provided with a
gravity drain system, use the following guide-
lines when installing the drain lines. This will
prevent water from flowing back into the ice
maker storage bin and onto the floor, causing
water damage.
Drain lines must have a minimum of 5/8
(15.88 mm) inside diameter.
Drain lines must have a 1 drop per 48 (2.54 cm
drop per 122 cm) of run, or 1/4 drop per 12
(6.35 mm per 30.48 cm) and not have any
low points where water can settle.
The floor drains must be large enough to
accommodate drainage from all drains.
The ideal installation has a standpipe with a
1-1/2 (3.81 cm) to 2 (5.08 cm) PVC drain
reducer installed directly below the outlet of
the drain tube, as shown. You must maintain
a 1 (2.54 cm) air gap between the drain
hose and the standpipe.
It may be desirable to insulate the drain line
up to the drain inlet.
1. Drain Hose
2. 1 (2.54 cm) Air Gap
3. PVC Drain Reducer
4. Center of drain should be 23 (58.4 cm) from
front of door, with or without the 3/4 (1.91 cm)
panel on the door.
