Drain Pump Installation

(on some models)

NOTE: Connect drain pump to your drain in accordance with all state and local codes and ordinances. It may be desirable to insulate drain tube thoroughly up to drain inlet to minimize condensation on the drain tube. Insulated tube kit Part #W10365792 is available for purchase. Drain pump is designed to pump water to a maximum height of 10 ft (3 m). Use only Whirlpool approved drain pump kit Part Number 1901A. Do not connect the outlet end of the drain tube to a closed pipe system to keep drain water from backing up into the ice maker.
