For The Plumber
Drains: The ice maker requires a gravity drain for the reservoir overflow and bin drain. The pitch on the drain tubes must be at least 1/4 inch fall per foot of horizontal run. On long horizontal runs, a vent at the back of the cabinet will improve draining, and is recommended.
Water supply:
Connect cold, potable water to the machine. A hand valve near the location is recommended. A water filter is also a good idea.
Follow all local codes.
There are two drains and one water inlet connection to make.
The drains are: a copper bin drain tube; and a rubber reservoir overflow tube.
The water inlet connection is a 3/8" male flare.
Route a drain line to the reservoir overflow drain hose. Route a separate drain to the bin drain tube.
Route the inlet water line to the fitting on the corner post.
