Connecting the drain
Gravity drain system
Connect the drain pump hose (provided with the product)
to your drain in accordance with all state and local codes
and ordinances. If the ice maker is provided with a gravity
drain system, follow these guidelines when installing drain
lines: (This will prevent water from flowing back into the ice
maker storage bin and potentially flowing onto the floor
causing water damage.)
■ Drain lines must have a minimum of
⁵⁄₈" (1.6 cm) 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” [(.635 cm) per
30.5 cm)] and must not have 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 pump
hose and the standpipe.
■ It may be desirable to insulate the drain line thoroughly
up to the drain inlet.
After ensuring that the drain system is adequate, follow
these steps to properly place the ice maker:
1. Plug in ice maker or reconnect power.
2. Re-check the ice maker to be sure that it is level. See
the “Leveling the Ice Maker” section.
3. Push the ice maker into position so that the ice maker
drain tube is positioned over the PVC drain reducer.

have been made.
