Water Supply
The ice machine must be connected to a potable, active cold
water supply line delivering water pressure at a minimum of 20
psi and a maximum of 120 psi.
• Water connection is made through a right angle garden
hose fitting supplied with the ice machine. See Figure 11
for detailed instructions. DO NOT USE ANY THREAD SEAL-
ERS.
• A water filter can be used with this unit. A quality filter can
help remove particles as well as remove taste and odors
from water.
• DO NOT USE A “REVERSE OSMOSIS” FILTERING DEVICE.
• Softened water is not recommended. This will produce
soft, cloudy ice cubes that will stick together.
• De-ionized water is not recommended. This water will not
form solid ice cubes.
• A water specialist can recommend proper water treatment.
• When installing a water line for this unit a shutoff valve is
recommended. NOTE: DO NOT USE A SELF-PIERCING TYPE
VALVE.
• After installation of water line, turn on water and check for
any leaks. Additional tightening may be needed.
• Allow for extra water line for built-in installations for easy
removal of unit and to help prevent the water line from
kinking.
