Location of Ice Machine

The location selected for the ice machine must meet the
following criteria. If any of these criteria are not met,
select another location.

The location must be free of airborne and other
contaminants.

The air temperature must be at least 35°F (1.6°C),
but must not exceed 110°F (43.4°C).

The location must not be near heat-generating
equipment or in direct sunlight and must be protected
from weather.

The location must not obstruct air flow through or
around the ice machine. Refer to the chart below for
clearance requirements.

Ice Machine Heat of Rejection

Ice machines, like other refrigeration equipment, reject

heat through the condenser. It is helpful to know the

amount of heat rejected by the ice machine when sizing

air conditioning equipment where self-contained air-

cooled ice machines are installed.
This information is also necessary when evaluating the

benefits of using water-cooled or remote condensers to

reduce air conditioning loads. The amount of heat added

to an air conditioned environment by an ice machine

using a water-cooled or remote condenser is negligible.
Knowing the amount of heat rejected is also important

when sizing a cooling tower for a water-cooled

condenser. Use the peak figure for sizing the cooling

tower.

*There is no minimum clearance required for water-cooled or

remote ice machines. This value is recommended for efficient
operation and servicing only.

! Caution

The ice machine must be protected if it will be
subjected to temperatures below 32°F (0°C).
Failure caused by exposure to freezing
temperatures is not covered by the warranty. See
“Removal from Service/Winterization”.
