Drain Connection
Gravity Drain System
Connect the ice maker drain 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 help keep water from owing back
into the ice maker storage bin and potentially owing onto the
oor, causing water damage.
■ Drain lines must have a minimum of
5
⁄
8
" (15.88 mm) inside
diameter.
■ Drain lines must have a 1" drop per 48" (2.54 cm drop per
122 cm) of run or ¼" drop per 12" (6.35 mm per 30.48 cm) of
run and must not have low points where water can settle.
■ The oor drains must be large enough to accommodate
drainage from all drains.
■ The ideal installation has a standpipe with a 1½" (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 hose and the standpipe.
■ 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.
IMPORTANT: A drain pump is necessary when a oor drain is not
available. A Drain Pump kit, Part Number 1901A, is available for
purchase.
