Connecting the Drain Line:
1. Locate the floor drain near the ice maker. The distance should be less than 4.5 feet since the
length of the long drain hose provided with the ice maker is about 4.5 feet.
2. Connect the drain hose to the back of ice maker, then insert the other end of the hose into the
drain line.
3. All horizontal runs of drain lines must have a fall of
1
/
4
” per foot. An air gap will likely be required
between the ice maker drain hose and the drain/waste receptacle. A stand pipe with a trap
below it would be acceptable for the drain/waste receptacle. A floor drain is also acceptable.
4. Pour 1 gallon of water into the ice storage bin to check for proper drainage.
