Marvel 30iMT - Connecting the Water Supply; Water Supply Requirements; Water Filter Recommendations

Water Supply
The ice machine must be connected to a potable, active
cold water supply line delivering water pressure at a mini-
mum 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 10 for detailed instructions. DO NOT USE ANY
THREAD SEALERS.
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 treat-•
ment.
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.
