F. Water Supply and Drain Connections
WARNING
Water supply and drain connections must be installed in accordance with applicable
national, state, and local regulations.
NOTICE
• Normal operating water temperature must be within 45°F to 90°F (7°C to
32°C). Operation of the icemaker, for extended periods, outside of this normal
temperature range may affect icemaker performance.
• To prevent damage to equipment, do not operate the icemaker when the water
supply is off, or if the pressure is below 7 PSIG. Do not run the icemaker until the
proper water pressure is reached.
• Connect to potable water supply only. Do not connect to a hot-water supply.
• In areas where water damage is a concern, install in a contained area with a floor
drain.
• Water line installation to the icemaker is not warranted by Hoshizaki.
• Water-hammer issues must be resolved by a qualified plumber before installing
the icemaker. Water hammer can cause icemaker damage that may lead to water
leakage or flooding.
• If using the optional drain pump (HS-5061), test its operation every time the
icemaker is cleaned and sanitized. See "IV.E. Optional Drain Pump HS-5061" for
details. If the optional drain pump is not operating properly, water could back up
and overflow, leading to costly water damage.
• A plumbing permit and services of a licensed plumber may be required in some areas.
• External filters, strainers, or softeners may be required depending on water quality.
Contact your local Hoshizaki Certified Service Representative for recommendations.
• Water supply inlet is 1/2" female pipe thread (FPT).
