Plumbing Requirements
For integrated models with an automatic ice maker, the
water supply line should be located through the floor or
back wall, within the shaded area shown in the illustra-
tions. Routing the line in these locations will avoid any
interference with the anti-tip bracket.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Do not route the water supply line in
front of the compressor tray. The tray must be slid forward
for service.
The water supply line should be connected to the house
supply with an easily accessible shut-off valve between
the supply and the unit. Do not use self-piercing valves.
A saddle valve kit is available from your authorized
Sub-Zero dealer.
An in-line filter is required when water conditions have
a high sediment content.
A reverse osmosis system can be used provided there is
constant water pressure of 20 psi
(1.4 bar)
to 100 psi
(6.9 bar)
supplied to the unit at all times. In some cases,
a reverse osmosis water filter system may not be able to
maintain the minimum pressure consistently. A copper line
is not recommended for this application.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
All installations must meet local
plumbing code requirements.
