Installation Instructions
Location of Ice Machine
The location selected for the ice machine must meet the
following criteria. If any of these criteria are not met,
select another location.
•
The location must be free of airborne and other
contaminants.
•
The ice machine will operate in an air temperature
range of 45°F to 110°F (7°C to 43°C) although the
recommended air temperature is 60°F to 100°F
(16°C to 38°C)
•
The ice machine will operate with water temperature
range of 45°F to 90°F (7°C to 32°C) although the
recommended water temperature range is 55°F to
80° F (13°C to 27°C).
•
The location must not be near heat-generating
equipment or in direct sunlight.
•
The location must be capable of supporting the
weight of the ice machine and a full bin of ice.
•
The location must allow enough clearance for water,
drain and electrical connections in the
rear of the ice
machine.
•
The location must not obstruct airflow through or
around the ice machine. QF0406A airflow is in and
out of the front of the ice machine. Refer to below for
clearance requirements.

Ice Machine Heat of Rejection
Ice machines, like other refrigeration equipment, reject
heat through the condenser. It is helpful to know the
amount of heat rejected by the ice machine when sizing
the air conditioning equipment where self-contained air-
cooled ice machines are installed.
Important
Failure to follow these installation guidelines may
affect warranty coverage.

Caution
The ice machine must be protected if it will be
subjected to temperatures below 32°F (0°C).
Failure caused by exposure to freezing
temperatures is not covered by the warranty. See
