91Design ■ Features ■ PerformanceGRAVITY DRAIN INSTALLATIONThese guidelines must be followed when installing drain lines to prevent water from flowing back into theice maker storage bin and potentially flowing onto the floor causing water damage:• Drain lines and fittings must have a 5/8" inside diameter.• Drain lines must have a 1" drop per 48" of run (1/4" per foot) and must not create traps.• The floor drain must be large enough to accommodate drainage from all drains.• Insulate the bin drain line to prevent condensation.Be sure to follow these guidelines to prevent water backing up into the storage bin.Below are examples of gravity drain line installations. If a trap is in the drain line, the drain line must bevented to ensure proper draining. Without the vent, water will backup until enough pressure builds up toforce the water past the trap. Water may backup into the ice bin before the amount of pressure needed isachieved. Water in the storage bin will cause the ice in the bin to melt prematurely.The customer’s complaint will be slow ice production. The ice that has been made is meltingprematurely because water is backing up in the ice bin.FROM ICE MAKER TO FLOOR DRAIN1. Normal Drain.
