Congratulations on your purchase of a U-Line refrigeration product.

an automatic stand-alone undercounter residential ice maker. His
foresight and determination to develop new ideas and to succeed
when there were no clear guidelines or solutions are evident today.
The newest Uihlein generation continues to build upon the family’s
innovative legacy at the Milwaukee, Wisconsin based business by
