1. Unit must be at least 3” from back wall for air circulation. Adequate air circulation must be provided on top
and other sides for performance.
2. If air cooled ice maker is installed in a closed room, 1000
C.F.M. of air must be exchanged through the room to maintain the room air at 10’ F. warmer than the available
ambient air temperature.
3. The head may be installed on either a Whirlpool bin or
field-constructed bin. In either case, be sure the floor will
support the combined weight of the ice maker and the

must be level to insure proper water flow over the freezing
plates.
If height of ice maker exceeds 90” when installed on a
Whirlpool bin and bin expander a leg kit model CECK3
