To The Installer:
A professional installation of any product is critical
to the long term satisfaction of the user. The
AFE325 is designed to be installed indoors, near a
drain. Determine the location from the anticipated
use and any options planned for.
This air cooled machine blows air out the back and
left sides of the cabinet. Do not install the machine
where the air flow might be blocked.
The machine will require electrical power, water
and a drain. Follow all local codes. Rough in the
utilities before placing the machine into position
(see For The Electrician and For The Plumber).
After uncrating, install the legs or optional casters.
If the building’s drain is a floor drain near the
machine, the cabinet can be placed on the floor
and sealed around the edges.
Place the cabinet in the place where it will be
operating. Note that the electrical and water
connections need to be made.
Level the unit front to back and left to right.
Water Quality:
The quality of the water supplied to the machine
will directly affect the purity of the ice and the
reliability of the machine. While the condition of the
water supplied to a building is normally out of the
control of the user, water can be treated at the
point of use.
There are two major types of water impurities:
suspended solids (those that are carried along
with the water and may be filtered out) and
dissolved solids (those that are part of the water
and have to be treated). A water filter is always a
good idea, but does require regular maintenance
to change the cartridge. In some water conditions,
water treatment may be required. Generally this
means a polyphosphate feeder of some kind.
Water softeners are not recommended for the
AFE325.
