Remote installation • Is there an outdoor condenser location available? • Is there easy roof access and penetration? • Maximum precharged tubing line run considerations?

SIZING YOUR ICE MAKER

• Does the existing ice maker meet peak usage during the hottest time of the year? • Where are the various ice stations in the establishment that will need ice? • Will multiple ice stations be serviced from one or multiple ice makers? • For future growth, consider building in at least 20 percent additional ice capacity on new installations.

• For dispenser applications, increase machine production by 50%
