Frequently Asked Questions - H80CIMW Perlick

What are the minimum and maximum ambient temperatures for operating the H80CIMW ice maker?

The ambient temperature must be between 45°F and 100°F (7°C to 38°C) for normal operation. Extended operation outside this range may affect performance.

Can I install the H80CIMW outdoors?

Yes, the H80CIMW is approved for both indoor and outdoor use. However, ensure it is not exposed to sub-freezing temperatures and that the ambient temperature stays within the recommended range.

What type of water supply connection does the ice maker require?

The water supply inlet is 1/2" FPT. Use a minimum 1/4" nominal ID copper water tubing or equivalent. A shut-off valve and drain valve must be installed. The water pressure should be between 7 PSIG and 113 PSIG.

How do I clean and sanitize the ice maker?

Clean and sanitize every 6 months. Use Nu-Calgon Liquid Ice Machine Cleaner diluted with warm water for cleaning, then a 5.25% sodium hypochlorite solution (bleach) diluted with warm water for sanitizing. Follow the detailed steps in the manual, including pouring solution over the extruding head and running the cycle.

What should I do if the ice maker stops producing ice?

First, check the control switch is set to ICE. Ensure the water supply is on and the bin is not full. If the bin control thermostat is engaged (ice touching the bulb), remove ice from the bulb area. Also check for any error conditions. If none, wait at least 3 minutes before restarting.

Can I install a custom door panel on the H80CIMW?

Yes, the H80CIMW supports overlay panels. The panel must be custom-fabricated with a maximum weight of 20 lbs (9 kg), thickness between 5/8" and 3/4". The manual provides detailed fabrication and attachment instructions.

What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the storage bin drain?

To prevent clogs, clean the storage bin drain every 3 months or more often if needed. Use a sanitizing solution (5.25% bleach diluted in 2.5 gallons of warm water) poured into the bin and allowed to drain. Then rinse with neutral cleaner and water.

Is the H80CIMW ADA compliant?

The H80CIMW itself is not ADA compliant, but the model H80CIMW-AD is the ADA compliant version with a 32" (814 mm) minimum height installation.

How do I prepare the ice maker for extended non-use or freezing temperatures?

Turn the control switch to OFF, close the water supply shut-off valve, drain the water system using the DRAIN position, and blow out the water lines with compressed air or CO2. Also clean the storage bin. Do not leave the appliance on during extended absences.

What should I do if water collects in the bin and does not drain?

Turn off the appliance and close the water supply shut-off valve. Call for service immediately. This could indicate a clogged drain or a faulty drain pump (if installed). Do not attempt to operate until the issue is resolved.
