Product Care Information
Installing the Scotsman Water Filtration System involves a few steps to ensure that your ice machine receives the best possible water quality. Here’s a simplified guide to help you with the installation:
-
Identify the Installation Location: Choose a location where the filter will be easily accessible for maintenance and cartridge replacement. Ensure there’s enough clearance around the filter for easy installation and servicing.
-
Mount the Filter Head: Securely mount the filter head to a wall or a panel near the ice machine, making sure it’s in a vertical position with the cartridges hanging down.
-
Install the Cartridge: Insert the cartridge into the filter head. Make sure it’s firmly seated and locked in place.
-
Connect Water Supply: Attach the incoming water line to the inlet side of the filter head. Ensure all connections are secure to prevent leaks.
-
Flush the System: Before connecting the outlet side to your ice machine, flush the system according to the manufacturer’s instructions to remove any carbon fines and to ensure the system is filled with water.
-
Connect to Ice Machine: After flushing, connect the outlet side of the filter to the water inlet of your ice machine.
-
Check for Leaks: Turn on the water supply and check all connections for leaks. Tighten any fittings if necessary.
-
Register the Product: Don’t forget to register your product for warranty purposes and to get support from Scotsman if needed.
For detailed instructions, it’s always best to refer to the official installation manual provided by Scotsman. If you’re not comfortable performing the installation yourself, consider hiring a professional technician to ensure it’s done correctly.

Detailed Features & Benefits
Advanced Filtration Technology: The AP1-P uses ultrafine half-micron filtration to remove particles, off-tastes, and odors from the water supply. Unlike typical filters, it retains a controlled amount of chlorine to help keep the ice machine cleaner for longer periods.
Scale Prevention and Machine Protection: A built-in polyphosphate feed inhibits scale buildup, protecting internal components from mineral deposits. This reduces the need for frequent descaling and helps maintain energy efficiency over time.
Improved Ice Quality: By eliminating contaminants and odors, the AP1-P produces clearer, better-tasting ice. This ensures a consistent supply of high-quality ice for foodservice and hospitality operations.
Reduced Maintenance Costs: The system can lower unscheduled water-related service calls by up to 40%. This translates to less downtime, fewer repairs, and improved operational efficiency for businesses.
Enhanced Hygiene: AquaArmor with AgION antimicrobial technology provides added protection against bacteria, mold, and slime growth. This feature helps maintain a cleaner ice-making environment and supports long-term machine performance.
NOTICE: Do not use with water that is unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection either before or after the system.
