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:

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. Install the Cartridge: Insert the cartridge into the filter head. Make sure it’s firmly seated and locked in place.

  4. Connect Water Supply: Attach the incoming water line to the inlet side of the filter head. Ensure all connections are secure to prevent leaks.

  5. 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.

  6. Connect to Ice Machine: After flushing, connect the outlet side of the filter to the water inlet of your ice machine.

  7. Check for Leaks: Turn on the water supply and check all connections for leaks. Tighten any fittings if necessary.

  8. 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.

FAQ


Q: How often should the filter cartridge be replaced?

A: The replacement frequency depends on water quality and usage, but it's generally recommended to replace the cartridge every 6 months or when the flow rate noticeably decreases.

Q: Is this filter NSF certified?

A: Yes, the AP1-P has been tested and listed by NSF for compliance with NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for chlorine reduction and taste/odor improvement, and Standard 53 for health effects including turbidity, cyst, and asbestos reduction.

Q: Can this filter be used with non-Scotsman ice machines?

A: While designed for optimal performance with Scotsman machines, the AP1-P may be compatible with other brands if the connections and flow rates match. However, it's best to consult with Scotsman or a professional installer to ensure compatibility.


Detailed Features & Benefits


Advanced Filtration Technology: The AP1-P employs a sophisticated ultrafine half-micron filtration system that effectively removes a wide range of contaminants from the water supply. This level of filtration is crucial for ice machines, as it helps eliminate particles, off-tastes, and odors that can affect ice clarity and taste. What sets the AP1-P apart is its unique approach to chlorine: unlike many filters that remove all chlorine, this system leaves a controlled amount in the water. This residual chlorine acts as a natural sanitizer, helping to keep the ice machine cleaner for longer periods and potentially extending the time between deep cleaning cycles. This feature can significantly reduce maintenance needs and associated costs for businesses.

Scale Prevention and Machine Protection: One of the most valuable features of the AP1-P is its built-in scale prevention mechanism. The system incorporates a polyphosphate feed that inhibits scale formation, a common issue in ice machines, especially in areas with hard water. By reducing the minerals that cause scale, this filter plays a crucial role in protecting the ice machine's internal components. This scale inhibition feature translates to several tangible benefits: it extends the life of the machine, reduces the frequency of descaling procedures, and helps maintain the machine's energy efficiency over time. For businesses, this means lower maintenance costs, reduced downtime, and more consistent ice production. Additionally, the AquaArmor with AgION antimicrobial technology provides an extra layer of protection against microbial growth, further enhancing the system's ability to maintain a clean and efficient ice-making environment.


NOTICE: Ensure proper maintenance and cleaning of your ice machine to guarantee the highest quality ice production and machine longevity.
