Plumbing
Self-Contained
Condensate from the cooling coil is automatically
evaporated from the condensate pan located in
the condensing unit housing on self-contained
models.
Self-Contained & Remote
Each unit is equipped with a oor drain located
in the right rear corner of the cabinet. The drain
can be plumbed to an external oor drain by
connecting to the 3/4” NPT thread connection on
the side, or the 1” NPS thread connection out the
bottom, of the unit. Both drain ports come plugged
from the factory and can be removed if needed.
Remotes
Dispensing head drainers should be plumbed to
a dump tank or oor drain. Always rinse drainer
with su󰀩cient amounts of water daily to prevent
drain from clogging.
Remote evaporator condensate plumbing should
be routed out on of the cabinet side access holes
or to one of the oor drains and should always
be sloped to the drain with no rise to prevent
drainage. A trap should be used, however, trap
peak must be below condensate drain pan nipple.
Electrical
The cabinet must be connected to a separately
fused power source (see Electrical Specication
Plate a󰀩xed to unit) in accordance with National
and Local electrical codes.
Self-contained Perlick units come equipped with
a NEMA 5-15P 90° plug with an 8’ cord extending
beyond the rear of the cabinet. The electrical
outlet must be ush with, or recessed into, the
wall surface.
NOTE: Never use an extension cord to extend the
power cord to the electrical receptacle.

• Floor must be level in area of installation.
Preparing the Space
CAUTION
Make sure the oor under
the unit is level with the
surrounding nished oor. Protect a nished
oor with plywood, cardboard or some other
suitable material before moving the unit into
place. Failure to do this may result in damage
to the oor.
NOTE: If unit has been laid on its back or sides,
place unit upright and allow minimum of 24 hours
before connecting to a power source. Failure to
follow this procedure may damage the compressor
and void warranty.
1. Make sure the space opening is correctly
sized for the unit. See Dimension drawings at
the back of this manual for correct dimensions.
NOTE: For a cabinet door to open properly, the
door must open a minimum of 90°. Use a minimum
3” ller in corner installations to assure a 90°
opening. Allow 24” clearance in front of the unit
for full door swing and shelf/drawer pull-out.
2. Check that the following are level and square:
• Front and interior opening
• Installation opening and oor surface
NOTE: The oor under the unit must be at the
same level as the surrounding nished oor.
Casters or Legs
Refer to the instructions included with the Casters
or Legs Kit.
Installing the Unit
CAUTION
If unit has been laid on its
back or sides, place unit
upright and allow minimum of 24 hours before

Sealing Cabinet to Floor
For units without casters or legs, it may be
necessary to seal the base of the cabinet to the
oor. This can be accomplished by laying a bead
of silicone sealant between the base of the cabinet
and the oor (Figure 1).
Faucet and Dispensing Head Installation
Refer to the instructions included with the Faucet
and Dispensing Head Kit.
• Factory temperature settings:
