How KitchenAid Ice Makers and Freezers Work
The 15-inch undercounter ice makers circulate water over a freezing plate for clear cubes and use a built-in drain pump that allows installation up to 10 feet from the drain line. Source: KitchenAid - 15-Inch 25 lb. Automatic Ice Maker with Clear Ice Technology (KUIX515SPS)
Refrigerator ice makers come in several styles, switched by a wire shutoff arm (which a full bin lifts to the off position), an on/off switch on the ice maker or the freezer door wall, or the control panel menu on digital models.
