What is the water source for the ice?

You have to either fill it up, but I think it also has a connection like that of an ice maker for a fridge. We've had problems with the fridge automatic ice maker line always leaking, that is why we bought this and we fill it by hand. Several things to note, if you don't know them already; it does not keep the ice frozen after making it, you have to empty the bin when it is full. It takes awhile to start making the ice, but once it gets going it really puts out. We've had ours about 3 1/2 years and the automatic shutoff for when the water is empty and the ice bin is full has stopped working, but that hasn't been much of a problem, we just keep an eye on it, make a bunch of ice and put it in a large ice bin in our freezer. Hope this has helped. P.S. - When and if our's breaks, we will be buying a new one, it has definitely been worth it.

There are no water supply connections this the ice maker. The water comes out of the refrigerator and pours into the trough in the top right hand corner of the ice maker. As fare as how fast it makes ice will depend on the size of ice cubes you select to make and the setting on your refrigerator.

I have two of them, they melt the snow and make a channel to the gutter-down spout, melt water is gone. We are in Florida, but my daughter stops by our northern residence in the Buffalo, NY area and turns them on when we get snow which Buffalo gets on occasion.:) No icecycles since the installation which used to be a big problem.

The reservoir is a continuous fill so there should always be water available. If the cold water is completely drained and filled up again with room temperature it will take about 15 minutes for the gallon of water to be icy cold. We have these units in a lot of health clubs with no issues but if it is a very busy club you may want to consider ordering 2.

Ice huh. Probably depends on the ice thickness, your water temperature and pressure. This thing will clog up the line permitting water pressure to build but that is all. I would look at a Clog Hog instead. It runs off of a pressure washer and has a metal head that could bash against the ice like it did to my leaves.

Highest btu on the market. Might melt the cement under the ice. Will melt the ice and then evaporate the water so u have a dry sidewalk/driveway.

As a customer of Amazon your question was sent me as a purchaser of this products. This is the water inlet for your Ice maker, there are two. One with a water filter option, and this one without. I suggest you shut your water off and remove your to confirm this one matches. Dan

There is no ice core. The middle is a basket to hold whatever you wish. You can use it to fill with ice as the holes in the "basket" are quite small and will hold the ice until it is virtually melted.

Ho how are you. Well i actually have not used it as of yet until next month on a house warming outdoors... so i really dont have an answer to that. Im sorry.. but i tell you that is well done to put ice for sure...on the bottom also has a small hole where u can drain the water out as well sort of like a wine cork. Is a bit tough to open and close it but eventually it is manageable.

I don't, but it's all brass so why not...connect using 1/4" copper tubing. The metal would probably be very hot to the touch! Mine is hooked up with the water filter going to the ice maker.

On the right side of the ice maker is a wire that acts as a sensor. In the UP position it tells the ice maker to stop producing ice. In the down position it signals the ice maker to make more ice. It often gets stuck in the up position. Just reach back and pull it down. The water filter does not have to be in the refrig for the ice maker to work. I assume that you are able to get water through the water dispenser; because no water, no ice.

The ice is held in a basket overtop of the water tank so as it melts it goes back into the water tank. You have to put the ice in your freezer to save it. This ice maker will brake on you!

No, but be sure there is not a filter in the filter holder. Once it is to dirty it won't work for ice or water.

You pour ice into the top of the snow cone machine. So you don't necessarily need running water. You can go buy bags if ice. Unfortunately, the machine is not refrigerated so any ice in the machine would melt after a few hours.

I agree with jsto's comments....I never thought to put ice in their with the water. I'll will try that. I bought that unit for my enclosed patio because I didn't want to have a hole in my patio for draining.

Well, now you have me curious about that. All I can find out at this moment is it is the composition of distilled water and urea (made from carbon nitrogen & oxygen). I will continue to search for that answer and get back to you as to why it would stop freezing.

No, you have 2 plastic containers to freeze water in. These are used to make the shaved ice. After you use them you fill them back up with water and refeeze to use again.
