Which appliances are considered when measuring the maximum length of flexible fixture supply lines?

The maximum length of flexible fixture supply lines is important for ensuring adequate water pressure and flow to appliances. When considering this measurement, both dishwashers and icemakers must be accounted for, as they typically have similar requirements for water supply.

Dishwashers are designed to process a large volume of water to clean dishes effectively, while icemakers require a steady and consistent flow of water to produce ice. If either appliance is supplied with a line that exceeds the recommended maximum length, it can lead to reduced water pressure, insufficient water delivery, and potential operational issues.

Since both appliances rely on proper water supply for their function, they both need to be included when assessing the maximum length of flexible supply lines. This ensures that, irrespective of distance from the water source, each appliance can operate effectively without compromising performance.
