Sioux Chief 696-G1010MF No-Lead Ice Maker Outlet Box with Sweat Connection and Water Hammer Arrester
The Sioux Chief 696-G1010MF is a no-lead ice maker outlet box built for rough-in behind refrigerator and ice maker locations. It uses a sweat (solder) connection for copper tube hookup and includes an integrated water hammer arrester that absorbs pressure surges right at the appliance connection point, rather than relying on a separate arrester elsewhere in the line. Combining the outlet box and the arrester into a single no-lead assembly lets a plumber rough in the ice maker supply line, the box, and the surge protection in one step instead of stopping to add a stand-alone arrester fitting. Manufactured in the United States, this outlet box ships 10 EA per carton for distributor and contractor stock, making it a practical item to keep on the truck or shelf for kitchen refrigerator and ice maker rough-in calls.
Key Features
- Dedicated Ice Maker Outlet Box: Provides a recessed, protected connection point behind the wall for ice maker and refrigerator water supply lines, keeping the connection out of the appliance space and out of sight behind the finished wall.
- Sweat Connection: Sweat (solder) connection accepts copper tube for a soldered supply-line hookup during rough-in, matching standard copper ice maker supply runs.
- Integrated Water Hammer Arrester: A built-in arrester absorbs pressure spikes at the ice maker connection point, reducing water hammer noise and stress on the supply line and fittings each time the refrigerator's water valve cycles.
- No-Lead Construction: No-lead compliant construction for potable water ice maker supply applications.
- One-Piece Assembly: Outlet box and arrester are combined into a single no-lead fitting, reducing the number of separate parts a plumber has to source, sweat, and support at the rough-in stage.
- Contractor Packaging: Packaged 10 EA per carton, sized for rough-in stocking on new construction and remodel jobs.
