What SoHo does
to an ice maker.

An enlargement in 2010 stretched the cast-iron historic district over most of West Broadway and east as far as Lafayette Street.

The upper floors of many SoHo buildings were built as commercial lofts with large, open spaces for manufacturing.

Since 2005, new residential buildings have been allowed on empty lots inside the historic district.

Older housing stock

Older houses often feed the ice maker through a saddle valve clamped onto a copper pipe, a fitting plumbers no longer recommend, and its rubber seal hardens with age until a slow drip at the clamp soaks the subfloor behind the unit.

Tower living

Water climbs a tower by booster pump or roof tank, and the pressure that reaches one kitchen is not always what an ice maker's inlet valve needs, so a mold that fills short and drops small, hollow cubes has the pressure at its valve measured before any part is ordered.

Small kitchens and bars

In a small kitchen the ice maker's water line is coiled into a very shallow gap, and each time the unit is rolled out to mop behind it that coil can fold, so a door ice maker that fills slowly after a cleaning day is checked at its tube first.
