The ice maker's requirements
The 15-inch (the 1.25's — the 15's; the 2026's), the 1.25 (the 15's — the 15's; the 2026's), the 15-amp (the 15's — the 1.25's; the 2026's), the 2026 (the 15's — the 1.25's; the 15's), the 15 (the 15's — the 1.25's; the 2026's), and the 1.25 (the 15's — the 15's; the 2026's).
Plumbing and electrical
The 15-amp (the 15's — the 1.25's; the 2026's), the 120V (the 15's — the 15's; the 2026's), the 1/4-inch (the 15's — the 1.25's; the supply'), the 2026 (the 15's — the 15's; the 1/4's), the 15 (the 15's — the 1/4's; the 2026's), and the 1.25 (the 15's — the 15's; the 2026's).
Permits and cost
The $0-$100 (the plumbing's — the 2026's; the 15's), the $300-$1,200+ (the 15's — the 1.25's; the 2026's), the 15-inch (the 1.25's — the 15's; the 3's — the 300's), and the 2026 (the 15's — the 15's; the 0's). The 15's — the 1.25's ice maker; the 15's — the amp.
The bottom line
Ice makers (15-inch/1.25-ft typical) need plumbing permits in ~40% of jurisdictions in 2026 ($0-$100; 15-amp/120V, 1/4-in supply) — budget $300-$1,200+; drain routing is the real gate.
