Abstract: A stand-alone ice making appliance is provided. The stand-alone ice making appliance may include a container, a water tank, a pump, a reservoir, an ice maker, and a primary drain line. The container may define a first storage volume to receive ice. The water tank may define a second storage volume to receive water. The pump may be in fluid communication with the second storage volume to actively flow water from the water tank. The reservoir may define a third storage volume that is in fluid communication with the pump to receive water that is actively flowed from the water tank. The ice maker may be in fluid communication with the third storage volume to receive water from the reservoir. The primary drain line may be in downstream fluid communication with the second storage volume and bypass the reservoir to selectively drain water from the second storage volume.

Abstract: An icemaker appliance and method for reducing total dissolved solids is provided. The icemaker appliance includes a closed loop circuit including a conduit fluidly coupling together a water reservoir, an icemaking vessel, and an ice reservoir. A pump is configured to flow water through the conduit. A controller is configured to selectively operate the pump and the icemaking vessel. The controller is configured to allow a temperature at the icemaking vessel to be above freezing temperature of water at the conduit; and operate the pump to flow water through the closed loop circuit.
