No double check valve appeared to be on water supply line of ice machine and steamer. The plumbing system must be protected from backflow of a solid, liquid or gas contaminant at each point of use on food service equipment by installing an approved backflow prevention device (dual check valve) on water supply line. (Section 5-203.14 of NC Food Code Manual). If double check valves are not present on ice machine and steamer water supply lines, they are to be installed.
