Keeping your ice-machine sparkling clean isn’t just about good looks, 

it’s the secret to crystal-clear, great-tasting ice

that keep your customers coming back.

Here’s what a regular cleaning does for your bottom line:

When mineral scale, biofilm and particles build up, 

ice cubes can absorb off-flavors and odors.

• Prevent stale, metallic, or musty tastes.
• Keep ice cubes visually clear instead of cloudy or speckled.
• Ensure every drink your customers take will taste its absolute best.

Ice is often taken for granted, 

but it’s still used in all your beverages. 

Without cleaning:

• Bacteria, mold, and yeast can colonize inside the machine.
• Risk of foodborne illness or allergic reactions increases.
• Cross-contamination from other food can become possible.

Scale and grime make your machine work harder, driving up utility costs.

 Regular descaling and sanitizing:

• Improves water flow and freezing speed.
• Reduces energy consumption by up to 20 percent.
• Keeps production consistent so you never run out of ice at crunch time.

A neglected ice-machine can strain its compressor, pump, and valves. 

Professional cleaning can:

• Avoid premature wear and corrosive damage.
• Maintain optimal performance of sensors and thermostats.
• Defer costly replacements. 
• Protect your bottom line.

Minor buildup can lead to major breakdown.

Routine cleaning:

• Identifies early signs of leaks and worn gaskets.
• Stops calcium deposits from damaging heat exchangers.
• Save on emergency service calls and unplanned downtime.

Professionally cleaning an ice machine takes a few important steps: 

We remove all ice, 

rinse, descale, sanitize the unit, 

rinse the machine and bin, 

refill bin with ice. 

We also inspect the machine components for wear and tear by taking the amp draw and current readings to find signs of component damage.

Most manufacturers recommend having this done every three months,

 (more often in high-use settings).

We can tailor a cleaning schedule as needed.

Your ice-machine can run without a filter, but adding one can transform your ice’s taste, extend equipment life and cut down on maintenance. 

Let’s break it down.

• Improves taste & removes odor.   
• Removes chlorine, sulfur compounds, and other contaminants that can leave your ice tasting “off.”
• Boosts clarity by clearing out fine sediments and minerals that can make ice cubes cloudy.
• Prevents scale buildup from hard-water (calcium, magnesium) deposits on evaporator plate and hoses that reduce efficiency.
• Enhances hygiene by trapping sediment and organic matter that feed bacteria and mold in the reservoir.

• Frequent cleaning scale and sediment force more aggressive cleanings every 1–2 months instead of every 6–12 months.
• Shortened lifespan from mineral deposits can accelerate wear on pumps, valves, and sensors.
• Inconsistent ice quality. 
• You might get smaller cubes, slower production rates, or odd tastes.
• Potential health concerns from unfiltered water can carry bacteria and protozoa.

• If you have soft or treated water or if your tap delivers under 60 ppm total hardness and minimal chlorine, the benefits of a filter may drop off.

• Remember that your willingness to schedule a descale and deep-clean of your ice machine regularly can increase the units ROI.

We sell, install and can annually replace your water filter.
