An ice machine service is able to extend your unit’s life span by making sure it is always in tip top condition. During the service you can expect for bacteria to be destroyed. A general clean out will also help your ice machine to have improved production capacity. Future wear and tear is avoided by reducing rust and scale within the unit. An ice machine service entails chemical cleaning of the coil, complete mechanical and refrigeration checks, de-scaling and sanitising. At the end of a service you can expect the wiring and controls to be reset to factory specifications. During the service the technicians will see if any repairs need to be carried out or parts replaced. If this is the case, you will receive a quotation before any further work is carried out. On your approval of the quote, work will begin.

An ice machine service is never done on site unless they are very heavy industrial units. Most ice machines need to be transported to Ice Systems with the cost being to the client’s account. The general turn-around-time on a service is 48 – 72 hours. The regular service of your ice machine is advised for those who want to get the best out of their ice machine. You can even have a maintenance plan tailor-made to suit your specific needs and budget.

Why Service Your Ice Machine?

The ice machine you use is like that ever-faithful companion that you never think much about. It’s always there for you and you often take it for granted that it will continue to serve you whenever you need it. You should, though, understand that it is of vital importance for you to service your ice machine.  The results of not servicing your machine on the required annual basis will prove costly – both in terms of the repairs of replacement of the machine, and the effects on your business of not having the ice you need.

What exactly are the benefits and why should you service your ice machine? Firstly, it will lengthen the lifespan of your machine. When you make the investment in an ice maker you want to get the maximum benefit from it, and thus regular servicing will allow for you to get many more years out of your machine than if you neglect this task. The second benefit is that of destroying the bacterial build up in your machine. Wherever there is moisture, you can be sure that bacterial growth will take place. Unfortunately your ice maker is not immune to this and so an annual service will ensure you continue to use a hygienic machine. Further benefits include an increased production capacity as well as a decrease in maintenance costs by cleaning out rust and scale that would otherwise put additional wear and tear on the parts. It can be easily seen that the benefits of servicing your ice machine make it an important task to attend to.

If you’ve realised that you need to service your ice machine and no longer want to consign it to the realms of an often used but seldom thought about element in your business, then don’t delay. For further information please contact Ice Systems.
