Nothing is worse than dirty, smelly, and foul-tasting ice, and in most cases, it’s a direct result of a lack of cleaning, sanitizing, and routine water filter changes. At Capital Equipment, we’ve seen some pretty dirty ice machines over the years and have helped ensure that hundreds of them get professionally cleaned, sanitized, and back to making quality, clean ice.
Commercial Ice Machine Service and Repair in Kansas City, St Joseph, and Leavenworth, KS
As each business and industry is unique, cleaning and sanitizing schedules tend to vary based on the amount of ice used, the environment that the ice equipment is located, and the type of ice machines that determines how frequently service is needed. For example, an ice machine in a warehouse or industrial setting will likely need to be cleaned and sanitized more often than ice equipment in a small office. This is because hundreds of hands come in contact with the ice machines daily while there are also contaminates in the air, which can easily end up in the ice bins. Also, most of the Midwest is a hard water area meaning that there are excessive minerals in the water, which over time can begin to build up and hinder efficiency on internal parts, water lines, water dispensers, and water filters in commercial ice machines. For smaller business environments, ice machines, in many cases, need to be professionally cleaned every few months; however, the exterior of the equipment should be cleaned more regularly, especially when you consider that metal surfaces can harbor germs and bacteria if not addressed.
Hotels and hospital ice machines often need a more frequent cleaning and service schedule as they tend to get a lot of use by many different people and, particularly in health care settings, are exposed to a wide array of potential contaminates. At Capital Equipment, we understand that each and every business is unique in its ice needs which is why we customize a cleaning, sanitizing, and service schedule to ensure there is always clean, quality ice in their bins.
