Your Summer Ice Specialists In Kansas City

Summer and cold drinks go hand in hand (no pun intended) but heat and humidity can be tough on commercial ice machines especially when they aren’t professionally installed or the manufacturer of the equipment is sub-par. Ambient air temperatures are something that we at Capital Equipment always have to consider when we deliver and install ice machines and ice equipment for our customers because high temperatures (like we see in the summer months in the Kansas City area) can greatly affect the quality of ice and not to mention put unnecessary stress on your ice machine(s).

Commercial Ice Machine Service, Sales, and Rentals in Kansas City, St Joseph, and Lawrence

Proper airflow near water lines is essential to keeping the commercial ice machines producing ice at an optimal rate. If there is other equipment that puts off heat or the room temperature is above 70 degrees, it could impact not only the time it takes to make ice but also the quality. When Capital Equipment installs ice machines for our customers, we look at every environmental factor to ensure that airflow and air temperatures won’t hinder the equipment’s ice-making abilities. We make sure that the water filters we install are also placed where they won’t be heated up by other equipment giving off heat or the ice machines we are installing.

Speaking of water filters, making sure that our technicians install the correct size and brand of filter for your brand of machine is something we never cut corners on. We keep an eye out throughout the metro area for any boil orders and let our customers know that they need to change them out to ensure that clean water is entering their ice machines and quality ice is in their bins. Just like every summer in Kansas City, ice will be in high demand and with the heat and humidity we’re sure to see, it can hard on your commercial ice machine(s). Call Capital Equipment at (913) 683-8972 and let one of our factory-trained technicians make sure your ice equipment is ready for summer or CLICK HERE FOR OUR ONLINE CONTACT FORM.

A Brief History Of Ice Machines

ice-machine-service-repair-cleaning-maintenance

While ice makers and commercial ice machines may seem more like a modern convenience because they are common in nearly every home, office, restaurant and business today, they have actually been around for quite a while. Of course there have been huge leaps in technology to help produce cleaner and higher quality ice more quickly at the push of a button but the principle mechanics for ice makers remains pretty much the same as when they were invented. Here’s a quick history on the origin of the ice machines as we know them today.

Commercial Ice Machines in Kansas City, Atchison, and Overland Park, KS

The use of ice itself by humans has been around since the beginning of time but was first recorded as far back as 400 BC when ancient Egyptians would use clay pots filled with water to be left out overnight in the cold to freeze and then stored underground to keep it preserved. In other parts of the world, ice could be harvested from frozen lakes and rivers as any kid that has seen the movie Frozen can tell you. But it wasn’t until the 1840’s when a New England man named Fredric Tudor began to not only harvest ice on a mass scale but also found ways to effectively ship it without it melting which, as you might expect, created a huge demand for ice on a global scale. Refrigeration had already been invented in 1834 by Jacob Perkins who was the first to patent a refrigerator as we know them today using ether in a vapor compression cycle. But an American doctor named John Gorrie was the first to truly produce a refrigerator or cooling device as we know them today in 1844 in an effort to help keep his patients cool from fevers but he opted to introduce it to public by offering chilled wine at a Bastille Day festival offering cold beverages to festival goers on a hot July day. While the ether powered refrigerator invented by Gorrie and Perkins would later be found to be a danger especially when ether would leak out, two inventors named Charles Franklin Kettering and Thomas Midgely, Jr. discovered Freon in 1928 which would still use Gorrie’s principle of condensing, throttling, and evaporating air but in a much safer way. Many more technological advancements would be made after the foundation for refrigeration and ice making were laid and you’d be hard pressed to not go anywhere without seeing coolers, freezers, or ice machines using the same methods and principles in the modern world today.

At Capital Equipment, we understand the basic principles of what makes ice makers work but more importantly we understand modern commercial ice machines and how to make them produce ice best.

Office, Hospital, and Hotel Ice Machines

countertop-ice-dispensers-Kansas-City-MO-Overland-Park-KS

For many businesses, ice is an absolute necessity and while things have certainly changed since the onset of COVID-19 earlier this year, the demand for ice and ice machines has not changed.

Commercial Ice Machines in Kansas City, Overland Park and St Joseph

At Capital Equipment, we have been helping Kansas City area businesses get through these past few months by providing even more cleaning, maintenance and sanitizing of commercial ice machines and ice equipment while also helping them replace, upgrade and/or add new ice machines for their customers and staff.

Ice Machines For Offices in Kansas City

Many offices are slowly starting to reopen and the need for providing ice and quality drinking water is increasing. At Capital Equipment, our representatives consult directly with business owners and office managers to determine what the best options are as it pertains to installing and maintaining ice machines and/or ice and water combo machines. We want to gain in understanding of how many people on average are in the office, how many days a week is that office open and are there any changes in the number of personal on the horizon so that we can make recommendation on commercial ice machines that can adjust for company growth.

Commercial Ice Machines For Hospitals

Because ice is essential in the health care industry for uses such as reducing swelling or even keeping patients hydrated it goes without saying that hospitals cannot go without it. Capital Equipment works with many hospitals and health car facilities to help make sure their patients and staff have ice when they need it most. We also understand that any commercial ice machines in a health care environment will need to be cleaned and maintained regularly in order to maintain a hospitals’ strict hygiene status and our service department customizes our maintenance schedules and procedures to align with the health care facilities’ guidelines we work with we work with.

Commercial Ice Machines For Hotels

Just like most businesses that were shut down earlier this year due to COVID-19, hotels are slowly beginning to reopen and welcome back guests in the Kansas City area which means ice machines will be in high demand. The difference with hotel ice machines is that often times get more use depending on the number guests staying overnight which means they need to be ready to dispense an enormous amount of ice on any given day. Capital Equipment works directly with hotel managers to determine the most efficient commercial ice machines to install for their guest to make sure that their ice bins are never empty even on the busiest of nights. We also provide routine maintenance and cleaning as ice machines are a highly touched area in a hotels and in the age of COVID-19 need to be cleaned and sanitized more regularly.
