ice-machine-KC-KCMO-Kansas-City-sales-rentals-St-Joseph

The holiday rush means different things to different people. For example, consumers tend to flock to malls and department stores to find the perfect holiday gift, whereas business owners often hire seasonal workers and extend shifts to keep up with demand.

Service, Repair, and Maintenance For Commercial Ice Machines in Kansas City

Warehouses, particularly those that deal in retail distribution, can sometimes run 24 hours a day during the holidays, which also means that demand for ice increases dramatically compared to the rest of the year. Hotels see an influx of holiday travelers from all corners of the county to see friends and family, which means that hotel ice dispensers will be working overtime and in heavy use. Unfortunately, hospitals and health care facilities are seeing an influx in traffic again this year, and ice is used in various ways to reduce fever, swelling and keep medical staff and patients hydrated.

At Captial Equipment, we understand that ice machines are more often than not an afterthought for businesses until they aren’t working correctly. This is why our service and repair technicians are all over the Kansas City metro this month, ensuring our customers’ ice equipment is the last thing they have to worry about during the holidays. We are fully licensed, insured, and factory-trained to work on all commercial ice machines and ice equipment for routine maintenance, cleaning/sanitizing, mechanical repairs and can assist with upgrades and/or replacement of ice machines.

Summer Heat and Ice Machines

commercial-ice-machine-dealer-rental-Kansas-City-MO

As the temperatures rise in the summertime, so too does the demand for ice which means your commercial ice machine(s) will be working overtime for the next few months.

Commercial Ice Machine Service and Repair in Kansas City

While there isn’t much you can do about the heat and humidity, there are some things you can do to make sure your ice is still cold and clean and more importantly your ice machines are running as efficient as possible even on the hottest of summer days.

Proper Ice Machine Maintenance:

Nothing will slow your ice machine(s) down like poor or lack of maintenance. Scale build up on evaporators or condensers will slow ice production to an absolute crawl and when combined with the heat of summer, could end up doing serious damage to the machine itself. Making sure that your commercial ice machines get regularly scheduled maintenance and cleaning will certainly help keep your ice bins full even on the hottest of days.

Ambient Room Temperature:

The higher the room temperature, the the harder your ice machine(s) will have to work to produce ice. Particularly in places like a busy restaurant kitchen, warehouses, and non-air conditioned areas, the ambient temperature of a room can heat up the water lines causing commercial ice machines to struggle or in some cases cease to make quality ice. High temperature areas also put an enormous amount of strain on compressors which could lead to costly repairs. Ideally, commercial ice machines should be put in an area that has good airflow if possible so that even if the air around it is warm, it can self cool through the air intake.

Adequate Spacing:

Most all commercial ice machines need adequate space around them to effectively self cool unless of course they are water cooled. Placing an ice machine near another appliance that generates heat will make it much more difficult to cool. Especially in restaurant kitchens where ovens and grills tend to generate an enormous amount of heat, commercial ice machines should be placed as far away from them as possible. Also making sure that the ice machines’ intake vents are cleaned regularly so that airflow is not restricted in any way will help keep ice production up.

If you’ve noticed your ice equipment is struggling this summer (or anytime) call the ice machines experts in Kansas City at Capital Equipment for professional service, repair and maintenance on all commercial ice makers. Call us today at (913) 683-8972 or CLICK HERE TO CONTACT US.

Commercial Ice Machine Installation, Cleaning and Service in Kansas City and Overland Park

commercial-ice-machine-cleaning-service-repair-Kansas-City — **Regularly cleaning and sanitizing the components of your commercial ice machines are an easy and obvious way keep quality ice in your bins.**

Ice is considered by the FDA to be a food which means that every business is required to follow specific guidelines set forth to keep it clean and more importantly keep the machines that make it clean and sanitized. If you think about it, most commercial ice machines require either someone to scoop out ice by hand or activate an ice dispenser using one’s hand which is clearly why keeping your ice machines clean is imperative especially now. Capital Equipment effectively and thoroughly cleans out ice bins and the internal components that could potentially harbor mold, mildew, scale buildup and germs or diseases that could be health risk to your staff and customers.

We are service certified with most major commercial ice machine brands which means we understand the manufacturers recommended cleaning processes and practice them accordingly. Our service technicians will clean and inspect water filters, ice bins, condensers, water lines, dispensers (if applicable, evaporators and other parts and components that come in contact with water and the ice. We’re also happy to provide tips to our customers on how to effectively clean the outside of the ice machines as more often than not, they come in contact with hands more than anywhere else on the equipment which can easily contaminate the ice inside. Some signs that you need to have your ice machine are:

Ice machine isn’t making any ice
Ice takes longer to make than usual
Ice has an odor
Ice machine is making incomplete cubes
Soft and/or milky looking ice
The ice machine won’t cycle to harvest mode

At Capital Equipment, we know that this is a very difficult time for many businesses especially in the hospitality and restaurant industry but we want you to know that we are here for all of your commercial ice needs.

Boil Orders and Ice Machines

commercial-ice-machine-service-repair-cleaning

We’ve all likely heard at one point or another about boil orders or boil advisories announced from our local health or water departments. But what exactly are they and what do businesses need to do to make sure their commercial ice machines aren’t making contaminated ice? Well, in simple terms, a boil order is typically issued when something has contaminated (or has potentially contaminated) a water line or water supply which could make anyone who ingests it sick.

Commercial Ice Machine Installation and Services in Kansas City

A boil order could be the result of a water line break or something more serious like a chemical spill or a natural disaster making the water (and anything made with it) unfit for human consumption. For businesses (and even homeowners) that use tap water for their ice maker, a boil order’s contaminated water can easily go overlooked when in reality there are steps that need to be taken before the ice equipment can be used safely again. That goes for commercial ice machines as well which means that if a boil order has been issued in your area and you have an active ice maker, the water filter(s) will need to be removed and replaced immediately before being used again. But it doesn’t end at just changing the water filters on ice machines because, depending on when the boil order was issued, contaminated water may have already been used to make ice or could still be trapped in the water lines.

This means that any ice already in the bin is a potential danger and any water between the filter and the ice machine needs to be cleared before it can be deemed safe for employees and customers. Capital Equipment’s service technicians can professionally clean and sanitize your entire ice machine including the water lines while replacing the filter in the event of a boil order in your area. At Capital Equipment, we help Kansas City area business owners with all of their commercial ice machine and ice equipment needs and water filters and routine cleaning and maintenance are a big part of the services we provide. With over 12 years of experience in the commercial ice equipment industry, our service technicians have pretty much seen it all and know exactly what to do when a boil order effects your area and how to more importantly get your making clean, safe ice. When a boil order does occur in your area or you need any type of service or cleaning for your commercial ice equipment, call Capital Equipment at (913) 683-8972 for professional, knowledgeable ice machine experts that provide a truly personalized service to business owners and businesses.
