Kansas City’s Local Commercial Ice Machine Company

The big commercial ice machine dealers in Kansas City keep getting bigger, and based on what our customers have been telling us, their attention to detail and customer service is increasingly lacking, as one might expect. At Capital Equipment, we’re no strangers to competing against some of the titans in the commercial ice equipment industry, and, to us, it’s often easier to add customers because we truly offer customized services to the businesses and organizations that we partner with.

Commercial Ice Machine Sales, Leasing, and Rental Company in Kansas City

We don’t send out pushy salespeople that have nothing more on their minds than to make a sale and boost their commission. Instead, Capital Equipment’s owner visits each and every new business or organization that is considering partnering with us for their ice needs so that business owners and managers have an actual person and face they can go to when they need service, repairs, or upgrades to their ice machines. We make sure that the ice equipment we recommend will not only meet the business’ or organizations’ daily needs but also have the flexibility for days when ice is in higher demand, as commonly seen in the hot summer months. We are upfront about any service and/or maintenance fees so that there are no surprises or expenses that aren’t fully disclosed before the sale, lease, or rental terms are agreed upon. With outright commercial ice machine sales, we do offer service/maintenance agreements, but they are not included in the equipment cost. With ice machine leasing, the lessee is responsible for cleaning and routine maintenance during the lease term; however, any repairs needed during the lease period are provided by Capital Equipment. Our commercial ice machine rental program is all-inclusive, meaning cleaning, maintenance, and repairs are all covered in one monthly fee, which is advantageous for businesses and organizations that want worry-free ice equipment without having to budget for surprises.

If you’ve been less than impressed with the big multi-state commercial ice equipment companies, then maybe it’s time you looked at Kansas City’s locally owned and operated ice experts at Capital Equipment. Call us today for all of your ice and ice equipment needs at (913) 683-8972, or use the contact form below, and we’ll be in contact with you soon!

Commercial Ice Machines For Sale, Lease, or Rent in Kansas City

commercial-ice-machines-ice-makers-KC-KCMO-Kansas-City

At Capital Equipment, we work with business big and small throughout the greater Kansas City area and each one has unique commercial ice machine needs which is why we make sure that offer as many options as possible to the get the ice equipment they need so that restaurants, bars, warehouses, hotels, hospitals, offices, or any business owner can pick the one that suits them best.

Commercial Ice Equipment Dealers in the Kansas City Area

Buying commercial ice machines is certainly an option with Capital Equipment but in most cases the businesses we work with choose other options. The reason is that when you buy a commercial ice machine you may be saving in the broad scope of overall pricing but installation, routine maintenance, cleaning, service/repairs are not covered once the manufacturers’ warranty has expired. Of course, Capital Equipment can provide professional installation, service, and repairs but those come at additional costs to the business. Commercial ice machine rental or leasing is much more popular and more affordable particularly for small businesses in the Kansas City area in that there is one flat monthly fee and in the case of renting the ice equipment, service, cleaning, maintenance, and repairs are covered. This means ice machines that make hundreds of pounds of ice per day or even ice dispensers in a small office, for example, get routine cleaning and sanitizing as well as water filter changes and factory-trained checkups to ensure clean, clear ice regularly which is advantageous and keeps access to ice hassle-free for the business.

When leasing commercial ice machines or ice equipment, cleaning and maintenance responsibilities fall on the business owners however any repairs needed during the lease agreement period are covered by Capital Equipment. Unlike the big commercial ice machine dealers in Kansas City, you aren’t going to get a pushy salesperson that only cares about their commission but what you will get is factory-trained professionals that show you all of the options so that you can get the right ice equipment that fits your business’ needs. When you need to replace, upgrade, or add a commercial ice machine in the Kansas City area, Capital Equipment is ready to help with affordable and customized sales, leasing, and rental options that are tailored to you. Call us today at (913) -683-8972 or CLICK HERE FOR OUR ONLINE CONTACT FORM.

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.

Need To Upgrade Your Ice Machine(s)?

Like most commercial equipment, ice machines are an absolute essential for many businesses but since, in most cases, they run 24/7, they can wear out quick if not properly maintained and Capital Equipment is there when you need to upgrade or replace your ice equipment.

We are licensed and insured so that in the event that something should go wrong during the installation of your commercial ice machine(s), which is rare, you can rest assured that everything will be taken care of.

Many of the larger, national commercial ice equipment dealers have astronomically higher overhead than Capital Equipment and that means they will nickle and dime their customers for something that should be taken care of in a lease or rental agreement like changing water filter yet it costs businesses more money when they partner with them. With Capital Equipment, there are no games, gimmicks, or surprises when you work with us to replace or upgrade your commercial ice equipment. We are upfront and honest regarding pricing on the ice machines we provide as well as the costs for service, repairs, maintenance and cleaning.
