Service and Repair For Ice Machines During The Holidays

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.

The Importance of Cleaning and Sanitizing Commercial Ice Machines

ice-machine-cleaning-repair-service-in-Kansas-City

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.

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.

Ice bins are one of the most important components to keep clean and sanitized as they come in constant contact with human hands and other airborne objects that could contain bacteria and contaminate the ice.

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.
