Commercial Ice Makers, Restaurant Ice Machines For Sale

What is an ice machine or ice maker?

Ice Machines, Equip your bar, restaurant, or hotel with a commercial ice maker. Choose from air or water cooled units to find the perfect ice machine for your needs.

Ice is a commodity that many people and businesses use in their everyday activities. Not many people stop to consider the source unless they find themselves without. If you have a large family, love to entertain, or own your own business, you must consider the benefits of owning your own ice maker. Whether your needs or residential or commercial, an ice maker or ice machine is a reliable source for everyday ice use.

An icemaker, ice generator, or ice machine may refer to either a consumer device for making ice, found inside a home freezer; a stand-alone appliance for making ice, or an industrial machine for making ice on a large scale. The term "ice machine" usually refers to the stand-alone appliance.

The ice generator is the part of the ice machine that actually produces the ice. This would include the evaporator and any associated drives/controls/subframe that are directly involved with making and ejecting the ice into storage. When most people refer to an ice generator, they mean this ice-making subsystem alone, minus refrigeration.

An ice machine, however, particularly if described as 'packaged', would typically be a complete machine including refrigeration, controls, and dispenser, requiring only connection to power and water supplies.

The term icemaker is more ambiguous, with some manufacturers describing their packaged ice machine as an icemaker, while others describe their generators in this way.

Industrial icemakers

Commercial ice makers improve the quality of ice by using moving water. The water is run down a high nickel content stainless steel evaporator. The surface must be below freezing. Saltwater requires lower temperatures to freeze and will last longer. Generally used to package seafood products. Air and undissolved solids will be washed away to such an extent that in horizontal evaporator machines the water has 98% of the solids removed, resulting in very hard, virtually pure, clear ice. In vertical evaporators the ice is softer, more so if there are actual individual cube cells. Commercial ice machines can make different sizes of ice like flakes, crushed, cube, octagon, and tube.

When the sheet of ice on the cold surface reaches the desired thickness, the sheet is slid down onto a grid of wires, where the sheet's weight causes it to be broken into the desired shapes, after which it falls into a storage bin.

How to choose an ice machine or ice maker?

When you’re shopping for a commercial ice machine, size matters. Consider how much space you have available for a new ice machine, freezer or refrigerator. If you’re working with a small amount of space, check out the selection of under-counter ice maker units.

Another important factor to consider is what you will essentially be using your equipment for. If you need a lot of storage space, choose from a selection of reach-in freezers and ice machines. If you’re running a restaurant or convenience store, you might benefit more from having a commercial countertop ice maker.

You must consider both the production and storage capacity when shopping for an ice maker. The production capacity is how much ice the machine can produce in a 24 hour period, while storage capacity is how much ice the unit can store at any given time. Many ice machines will suspend ice production once capacity is reached.

Whether your needs are large or small, consider how a residential ice maker or commercial ice machine can offer automated ice production, completely eliminating the hassle of finding a reliable source elsewhere.

Aside from size, there are other important factors you should consider as you shop for a commercial ice machine, such as:

· Capacity requirements

· Temperature needs

· Exterior texture

· Placement of the freezing coils

· Number of doors

Whether you’re looking for a one-door freezer for selling bags of ice, a freestanding ice maker, a large ice cube maker machine for a hotel or an under-the-counter unit for a restaurant, WebKitchenStore can help you find the machine you need with energy savings.
