Houston, TX - Water Filtration Services for All Restaurant Ice Machines

Whether you decide to purchase or lease ice machine equipment for a restaurant business, one thing is for certain, it must be properly maintained. In order to get the longest life out of the equipment and to get the best quality ice and the highest efficiency, regular maintenance is an absolute must. This includes regular cleaning of the equipment as well as making the necessary repairs as required.

Fixing Ice Machine Equipment

One benefit of leasing ice machine equipment is that, should problems occur or equipment break, the restaurant itself is not responsible for making the repairs.  The leasing company can take care of any necessary repairs to ensure ice machine equipment is working efficiently.  Whether an ice machine isn’t performing as it should or has stopped working altogether, the leasing company will fix ice machine equipment quickly so that it can produce large volumes of ice as needed once again.

Cleaning Ice Machine Equipment

The restaurant business is a busy industry, which can mean little things get overlooked in the process until something drastic happens, like equipment stops working altogether.  Taking a little time to pay attention to ice machine equipment can go a long way in maximizing its performance and preventing repairs.  Ice machines that are cleaned regularly will produce ice more quickly that is harder and in greater quantities than machines that aren’t regularly maintained.  To keep up with ice machine maintenance, clean it at least once a month.  Also, change the water filter every 6 months.  The evaporator, or plate that the ice forms on, should also be cleaned every 6 months.  Additionally, clean the condenser coils regularly and ensure the ice machine equipment is in a cool place to regular water temperature and increase efficiency.
