Self-contained ice machines are comprised of the ice machine itself and the ice bin. They are ideal for under-counter installations in smaller spaces.
Air-cooled ice machines are the most used type of ice machine throughout the United States. These ice machines “inhale” the surrounding air and use it to regulate the temperature of the refrigeration system and require a separate bin to function properly.
A remote ice machine is a specialized type of air-cooled ice machine that includes extended refrigerant lines. These extended refrigerant lines enable you to isolate the heat and noise produced by the condenser.
Water-cooled ice machines use water to absorb the heat that the machine produces when in use. These ice machines can be placed almost anywhere making them a great choice for outdoor installations or other environments lacking temperature control.
Making sure that your ice machine is properly serviced helps ensure the vitality of your business while providing the quality assurance your customers deserve. And depending on your industry, it may also be a legal requirement since the FDA classifies ice as a food. The maintenance guidelines for your specific ice machine installation are sometimes determined by the manufacturer; however, descaling and sanitization should be completed at least once every six months to keep customers safe from potential health risks and to ensure the machine’s functionality.
At Total Mechanical Systems, we know and adhere to each manufacturer’s proscribed maintenance plan. We’ll remind you when your ice maker is due for routine maintenance and will work around your schedule to keep it running smoothly.
Unfortunately, the manufacturer defined maintenance plan doesn’t account for unforeseen issues with your ice machine installation. That’s why our team of refrigeration experts is on-call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Whether a specific part needs to be repaired or its internal components require a complete descaling, Total Mechanical Systems will be onsite to ensure your ice machine is up and running the same day you report the issue.
We pride ourselves in being one of the only factory authorized warranty service providers on Long Island for America’s top ice machine manufacturers. Total Mechanical Systems serves customers from Montauk to Manhasset and everything in between.
