Maintenance Tips
-
Clean Regularly: Wipe down the exterior and interior with mild soap and warm water to prevent buildup of dust, dirt, and contaminants.
-
Sanitize the Ice Maker: Use a commercial ice machine cleaner every 6 months or as needed to remove scale and bacterial growth, keeping ice production sanitary.
-
Clean the Condenser: Regularly inspect and clean the water-cooled condenser to ensure optimal cooling efficiency and prevent overheating.
-
Check Water Filter: Replace or clean the water filter as required to ensure the ice produced remains clean and free from contaminants.
-
Monitor Ice Production: Ensure the ice maker is producing ice at an efficient rate. Slow production may indicate clogging or a need for maintenance.
-
Defrost as Needed: Periodically check for ice buildup inside the unit and defrost to ensure proper operation.
-
Inspect Drain Lines: Regularly check drain lines for blockages to ensure proper water flow and to prevent leaks or water pooling.
