Scotsman Prodigy Plus FS1222L-1 flake ice maker — up to 1180 lb/24hr, remote low-side, stainless steel, AutoAlert, one-touch cleaning, 

What our Experts Think

• High‑capacity flake ice production
  The Scotsman Prodigy Plus FS1222L‑1 delivers up to 1,180 lbs of flake ice per 24 hours (1,000 lbs AHRI certified), making it ideal for restaurants, hospitals, large kitchens, catering, and hospitality operations that need a consistent, large ice supply.

• Remote‑cooled design for cooler, quieter spaces
  With its remote low‑side refrigeration system, heat and noise are shifted away from the kitchen floor, improving working conditions and reducing HVAC load in busy environments.

• Durable, sanitary construction
  Features stainless steel evaporator, auger, and exterior, plus AgION™ antimicrobial protection that helps slow microbial growth and supports foodservice sanitation standards.

• Smart maintenance and diagnostics
  AutoAlert™ indicator lights and a unit‑specific QR code link operators quickly to manuals, service support, and warranty information—streamlining troubleshooting and routine care.

• Reliable, low‑effort operation
  Maintenance‑free sealed bearings and one‑touch cleaning reduce downtime and service needs, while robust engineering handles continuous high‑volume workloads.

• Ideal for demanding commercial use
  Compact at 22″ W × 24″ D × 27″ H and engineered for long service life, it fits into diverse kitchen layouts and keeps production steady under heavy use

Maintenance Tips

• Regular Cleaning & Sanitizing
  Clean and sanitize the ice bin, evaporator, and internal surfaces every 3–6 months to prevent scale, bacteria, and unpleasant odors.

• Descale the Water System
  Run an approved descaling solution through the water system at least every 3–6 months to remove mineral buildup and maintain ice production efficiency.

• Clean Air Filters Monthly
  Remove and wash or vacuum the air filter monthly (or more often in dusty environments) to maintain proper airflow and condenser efficiency.

• Check Water Filters
  Replace water filter cartridges every 6 months or when water flow decreases to ensure clean, clear ice.

• Inspect Condenser & Coils
  Keep condenser coils and surrounding areas free of dust and debris to improve cooling performance.

• Monitor Sensors & Components
  Keep photo‑eye sensors and internal mechanisms free of scale and residue to ensure accurate ice production cycles.

• Annual Professional Service
  Have a qualified technician inspect refrigeration components, fan motors, electrical connections, and belts annually to prevent downtime.
