Water Limitations:
An ice machine is a food manufacturing plant; it
takes in a raw material, water, and turns it into a
food product, ice. The purity of the water is very
important in obtaining pure ice and in maximizing
product life. This section is not intended as a
complete resource for water questions, but it does
offer these general recommendations:
1. Filter the water used to make ice. That is the
water going to the “potable” water connection.
Water filters vary greatly in ability and function.
Install one that filters out suspended solids to a
dimension of 5 microns or smaller. The finer the
filter the better, but finer filters will clog sooner that
course ones. It may be necessary to add a course
filter ahead of the fine filter to prolong filter life.
2. Check with a water treatment specialist for a
water test, and recommendations regarding filters
and treatment.
Service Limitations:
There must be space
above, to at least one
side, to the back, and of
course the front for
service access.
