Basics of flake ice

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

Ice extruded at sub zero temperatures and pressed is known as flake ice. The flake ice has low humidity content and super flake ice is even drier and obtained through an evaporation & ice breaking method. Both flake and super flake ice is used in labs, hospital theatres and any industry where hygiene is of paramount importance. Restaurants, supermarkets, fisheries and meat processing plants also make use of flake ice and its super compressed version, super flake ice to keep perishables fresh, cool, sterile etc. Some of the most remarkable fish and seafood displays in supermarkets can only be possible through the use of scale and flake ice.

What is done as part of the ice maker servicing?

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

When you bring your machine in for its annual ice maker servicing, we will descale and sanitize the machine with a special Scotsman solution which has specifically been formulated to safely remove rust, harmful bacteria, and scale build-up which will all influence the working of the machine if left. In addition as part of the ice maker servicing, we will clean the coil with a special chemical solution and then do the mechanical and refrigerant check. Finally the controls as well as wiring will be reset to the original factory specification and the machine tested. This ice maker servicing process is essential to reduce the long term costs of maintenance, ensuring that you have a hygienic machine that can operate at maximum capacity, and that the machine will run economically.
