- It's been over 6 months since the last deep clean
How the Visit Works
Every ice machine call starts with a full diagnostic — water supply pressure, condenser condition (air or water cooled), evaporator plate, water pump, float and probes, refrigeration cycle pressures, and control board. Because most machines here run on hard Iowa water, I check the evaporator and water distribution for scale and inspect the water filter, since scale is behind a large share of thin, cloudy, or misshapen cubes. I also watch a full freeze and harvest cycle end to end: if the batch will not release, the cause is usually a scaled plate, a harvest assist or water valve problem, or a thermostat or control fault rather than the refrigeration side. Then you get a clear repair or cleaning plan with honest pricing before work begins.

Common Questions
How often should a commercial ice machine be cleaned?
Every 6 months minimum, more often in hard-water or heavy-use environments. Regular cleaning prevents scale buildup and keeps ice quality high.
What brands do you service?
Manitowoc, Hoshizaki, Scotsman, Ice-O-Matic, Follett, and other common commercial brands.
My ice is cloudy or off-tasting — what's wrong?
Usually scale buildup on the evaporator, a dirty water filter, or a bacteria/biofilm issue in the bin. A deep clean fixes most of it.
