Commercial undercounter ice makers are an excellent solution for operators looking to add or increase ice-making capabilities to their business in the most convenient way possible. You can get a lot of use out of limited space in your bar or restaurant with an undercounter ice machine. If you cannot accommodate a large freestanding ice maker in your facility, an undercounter ice machine is the next best thing.
Undercounter ice machines move the action from your prep and service area to beneath the counter, effectively freeing valuable countertop space for other kitchen tasks. With the right unit, you can produce large volumes of fresh, high-quality ice from a tiny commercial kitchen.
The lowdown on undercounter ice machines
Undercounter ice makers typically come in a single package. The condenser and the storage bin are both packed inside to make it easy and simply for you to set it up in your commercial kitchen in no time. With this convenient design, you can hit the ground running.
Despite the smaller footprint, you’ll be surprised at the range of capacities these commercial undercounter ice makers have. We have units that can produce as little as 50 pounds of ice every 24 hours to more than 400 pounds!
Undercounter ice machines can be used to support daily operations such as serving drinks, dispensing, and food display and preservation. These units can make ice cubes, both full-sized and half-sized, or flake ice and nugget ice. There's always an undercounter ice machine that will perfectly suit your business.
Just like other types of ice machines, undercounter ice machines come in both air-cooled and water-cooled refrigeration systems. While air-cooled undercounter ice machines are the most common, there may be some operations where a water-cooled undercounter ice maker would serve you best. Such facilities are those located in places where ambient temperature or a high presence of contaminants is difficult to control.
