When incoming water is 50 degrees Fahrenheit and ambient air is 70 degrees Fahrenheit, the Kold-Draft GT561AHK ice maker can produce 538 pounds of ice daily. It has refrigerant lines and an air-cooled condenser that uses air to lower the motor’s temperature. Constructed of 300 series stainless steel, this unit has a high percentage of nickel and resists rust. It creates half-cube ice, which provides great liquid displacement and is ideal for soft drinks. To create ice, the unit’s horizontal evaporator freezes sections individually to reduce the amount of minerals. This Kold-Draft GT561AHK ice machine can be stacked with a bin or dispenser to save space.
