Maintaining Ice Machines With Manitowoc Cleaning Products

Routine Manitowoc ice machine maintenance helps remove mineral deposits and control microbial growth inside commercial ice makers. Manitowoc offers liquid sanitizer for routine sanitizing and accessories designed to automate portions of the cleaning process or inhibit microorganism growth between scheduled cleanings. When performing maintenance on Manitowoc machines, operators should follow the ice maker's maintenance instructions and use the appropriate chemical for each stage of the cleaning and sanitizing process.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Manitowoc's automatic cleanings work?

Manitowoc's automatic cleaning system can be installed on a nearby wall or on the machine itself. It dispenses cleaner or sanitizer approved for use with Manitowoc machines. The machine runs a wash cycle, completes multiple rinse cycles, and resumes ice production automatically when the process is finished.

How often can the Manitowoc automatic cleaning system run?

The Manitowoc automatic cleaning system can be programmed to run at half-, one-, two-, three-, four-, five-, or six-month intervals. Operators should select a frequency appropriate for the ice machine's operating conditions and follow manufacturer maintenance recommendations.

What does the Manitowoc LuminIce II growth inhibitor do?

LuminIce II uses special UV bulbs to create cold oxygen plasma. This process helps reduce bacteria and yeast growth without requiring added chemicals. For best results, operators should replace the UV bulb once per year.

Does LuminIce II replace regular Manitowoc ice machine cleaning?

LuminIce II is designed to inhibit microbial growth rather than remove mineral deposits or existing growth from ice machine components. Operators should continue following the manufacturer's cleaning and sanitizing requirements.
