Common Questions About Manitowoc Undercounter Ice Machines

What benefits do Manitowoc undercounter ice machines have?

Manitowoc undercounter ice makers benefit businesses that need ice in limited spaces. Their stainless steel construction, low-profile design, and slide-up doors enhance durability and convenience. Manitowoc undercounter ice makers conserve labor and energy while providing a steady supply of ice ranging from 53 to 398 pounds daily. Bult-in bins store the ice, and some bins feature lighting for better visibility.

What features does the Manitowoc NEO® ice machine have?

The Manitowoc NEO ice machine is designed for undercounter placement and includes features that reduce energy use and labor, such as a delay function to pause production and a removable air filter on its front. Components with AlphaSan® antimicrobial agents slow bacteria growth between cleanings. Indicator lights alert the user when service is needed or when the bin is full, while the water trough, distribution tube, and damper door are all removable to simplify cleaning. NEO machines are available with air-cooled or water-cooled compressors, and ithey're self-contained for swift maintenance.

What types of ice do Manitowoc undercounter ice machines produce?

Manitowoc undercounter ice machines can produce various ice types, including flake, full cube, half cube, nugget, and gourmet. Flake ice is ideal for salad bars, chilling seafood, or making frozen beverages; however, it is not typically served in drinks unless in a healthcare setting, where it can be consumed safely without choking risks. Full-cube ice melts slowly, making them suitable cocktails and drinks where dilution is a concern. Half-cube ice melts faster, has a higher drink displacement, and is better for blending than full cubes. Nugget ice, also called Sonic ice, is chewable, absorbs drink flavors, and is popular for frozen cocktails and smoothies. Top hat cubes, or gourmet ice cubes, have a unique shape and are slow to melt. This type of ice is intended for serving high-end liquors and craft cocktails.

Do I need an air-cooled or water-cooled compressor?

Manitowoc undercounter ice machines are equipped with hermetically-sealed Tecumseh compressors, available in air- or water-cooled configurations. The type of compressor you need will depend on the utilities you can provide and the type of environment you install your Manitowoc undercounter ice maker in.

Air-cooled units operate similarly to refrigerators, cooling refrigerant by drawing cold air over the compressor. These units are easy to install and cost-effective to run, but their downside is they can increase ambient heat in the kitchen.

Water-cooled units run a constant supply of water over the compressor. These units require dual plumbing and can be costly to operate without a central cooling tower or another apparatus to connect to. Water-cooled units are a better fit for larger establishments with the infrastructure to support them.
