Professional Ice Machine Care

Professional Ice Machine Cleaning & Sanitization

The FDA treats ice as food. We eliminate mold, slime, and biofilm from bins, evaporators, and water lines so every cube is safe, clear, and inspection-ready.

Why operators call us

Safe ice, compliant equipment

We go beyond wipe-downs—fully disassembling, descaling, sanitizing, and documenting every component so your machine passes any inspection.

Food-safe sanitization

EPA-registered, FDA-compliant sanitizers eliminate mold, slime, and bacteria so every cube served is safe.

Full-system disassembly

Bins, evaporator plates, water distribution, and dispensers are taken apart, descaled, and sanitized—no surface-only wipe-downs.

Biofilm and scale removal

We treat water lines, evaporator plates, and drain paths to eliminate biofilm and mineral buildup that ruin taste and production.

Inspector-proof documentation

Before/after photos and compliance certificates accompany every job so you pass re-inspections without stress.

Cleaning process

Four steps to food-safe ice

Disassemble, descale, sanitize, and document—every time, every component, every inspection.

Shutdown and disassembly

We power down safely, remove all ice, and disassemble bins, evaporators, and water distribution components while documenting conditions.

Deep cleaning and descaling

Food-safe descalers strip mineral deposits, and every component is scrubbed to eliminate mold and bacteria.

Sanitization and biofilm treatment

EPA-registered sanitizers treat all surfaces and water lines. Condenser coils are cleaned and bins are fully sanitized.

Reassembly, testing, and documentation

Systems are rebuilt, production and flow are tested, and you receive photos plus FDA compliance paperwork.

Recommended frequency

Set the sanitization schedule that keeps you compliant

We’ll build a plan around your volume and regulatory requirements so inspectors never catch you off guard.

Restaurants & bars

Quarterly

High-volume ice use and FDA ice-as-food requirements demand consistent sanitizing.

Hotels & hospitals

Quarterly

Guest and patient safety plus health codes require frequent cleanings.

Healthcare facilities

Every 2 months

Immunocompromised patients need the strictest contamination control.

Schools & institutions

Semi-annually

Seasonal deep cleaning keeps moderate-use systems compliant and safe.

FAQ

Everything operators ask us

We wipe down our ice machine daily. Do we still need professional cleaning?

Yes. Daily wiping can’t reach mold in evaporators, biofilm in water lines, or scale on ice-making components where contamination grows.

How long does ice machine cleaning take?

Most machines take 2–4 hours depending on size and contamination level. We schedule during closed hours so production resumes before you open.

Do you provide documentation for health inspections?

Absolutely. Every service includes before/after photos, FDA compliance certification, and paperwork for health departments.

What happens if we don’t clean regularly?

You serve contaminated ice, risk shutdowns, lose efficiency, and can damage equipment from mineral buildup and biofilm.
