A Broken (or Dirty) Ice Machine Is a
Business Problem, Not Just a Repair

For a restaurant, bar, or catering hall, a down or dirty ice machine isn't a minor inconvenience — it's lost drink sales on a Friday night, a failed health inspection, or a customer getting sick from contaminated ice. The FDA classifies ice as a food, which means it's held to the same sanitary standard as anything else you serve. Around the Clock Refrigeration keeps commercial ice machines running clean and reliable, with fast repair response and maintenance contracts built to catch problems before they turn into a closure — or a citation.

Repair, Cleaning & Maintenance — Covered

Ice Machine Repair

Same/next-day diagnosis and repair for machines that have stopped producing, are making slush or off-flavor ice, are leaking, or are running loud or warm.

Cleaning & Descaling

Mineral scale and biofilm buildup are the leading cause of both ice machine breakdowns and health-code issues. Scheduled cleanings protect output, ice quality, and machine life.

Maintenance Contracts

Scheduled visits, priority emergency dispatch, and discounted repairs — so failures become rare instead of routine.

Why Regular Maintenance Protects More Than the Machine

Ice is legally a food product — the FDA holds it to the same sanitary standard as anything on your menu, and health inspectors check ice machines accordingly. The violations they cite most often aren't mechanical, they're biological, and the uncomfortable part is that a machine can develop them while still producing ice normally, so it can fail inspection — or make someone sick — while looking completely fine from the outside. What inspectors typically look for:

Pink or black slime (mold and biofilm) in the ice bin or dispensing chute
Scale buildup that can shelter bacteria like E. coli, Salmonella, and Legionella
Standing water from a clogged or failing drain
Uncovered bins or scoops stored improperly inside the ice

Manufacturers generally call for a full internal cleaning and sanitization at least every 6 months — more often for high-volume bars and restaurants — which is exactly the cadence built into the Priority Care and Full-Service plans below: scheduled cleaning before scale and biofilm have a chance to build up, not just a repair after something's already gone wrong.

Ice Machine Service FAQ

Most manufacturers recommend cleaning and descaling every 6 months, more often in hard-water areas or high-volume settings like bars and restaurants. A maintenance contract keeps this on schedule automatically instead of relying on someone to remember.
Yes. The FDA classifies ice as a food, so health inspectors evaluate ice machines the same way they evaluate anything else you serve. The most common citations are mold or biofilm ("pink slime") in the bin, scale buildup, standing water, and improperly stored scoops — a machine can have all of these while still producing ice normally, which is exactly what scheduled cleaning is meant to catch before an inspector does.
It depends on the plan — from one annual cleaning up to quarterly cleanings, priority emergency dispatch, and discounted or included repairs. See the plans above, or request a quote for a custom plan covering multiple machines or locations.
Yes — Manitowoc, Hoshizaki, Scotsman, and most other major commercial brands.
Same-day response is standard, and maintenance contract customers get priority dispatch ahead of non-contract calls.
Yes — our Full-Service Contract plan is built for multi-unit facilities with several machines or locations under one agreement.
