Manitowoc Commercial Ice Machine Repair

Manitowoc has the distinction of manufacturing the most popular ice machines in the country. The reason behind the brands popularity stems from the company’s ability to consistently design and manufacture commercial ice machines and ice makers that are:

• Reliable
• Easily installed
• Innovative
• High quality
• Energy efficient

The overall quality of Manitowoc ice machines is just one of the reasons the brand is loved by businesses all over the world. The other reason is flexibility. Manitowoc is the only manufacture of commercial ice makers in the world that truly grasps the concept that since not all businesses are the same, they can’t all get by with the same ice makers. In an attempt to provide all of their customers with the most perfect commercial ice machine possible, the company has created modular ice machines.

The Manitowoc modular ice machines are designed in such a way that allows Southern California business owners/managers to purchase the bin separately from the head, essentially enabling them to build a customized ice maker, which is important for business owners who are working with a limited amount of space. 

There are different types of Manitowoc modular ice machines available, including:  

• Commercial Manitowoc nugget ice machines
• Commercial Manitowoc cuber ice machines
• Commercial Manitowoc nugget ice machines

Another innovative Manitowoc design is their remote ice machine. Remote units are designed in such a way that the bulk of the unit can be placed in one room and the fan the ice maker uses can be placed outside. Why? The remote design accomplishes two things: it keeps the heat generated by the ice machine’s fan out of the room and it also means no one inside the building can hear the fan running.

Icemaker Repair

We have more than a few customers who claim that Manitowoc ice makers aren’t made the way they once were. That the company isn’t putting as much effort into creating solid designs or using as high quality parts as they once did. We don’t necessarily believe this. We think that the difference is that customers are putting more demands on their appliance, they appliance has more special features than the models that were made twenty or thirty years ago which means more things that can go wrong, and fewer business owners have the skills needed to properly maintain the appliance

Here are some of the reasons for common ice maker repair issues.

Leaking Commercial Icemakers

There’s a few things that can cause your icemaker to leak. The most common issue is a loose connection, something you can easily check and correct. Other reasons for a leak include a worn out valve or a clip that’s no longer working. Replacing the malfunctioning parts will correct the issue.

Most of the icemaker repair calls we receive involve leaking icemakers. The most common reason for a leak is that one of the hose connectors has worked itself loose. If tightening the connection doesn’t resolve the matter we’ll check out the clips and the water valve. If these show substantial signs of wear, they’ll get replaced and you can stop mopping up excess water.

Soft Ice or a Bin that’s Full of Water

Believe it or not, a bin full of water and soft ice isn’t usually the icemakers fault. In most cases, the room where the ice maker is kept is too warm. Lowering the ambient temp solves the issue perfectly. If it doesn’t we’ll take a look at the thermostat which probably needs to be replaced.

The Machines Running Slow

The first thing to check is the hose, which sometimes kinks and followed by making sure the water going into the unit hasn’t been turned down. The next step is looking inside the appliance and searching for blockages.

Small, Watery, or Tiny Ice Cubes

When ice machines create small or irregularly shaped ice cubes the problem is generally because it’s not getting sufficient water.
