When you are considering buying an ice machine some of the things to consider:
— Do you have enough space? You will need space not only for the ice machine, bin and water filter but room around the machine for air to flow in to the ice machine as well as exhaust from the ice machine.
— Do you have the required utilities? Within 6' of the ice machine you will need an electric supply with the proper voltage, a floor drain and a water source with a water shutoff valve.
— What size ice machine do you need for your application? Will this be enough ice during peak usage? Do you have plans to grow? Below is an industry standard for ice usage per day.
