An ice maker (or ice machine) is an appliance that automatically produces ice, available in various types like countertop, under-counter, or built-in, for home or commercial use, creating different ice shapes such as cubes, crescent, or nugget (pellet) ice, with features like self-cleaning and varying capacities for convenience and specialized drink needs
Types of Ice Makers
Countertop: Compact, portable units for home kitchens, dorms, or offices, producing ice quickly.
Undercounter/Built-in: Integrated into cabinetry for a seamless look, often requiring plumbing and drainage.
Commercial: Large, high-capacity machines for restaurants, bars, and healthcare, producing specific ice types.
Common Ice Types
Cube: Standard, solid ice cubes, great for general use.
Nugget (Pebble/Sonic): Soft, chewable, and flavor-absorbing, popular for cocktails and sodas.
Crescent (Half-Moon): Slow-melting, reducing splash in drinks.
Flake/Shaved: Fine, soft ice used in medical or food service.
Key Features & Considerations
Ice Production: Measured in pounds per day (lbs/day).
Storage: Built-in bins hold ice, but usually aren’t freezers; some commercial models have large storage bins.
Cleaning: Self-cleaning functions simplify maintenance.
Plumbing: Some units connect to water lines, while others use a reservoir.
Energy: Look for Energy Star ratings for efficiency.
