Matching Ice Type to Your Business
Before you compare dozens of ice machines for sale, lock in your ice format:
- Cube — restaurants, bars, hotels, banquet service
- Nugget — hospitals, therapy centers, convenience stores
- Flake — fish markets, grocery seafood counters, research labs
- Cubelet — office break rooms, quick-serve beverage stations
Self-Contained vs Modular — Quick Decision
Self-contained = ice maker + bin in one cabinet. Plug in, connect water and drain, go. Good for bars, cafes, and small restaurants. Example: Manitowoc UDP0310W NEO Undercounter.
Modular = ice head mounts on a separate bin or dispenser. Scales to 3,000+ lbs/day. Good for hotels, large restaurants, and catering operations. Example: Manitowoc IYT1200W.
