The Koolaire Commercial Ice Machine by Manitowoc is designed to deliver dependable ice production, energy efficiency, and simple operation at an affordable price. Engineered by Manitowoc, this cube-style ice machine produces up to 440 lbs of full dice ice per day (345 lbs AHRI certified at 90°F air / 70°F water), making it ideal for restaurants, bars, hotels, and foodservice operations.
This unit features highly efficient electroless nickel-plated copper evaporators manufactured in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, ensuring durability and consistent ice production. The simple three-position control (ON/OFF/CLEAN) allows easy operation, while the one-touch cleaning system simplifies maintenance by allowing the machine to run the cleaning cycle automatically once sanitizer is added.
The Koolaire 440 lb Capacity Commercial Ice Machine is a high-performance cube-style ice maker designed to deliver reliable ice production for busy restaurants, bars, hotels, and beverage service environments. Developed and tested by Manitowoc engineers, Koolaire ice machines are built to provide dependable performance, efficient operation, and consistent ice output while remaining an affordable solution for commercial establishments. This machine is designed to meet the needs of operations that require a steady supply of full dice cube ice throughout the day.
This air-cooled ice machine can produce up to 440 pounds of ice every 24 hours under ideal conditions of 70°F air and 50°F water. Even when operating in warmer environments, it maintains strong performance with an AHRI-certified production capacity of 345 pounds per day at 90°F air and 70°F water. The unit produces full dice cubes, a versatile ice type known for its durability and slow melting properties. These cubes provide excellent cooling while minimizing drink dilution, making them ideal for soft drinks, cocktails, and other beverages commonly served in commercial settings.
At the core of the machine’s performance is a highly efficient electroless nickel-plated copper evaporator manufactured in Manitowoc, Wisconsin. This advanced evaporator design enhances ice production efficiency while also improving corrosion resistance and long-term durability. Combined with the air-cooled refrigeration system and self-contained condenser, the evaporator helps ensure consistent ice formation while maintaining efficient energy usage.
The machine is designed for simple and intuitive operation. A straightforward three-position control switch allows users to easily select ON, OFF, or CLEAN functions. This streamlined control system eliminates complicated programming and allows staff to quickly operate the machine even in fast-paced kitchen environments. The simple design also helps reduce operator error and makes day-to-day management of the machine easier.
The exterior features a modern stainless-like finish that resists smudges and fingerprints, helping maintain a clean and professional appearance in commercial kitchens or service areas. This durable exterior not only enhances the machine’s appearance but also protects it from daily wear and tear commonly experienced in foodservice environments.
Sanitation and maintenance are also key features of the Koolaire ice machine design. The food zone includes a front-facing evaporator that provides easy access for inspection and cleaning. This design helps staff quickly maintain the internal components without needing to disassemble large sections of the unit. The machine also includes a one-touch remedial cleaning cycle that simplifies routine maintenance. During this process, operators simply add the recommended cleaning chemical and allow the machine to perform the cleaning cycle automatically, eliminating the need to remove ice from the bin.
For more detailed cleaning procedures, all food zone components can be removed by hand without requiring tools. This allows staff to quickly disassemble and clean internal parts when needed. The interior is constructed with white plastic surfaces featuring smooth rounded corners and no exposed tubes or wires, making wipe-down cleaning faster and more efficient. The food zone is sealed from above and at the back of the door panel with commercial-grade rubber gaskets, helping protect the ice supply from outside contaminants.
To further enhance sanitation, selected components inside the machine incorporate AlphaSan antimicrobial protection. This antimicrobial agent helps inhibit the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms on treated surfaces within the food zone, helping maintain a cleaner ice-making environment.
Environmental responsibility is also considered in the design of this ice machine. It uses R410A refrigerant, which reduces global warming potential by approximately 48 percent compared to certain older refrigerants while still providing effective cooling performance.
The Koolaire 440 lb Capacity Commercial Ice Machine meets important industry standards and carries NSF, cULus, and CE certifications. These certifications confirm that the machine meets recognized safety and sanitation requirements for use in professional foodservice environments.
With its combination of dependable ice production, durable evaporator technology, easy-to-use controls, and sanitation-focused design, the Koolaire 440 lb Capacity Commercial Ice Machine offers a reliable and efficient solution for businesses that require a steady supply of full dice cube ice. Its user-friendly operation, efficient performance, and durable construction make it well suited for a wide range of commercial beverage and foodservice applications.
