Block plant is the slowest ice to make and the slowest to melt, which is why it survives in transport and fishing duty. On block ice machines in Killarney we see this fault regularly, usually alongside overdue descaling.

Ice Machine Installation normally resolves it. Typically one day for self-contained and modular plant; two to three with a remote condenser.

Sometimes — where the fault is a water-side problem the machine can often be run on reduced output until parts arrive. Where a compressor or leak is involved we advise buying in bagged ice while the repair is completed.
