Ice Machine Installation in Benoni

Ice Machine Installation in Benoni, East Rand. Supply and installation of commercial ice machines, bins and remote condensers.

Installation covers siting for condenser airflow and ambient, the potable water feed with filtration, a trapped gravity drain, electrical supply and commissioning against the rated output. Ambient and water temperature are the two figures that decide whether a machine ever meets its catalogue rating.

The installed base here runs from single undercounter bar machines through to modular hotel plant and flake counters, so the first job is establishing exactly what is installed and how hard it is worked. Ekurhuleni visits are grouped by area so restaurant and factory ice plant can be attended on the same run.

Water in this part of Gauteng is moderately hard, so scale on evaporator plates, spray bars and float valves is the single most common reason output drifts below the plate rating. Condenser clearance and kitchen extract have as much effect on daily output as the refrigeration charge, so both are checked before any sealed-system work is quoted.
