Ice Machine Sanitising & Hygiene in Waterfall

Ice Machine Sanitising & Hygiene in Waterfall, Midrand & Centurion. Food-safe sanitising of evaporator, chute, bin and dispenser.

Ice is a food product, so the ice-contact path needs documented sanitising: evaporator, chute, deflector, bin liner, scoop holder and drain. Biofilm in the sump and chute is the usual finding behind off-taste ice and failed swabs.

The ice plant here is mostly estate clubhouses, guest houses, small restaurants and private bars, so the work is weighted towards undercounter and small modular machines. Midrand and Centurion sit on the route between the Johannesburg and Pretoria runs, so attendance windows here are usually the shortest available.

Where a site is on borehole or stored water, hardness and sediment shorten descaling intervals sharply, which is why we take a hardness reading before setting a maintenance schedule. 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.
