A 35kg ice maker keeps a restaurant or a mid-sized bar in ice across a full service: water on the tables, soft drinks, spirits and mixers. It is the size that covers that without stepping up to a modular machine.

Most machines at this output are self-contained and fit under a bench, though some sit on a separate bin. See under bench ice makers and modular ice makers.

These are the top FAQs for 35kg Ice Maker

Is 35kg enough for a restaurant?

For a restaurant serving water, soft drinks and spirits, usually. Function venues and cocktail bars burn through far more.

Compare with 50kg and 60kg machines.

Where does the ice get used?

Drinks first, then display and food handling. If seafood display or chilling is part of the job, count that separately; it uses a lot.

See seafood displays.

Will it still make the rated output in summer?

Expect less. Manufacturers quote production at a specified ambient and water temperature, and a hot kitchen or warm supply water cuts it. Sizing to the exact number leaves you short on the days you need ice most.

Give the condenser airflow and keep the machine away from cooking equipment.

What plumbing does an ice machine need?

A water supply, a drain and a filter. Water quality affects both ice clarity and machine life, and most manufacturers require filtration to keep the warranty valid.

Filters and fittings are in commercial ice machine accessories.

Is the bin included?

Self-contained machines include storage; modular heads do not and sit on a separate bin. Storage capacity is listed separately from daily output, and it is the figure that decides whether you run out during a rush.

See commercial ice storage bins and modular ice makers.

How noisy are ice machines?

They cycle and drop ice, which is audible in a quiet dining room. Keep them in the kitchen or back bar rather than near seating.

Ice is carried out in commercial ice caddies.
