  • Con: It's a dedicated flaker; not suitable if you also need cubed ice.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Old Harbour Crab Shack in Whitby needed to upgrade its ice machine. Their old unit was constantly struggling to keep up with the summer tourist trade, meaning their fresh catch displays weren't being kept at the optimal temperature by the afternoon.

"We rely on our displays looking top-notch from open to close. The Simag hasn't missed a beat since we installed it. The ice is consistent, and  the machine just keeps going, even on the busiest bank holidays. Our product has never looked better."

Robert Dawson – Proprietor

Since installing the Simag SPH120AS, The Old Harbour Crab Shack has eliminated mid-day ice shortages and  reported a 30% reduction in product discolouration on warm days.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Position the machine on a firm, level floor to ensure it runs smoothly and  drains correctly.
  • Ensure you have a mains water feed and  a suitable gravity-fed drain nearby.
  • It connects to a standard 13 amp socket, so there's no need for specialist electrical work.
  • Before the first use, run a full cleaning cycle as per the manual to sanitise the system.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe down the stainless steel exterior daily with a food-safe cleaner to maintain hygiene.
  • The front air filter should be removed and  cleaned with warm water once a month to ensure good airflow.
  • Check the water filter regularly to prevent limescale build-up, which can affect performance.
  • We recommend a full professional descaling and  service at least once a year to keep it in top condition.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Ice Machine

Not sure which ice machine is the perfect fit for your business? Here’s a quick rundown of what to keep in mind.

Output vs. Storage Bin

Daily output is what it can make in 24 hours; the bin is how much it holds. Make sure the bin size can handle your busiest two-hour rush.

The Right Ice for the Job

Flaked ice, like this machine produces, is perfect for displays and  blended cocktails. Cubed ice is the all-rounder for drinks. Choose based on your menu.

Air-Cooled or Water-Cooled?

Air-cooled units like this are common and  efficient but need good ventilation. Water-cooled models are great for hot kitchens but use more water and  can be pricier.

Measure Twice, Buy Once

Always check your dimensions and  access routes. A front-venting model like this offers fantastic flexibility for tight or built-in spaces.

Don't Forget Drainage

Most machines use a gravity drain, meaning the waste pipe must be lower than the machine's outlet. If not, you'll need a model with an internal drain pump.

Why a Front-Venting Design is a Space-Saving Masterstroke

Ever wondered why you have to leave a gap around fridges and  ice makers? Most machines draw in cool air and  expel hot air from the back or sides to stop the motor from overheating. A front-venting system, however, does all its 'breathing' from the front. Think of it like a modern combi boiler that can be neatly hidden away in a kitchen cupboard. This clever design means you can slide the Simag commercial flake ice maker snugly under a counter or right next to other equipment without worrying about it suffocating. It’s a simple feature that unlocks a huge amount of flexibility, especially in kitchens where every inch of floor space is prime real estate.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Fishmongers & Seafood Restaurants: This integral ice flaker machine is perfect for keeping fresh displays perfectly chilled and  looking pristine.
  • High-Volume Cocktail Bars: Ideal for crafting signature cocktails like juleps and  smashes that demand delicate, high-quality flaked ice.
  • Hotel Buffets & Event Caterers: Creates stunning chilled seafood platters, salad bars, and  beverage stations that impress guests.
  • Medical & Research Laboratories: Provides a consistent and  reliable source of flaked ice for preserving samples and  controlling temperatures.
