Sizing your ICE-O-Matic ICE Maker
•Does the existing ICE Maker meet peak usage during the hottest part of the year?
•What are the various locations or stations in the establishment that will need ICE? Will they be serviced from one or multiple ICE Makers?
•Planned for future growth? If not, consider building in 20% additional capacity on new installations.
