Ice Machine Pros works on one thing: the ice machine your business depends on. We repair machines that have stopped making ice, deep clean and sanitize bins and evaporators, and keep them running on a maintenance plan for restaurants, bars, hotels and stores across the Savannah area.
Ice Machine Pros is a commercial ice machine service company based in Rincon, Georgia. We repair, clean, sanitize and maintain commercial ice machines for businesses in Rincon, Pooler, Savannah, Port Wentworth, Richmond Hill, Statesboro and nearby towns. We work on Hoshizaki, Manitowoc, Scotsman, Ice-O-Matic, Follett, Kold-Draft and U-Line machines, and ice machines are the only equipment we service. To schedule, call 912-656-7808.
Three services, one piece of equipment. You get someone who knows ice machines, instead of a general appliance or HVAC call.
When the machine runs but the bin stays empty, we find the cause and fix it, so the same problem does not return next month.
Ice is food, and a health inspector treats the machine that way. We descale and sanitize the whole water path, not just the bin.
A flat-rate plan puts cleaning on the calendar, so the machine is ready for inspection and for your busiest weekend.
Most service calls start with one of these. The cause listed is the usual one, and a visit confirms it.
| What you see | Usual cause | What fixes it |
|---|---|---|
| Machine runs, no ice | Water supply fault, failed inlet valve, or a refrigeration problem | Repair visit |
| Small, thin or hollow cubes | Scale on the evaporator or low water flow from a clogged filter | Descale and filter change |
| Ice slab will not release | Scale buildup or a harvest sensor or valve fault | Cleaning, then repair if needed |
| Pink or black slime in the bin | Biofilm, yeast or mold growth | Full clean and sanitize |
| Cloudy ice or an off taste | Dirty water path or an expired filter | Clean, sanitize and filter change |
| Water on the floor | Blocked drain, cracked line or an overflowing trough | Repair visit |
| Slow production in summer | Dirty condenser coil or a hot, crowded install location | Coil cleaning and airflow check |
| Machine shuts off with a fault code | Long freeze or harvest time, high temperature or a failed sensor | Repair visit |
Tell us the brand, the model if you have it, and what the machine is doing.
We check water supply, water quality, the freeze and harvest cycle and the electrical side in order.
You get the cause and the price before any repair or cleaning starts.
We do the work, test a full cycle and leave a written record of the visit.
Twice a year is the floor most manufacturers set. The room the machine sits in decides the rest. Coastal Georgia heat, humidity and hard water all push the schedule tighter.
| Where the machine is | Clean and sanitize | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Office, church, school, medical office | Every 6 months | Lighter use and clean air |
| Restaurant, hotel, convenience store | Every 4 to 6 months | Heavy use and kitchen grease in the air |
| Bar, brewery, bakery, pizza kitchen | Every 3 months | Airborne yeast feeds slime growth |
| Any site with hard or unfiltered water | Every 3 to 4 months | Scale builds faster on the evaporator |
Always follow the schedule in your machine's manual if it calls for more. Water filters are usually changed every six months, or sooner if flow drops.
Bars, breweries and bakeries need cleaning more often. Yeast in the air feeds slime growth inside the machine, so a twice-a-year schedule is rarely enough in those rooms.
Cube, half cube, crescent, nugget and flake machines. Air-cooled, water-cooled and remote condenser setups. Modular heads on bins, undercounter units, and ice and water dispensers.

Most manufacturers call for a full cleaning and sanitizing at least twice a year. Machines in bars, breweries, bakeries and other high-volume kitchens often need it every three months.
The usual causes are a water supply problem, a clogged filter, heavy scale on the evaporator, a failed water valve or pump, or a refrigeration fault. A service visit tests each in order to find the real cause.
It can be. Ice is treated as food, so slime or mold in the bin can be written up on an inspection. A full clean and sanitize removes it, and a regular schedule keeps it from coming back.
A full cleaning descales the evaporator, cleans and sanitizes the water trough, distribution tube, curtain, bin and chute, cleans the condenser coil and air filter, and replaces the water filter when it is due.
Many problems that look serious come from scale or a single worn part and cost far less to fix than a new machine. We tell you the cause and the repair price first, so you can compare it against replacement.
We service Hoshizaki, Manitowoc, Scotsman, Ice-O-Matic, Follett, Kold-Draft and U-Line machines, including cube, nugget and flake models with air-cooled, water-cooled or remote condensers.
Price depends on the machine and the problem. You get the cause and the price before any repair or cleaning starts, and maintenance plans are a flat rate quoted per machine.
No. We service commercial ice machines and standalone undercounter ice makers, not the ice makers built into household refrigerators.
