One item that should always be in your company’s preventative maintenance list is its ice machine. Many business owners fail to acknowledge the fact that just because these devices are operational, does not mean they can be left unattended for long periods. Ice machines are a very important asset for a wide array of businesses ranging from nursing homes to restaurants to hospitals yet are too often neglected until something goes wrong.
If your facility is equipped with one, it is important to establish a routine cleaning and maintenance plan up front, and to stick to it! Aside from protecting your investment and ensuring that expensive equipment runs optimally for years to come, you can rest assured knowing your customers will always be served safe and clean food products.
