Manitowoc Ice Machine Not Working!

[@MrJujubean]

Ice machines were always my favorite systems to work on. I always laughed if most people ever seen the condition of ice machines in bars and restaurants they would order their drinks with out ice LOL

[@thesilentonevictor]

She is not bad Rick in fact that is one on the cleanest I have seen on KZbin factory brand new great job

[@wonderhomie2011]

This is HVAC/R gold! Ground and pound factory machines, iron fortified ice and bathroom washing techniques. Not your fault Rick, but I it was funny to watch. Nice job though.

Bang Bang Bang sounds like most restaurant kitchens LOL. A job is a job LOL

Dude 🤜🤛 Thank you so much! I just like sharing what I use to have problems with👍👍

Reminds me of our maintenance barn manitowoc. Barn doors and cracked windows less than 50 yards away from the dirt track. Ambient air anywhere from 35-95 degrees. The supply water line runs outside and has halfassed insulation. Only thing good about it is the ice is used is used to chill canned drinks or horses!

[@HVACRSurvival]

[@tbader20]

Pre-Indigo ice thickness probes can sometimes cause false harvests if there’s still some ice machine cleaner on it. I always use a mild detergent and warm water after I descale those. Thorough rinse and we’re good to go. Those old SY machines are just fine. I’ve installed a few of the new NXT machines, and the quality doesn’t seem all the way there. I don’t know about you, but so many of my service calls are no ice symptoms due to false Full Bin/ice damper catching on evaporator (on the dual units). I never had to deal with that on the SY machines.

[@gekkedirkie]

What a nice place for that machine. It will be an warm place when the sun is burning on that building. Happy guys when the machine is running

[@HVACRSurvival]

They said it was well utilized 👍👍

Good job Rick, can you fix the freezer too, it's kinda dirty, and the ventilation system, and anything else your good at, just kidding, I have to hassle you, because of your good attitude.

[@tbelding]

Those are the words I've learned to hate. "Oh, Wait! Before You Leave!" It's along with being grabbed by someone when you show up and they demand that you fix THEIR problem - which you had no clue about, you're not there for, and it's not part of your time budget. Then they throw hissy fits and will complain to the higher-ups that you didn't fix their problem - and of course, you're never believed because WHY would their employees lie like that.

defiantly needed them here.

[@FrozenHaxor]

I wonder why they need that big of an ice machine in that place, surely to put shafts into ice for interference fit bearing installation and such?

nice use of the eye wash station, aka. tablet station.🤣

[@HVACRSurvival]

The flip up protectors were left open in that environment, I think the tablet would have been the least of the problems

Came here to observe and learn. Got a machine for free and wanting to learn to troubleshoot.

[@HVACRSurvival]

Probably is, the company provided it.

[@timothydelgado4907]

How did you drain the water when you put chemical in?

[@HVACRSurvival]

The machine will cycle fresh water and dump the old chemical water over and over again. But sometimes I will pull the pan back out to help speed things up.

[@timothydelgado4907]

@@HVACRSurvival your talking about the pump dump pump dump when its in ice mode?

[@HVACRSurvival]

When it's in cleaning mode it does it over and over before it goes back to ice mode

So the moral of the story is kitchen ice machines dont clean up to well and ones located in a factory do???

All depends on the desire to get it clean

[@ericpaul4575]

A kitchen ice machine will make tons more ice than this machine. Less ice made means less buildup of minerals.
