SCOPE / 01
What you can discuss with us about ice machine disassembly and cleaning
We define the scope of ice machine disassembly and cleaning based on the items below. The specialists and confirmation procedures required vary depending on the condition of the equipment and the facility.
- We will ask for the ice machine’s manufacturer, model number, and installation location to determine the scope of disassembly and cleaning.
- We inspect the interior, ice storage compartment, filter, water supply and drainage areas, underneath the equipment, and surrounding floor, based on the symptoms.
- After cleaning, we document the condition with photos and report areas prone to recurring issues and when the next service may be due.
- If the work involves drain pipes, kitchen floors, or pest control, these can also be included in the estimate.

BEFORE ESTIMATE / 03
Information to Share Before Requesting an Estimate
The materials needed, such as an on-site inspection, photos, or equipment information, depend on the equipment and issues involved in ice machine disassembly and cleaning. We will advise you about anything you are unsure of after the initial consultation.
- Photos of the ice machine; manufacturer; model number; quantity; installation location; and symptoms such as slime, odors, dark stains, drainage problems, or unusual noises
- Location and number or quantity of the relevant stores and equipment (to the extent known)
- Symptoms or conditions of concern and when they began
Disassembling or repairing equipment, work on building-side piping, and the collection, transport, or disposal of sludge, waste oil, and other materials may be separate from cleaning. When requesting an estimate, confirm the areas covered, how collected materials will be handled, and the facility’s hygiene and safety rules.
