Make sure you've always got plenty of fresh ice on hand with the Avantco Ice MC-H-530-A 30" air cooled modular half cube ice machine! Capable of producing up to 500 lb. of half cube ice per day, you'll always have plenty of ice to serve on demand at your restaurant, bar, or cafe. For ease of maintenance, a built in diagnostic system will identify problems that your ice machine may be having and will display the issue on the digital controller so it can be repaired accordingly. This easy-to-use controller can also be used to monitor the current stage of ice production that your machine is in. It allows you to adjust the bridge thickness up or down to maximize your harvest into individual cubes of ice, rather than full sheets. It also initiates the cleaning cycle and displays what stage of the cycle you're in.

Constructed of durable type 304 stainless steel with a polyethylene interior, this unit is built to last in the busiest commercial environments. A nickel plated evaporator and removable air filter make for quick and simple cleaning and maintenance. This ice machine also comes with pre-drilled holes on the back of the unit to mount your OceanLoch+ water filter to the machine to ensure you are serving the cleanest and freshest ice possible. Designed for side-breathing and rear exhaust, you can avoid hot air being blown outward into your kitchen or service area. This unit requires a 115V electrical connection for operation.

We bought this machine 2 years ago and it has stopped working; Error 03. After harvest, it drops the ice from the evaporator and stays on harvest mode. In order to get some ice from it, we have to turn it off after every harvest and back on again until we can figure our what to do with this machine. Poor workmanship.

Thank you for your review, Leonardo! Our Customer Solutions team has been in contact with you - if you have any further questions or concerns on this order, we are happy to assist!

Avantco makes great refrigeration equipment. I switched from rental to owning my very own ice machine at a reasonable price. They work great and i have yet to experience any problems with it. I own several of these machines and they are just great.

Have had several major problems with this unit. No longer under warranty and I can not get anyone to work on this unit. Constantly freezing up, stops producing and then shuts down. DO NOT BUY THIS UNIT.

We appreciate your review, Scott. Our Customer Solutions team will remain in contact with you about this.

Bought this machine, Worked fine for 2 1/2 years then started to make about 50% of what it used to. Now it is totally broken, Had someone look at it said it would be more expensive to fix it than it would be to buy a new one. This is a throwaway ice machine, very disappointed.

After just one year of use, the control panel failed after the warranty expired. Ice production barely reaches 250 lb (only 50% of the rated capacity). This is an unreliable product!

Bought this thing to top my soda fountain in my restaurant lobby. Just hooked it up and have nothing but regrets. The fan is unbearably loud. Like defending loud. There is a absolutely no way this would ever work in a restaurant. Even if I were to buy a bin and move it to back of house it would be too loud. $ wasted and I am sick to my stomach.

Although product work what it supposed to quality of build was not what I expected. You get what you pay for is old saying that describes this purchase. Outer shell is thin flexible steel compared to my older ice maker which had thick steel that had weight to it. Noise level is somewhat you have to get used to like jet taking off sound. Hopefully I get least half of what my other unit lasted 18 years and still works. Also during shipping something must have went through box that bent top of unit but I didn’t report since it would become blame game between shipping companies. Overall I made decision to save money to buy and I don’t regret it.
