Overview

A 15 inch stainless steel clear ice maker with front-breathing cooling, an internal pump, and up to 45 pounds of daily ice production for tight commercial installs.

  • 15 inch width, front-breathing cooling system
  • Stainless steel wrapped sides for built-in or freestanding use
  • Insulated cold-protected storage bin
  • Ice scoop included

Who it's for
