If the Christmas party season were any closer Jack Frost would be biting us on the nose. So we want to let you in on a little secret well ahead of time – Ice Machines are the grinch of the hospitality industry. True story! These essential pieces of equipment make up the majority of service calls during the festive months and leave businesses in pandemonium.
But don’t cry into your Christmosas just yet, there’s plenty you can do before you’re losing your cool four-deep at the bar.
Patrick Connolly, owner and engineer of Climarite explains: “from now until January we get countless calls from panicked customers because their ice machines have gone down or aren’t working efficiently enough to cope with the heavy usage around Christmas.
“More often than not the issues we’re dealing with could have been prevented with a bit basic maintenance. Business owners also have an obligation to meet health and hygiene standards, so it really does pay to keep this up as a regular practice.”
So, while the smart ones in the industry will already have their sleeves rolled up and be getting stuck into the pre-party preparation, the very shrewd ones will be paying particular attention to their trusty ice machines.
We have put together some pointers for keeping equipment in tiptop condition – it won’t cost you a penny but could save you plenty. Plus, you can’t put a price on a stress-free Christmas!
