Monthly – Remove & rinse the ice machine air filters. Rinse them gently with warm water. (Do not use a dishwasher).
Bi-annually – Clean the evaporator coils to optimize energy efficiency, and reduce your energy bill. Use compressed air or a hand-held vacuum to remove debris between the coils & fins.
