Commercial ice machines have advanced since John Gorrie first created them in 1845. Despite the advancements in ice machine functions, the ice-making process has remained relatively unchanged since first designed. Easy Ice has managed over 20,000 ice machines and counting. We understand how ice makers work – and how to keep them running well. Here is a high-level explanation of how an ice maker works.

Both these types of machines operate differently and are best suited for specific environments. In this article, we discuss the difference between these two systems and which you should choose for your establishment.
