Commercial Ice Manufacturing
Ice Production Made More Efficient
Guaranteed to Prevent and Remove Limescale Build-Up in your Condensers and Equipment.

The Problem
Equipment Failure and Maintenance Time Reduce Revenue
Hard water minerals in the source water coming into a manufactured ice facility are at the heart of equipment breakdowns and the requirement to take the ice production equipment off-line for maintenance and repairs.Ā Ā
When the equipment is āoff-lineā for maintenance and repair, ice production decreases and repair costs are incurred, with the ultimate result being a decrease in profitability.
In talking with our customers, the most prevalent issues which cause downtime and maintenance costs were:
- Head pressure increases
- Running temperatures get too high
- Failure of oārings on the pumps
- Heat exchangersā plates/tubes blocked due to scale build-up
When these problems occur, production slows or is stopped altogether while these critical components are chemically or manually cleaned of hard water mineral deposits. It all takes time, money and labour to remedy the problems and resume production.

Our Solution
The Integroā¢ Solution
The Integroā¢ is a comprehensive solution to preventing and removing hard water mineral deposits in critical ice manufacturing equipment. It is unparalleled in how it works.
It is the only solution that does not require the use of chemicals of any type to descale the equipment nor does it require management and staff time to maintain the Integroā¢ equipment. It is completely chemical and maintenance free.
The Integroā¢ technology effectively prevents and removes hard water scale deposits by disrupting the bonding which otherwise naturally occurs between various scale causing minerals such as calcium and magnesium.Ā Ā
These and other minerals remain in their single, neutral ionic state and simply flow through the water system. They will not precipitate out of the water solution to form the scale crystals which foul the ice making equipment.

What Youāll Get:
Improve Ice Production Time
Improve ice production time is the greatest benefit of using the Integroā¢ Technology. When ice production is halted to deal with equipment repairs, revenue obviously decreases.
The net effect in using the Integroā¢ system is improved operating efficiency, reduced down time, decreased scheduled maintenance and fewer repair costs. The greatest benefits of all, however, are fewer moments of frustration and greater profitability.
Here are key benefits realised by manufactured ice companies when the Integroā¢ system is installed:
- Improve ice production
- Running temperatures improved significantly.
- Head pressure kept within normal operating range; No slow down in production.
- Compressors not run as hard.
- No descaling required of condenser tubes.
- Any existing scale in condenser tubes cleaned out without manual honing.
- Seals on pumps preserved since no descaling chemicals need to be used.
