Description
The Koolaire KDT0500W 30" full cube ice machine head is a high-performance solution designed for commercial kitchens and restaurants that demand reliable, large-scale ice production. With a 533 lb/24-hour capacity (420 lb AHRI-certified), this water-cooled ice maker ensures consistent, high-quality full cube ice for drinks, cocktails, and more. Its compact footprint (34" deep x 27.5" high) makes it ideal for tight spaces without sacrificing productivity. The Koolaire KDT0500W uses R410A refrigerant, a common choice in commercial refrigeration, and features a smudge-resistant exterior, making it easy to maintain in fast-paced environments. Whether you're outfitting a new restaurant or upgrading an existing setup, this ice machine head combines durability, efficiency, and commercial-grade performance to meet the demands of high-volume operations.
This model stands out for its water-cooled design, which reduces energy costs compared to air-cooled alternatives while maintaining optimal performance. The removable components—including the distribution tube, floats, pump, and trough—simplify cleaning and maintenance, ensuring your ice machine stays in top condition. The full cube ice (0.875" x 0.875" x 0.875") is perfect for bars, cafés, and dining establishments where clarity and consistency matter. Pair it with an ice bin or dispenser (sold separately) to complete your setup, though an ice deflector is required when using a bin. The Koolaire KDT0500W also comes with a robust warranty: 3 years on parts and labor, plus extended coverage for the evaporator and compressor, giving you peace of mind for your investment.
For restaurant owners and commercial kitchen managers, the Koolaire KDT0500W is a smart choice for balancing productivity, reliability, and ease of use. Its 115V/1-phase power requirement makes it versatile for various commercial setups, while its Better rating reflects its superior performance in real-world conditions. Whether you're serving craft cocktails, refreshing beverages, or maintaining a smooth operation, this ice machine head delivers the clarity, efficiency, and durability commercial kitchens need to stay ahead.
