These are some commonly asked questions from our customers about ACTIVE Ice Machine Cleaner. Please reach out to our customer service team if you don’t see your question listed here.
Yes! Every ice machine should be cleaned regularly to ensure the best possible performance and the cleanest tasting ice.
No matter how clean your water supply is, there are minerals and limescale that get deposited inside the machine. These contaminants can negatively affect the taste of your ice and the performance of your machine.
ACTIVE Ice Machine Cleaner is designed to work with any standalone ice maker units. This includes commercial, portable, built-in and countertop ice machines.
This cleaner is not compatible with built-in refrigerator ice machines.
No, this cleaner is only designed for use with dedicated ice machine appliances. It cannot be used with ice makers that are built-in to refrigerators or freezers.
For machines with average usage, we recommend cleaning your ice machine with ACTIVE once every two months.
Commercial ice makers or heavily used machines may require more frequent cleaning.
One bottle of our Ice Machine Cleaner contains 32oz of cleaning liquid. The amount of solution required for one cleaning session is 4oz.
A single bottle will last up to 16 months if you are cleaning your machine every other month.
Whether it’s a countertop ice maker at your home or a commercial ice machine at your restaurant, regular cleaning is a must.
If left unattended, it can lead to a host of problems, including the growth of contaminants, as well as mineral buildup.
These issues will not only affect the quality of your ice but can also pose potential health risks.
That’s why it’s so important to clean the ice machine regularly – ideally, once every six months. That will not only maintain your machine’s performance but will also extend its lifespan.
Cleaning the ice maker regularly helps ensure the health and safety of those who consume the ice.
For one thing, it helps prevent the accumulation of grime residue inside the machine, which can contaminate the ice and pose serious health risks.
Over time, mineral and limescale residue can build up inside the machine, affecting its functionality and reducing the quality of ice produced.
This is where ACTIVE Ice Machine Cleaner comes in.
It’s specially formulated to clean the internal components, prevent premature wear, and eliminate the build-up of mineral and limescale deposits that can otherwise hinder the machine’s efficiency.
ACTIVE Ice Machine Cleaner features a concentrated formula – one that’s capable of eliminating mineral and limescale residues from the internal areas.
Our cleaning solution is formulated with safe, lab-tested ingredients, including citric acid.
The ingredients have undergone extensive laboratory testing to ensure consumer safety, making it a safe option you can rest easy using.
Another major benefit is ACTIVE’s compatibility with various ice machines.
Whether you have a residential or commercial standalone ice machine, ACTIVE Ice Machine Cleaner is your go-to solution.
For example, you can use it to clean countertop ice machines, portable ice machines, built-in ice machines, and commercial ice machines.
The first thing that you want to do is prepare your ice maker. This involves emptying the machine, removing any remaining water or ice, and adding the cleaning solution.
Once your ice machine is prepared, it’s time to run a few cleaning cycles with ACTIVE.
Running these cycles is crucial when it comes to eliminating mineral and limescale residue from the internal components of your machine.
For the best results, run at least two cleaning cycles with ACTIVE.
Each cleaning cycle will range between 20-45 minutes, depending on the size and model of your ice machine.
After running the clean cycle, wipe down the interior surfaces of your ice maker.
This includes the tin-plated evaporators, the chilled water canister, and all surfaces of the ice machine like the ice bin and dispenser.
To properly clean these areas, follow these steps:
Remember, it’s always safer to power off the machine before wiping down the interior.
Regular maintenance will not only ensure optimal performance but will also extend the lifespan of your machine.
From changing the water filter to inspecting the interior for mineral buildup, there are several steps you can take to keep your ice machine in top shape.
Changing the filter regularly will ensure that you have clean, fresh water for ice production. Not only will it enhance the taste of the ice but it will also remove any impurities.
Generally speaking, it’s best to change the water filter in your ice maker once every six months, or as per the manufacturer’s recommendation.
Minerals such as calcium and magnesium present in water can accumulate over time, causing scale deposits on different parts of your ice machine.
By inspecting your machine regularly, you’ll be able to eliminate this buildup, ensuring optimal performance and longevity of your machine.
Regular cleanings with ACTIVE will not only ensure the production of fresh and clean-tasting ice but will also maintain sanitary conditions by eliminating harmful contaminants and scale build-up.
The frequency of cleaning can depend on various factors such as usage, water hardness, and environmental conditions.
As a general rule, however, it’s best to clean the ice maker with ACTIVE once every two months.
Certain issues may arise despite regular maintenance. These can range from low ice production and unpleasant-tasting ice to leaking water.
Whether it’s changing the filter, cleaning the machine with ACTIVE Ice Machine Cleaner, or simply adjusting the temperature settings, there are several ways to troubleshoot these common issues.
One common problem with ice makers is low ice production.
For example, it can be caused by dirty components. A clogged water filter can also contribute to the problem.
If the filter is clogged, it can impede water flow, resulting in a notable decrease in ice production.
In cases like that, it’s recommended that you inspect the filter and, if necessary, replace it to facilitate adequate water flow and maximize ice production.
Another common issue with ice machines is unpleasant tasting ice. This could be due to mineral buildup in the machine or a dirty filter.
Minerals like calcium and magnesium, which are naturally present in clean water, can also accumulate in the machine, causing the ice to have a metallic or disagreeable taste.
Not only that but a contaminated filter can also affect the taste of ice.
Leaking water is another issue that you might encounter with your ice machine.
This could indicate a loose connection or a damaged component inside the machine.
In cases like that, you’ll want to conduct a thorough inspection of the water lines.
Make sure there aren’t any loose connections and that everything is properly tightened.
ACTIVE Ice Machine Cleaner is the best option when it comes to cleaning ice makers.
Not only will it remove mineral and limescale deposits but it’ll also clean the internal components so that you will get refreshing ice every time.
You can use a 10:1 ratio of water to white vinegar instead of ice machine cleaner.
Keep in mind, however, that it won’t be as effective as a commercial cleaning solution and may leave a vinegar odor and taste in your machine.
ACTIVE Ice Machine Maker is highly effective at descaling ice machines.
Alternatively, you can clean the interior with warm soapy water or a baking soda solution, then rinse and dry the surfaces.
Ice maker cleaners are specially formulated solutions that are designed to remove hard water and mineral buildup from your ice machine.
We recommend cleaning your ice machine with ACTIVE once every two months. That will help maintain the machine’s performance and ensure clean ice production.

Avoid this for your tabletop ice machine! After over a year of perfect performance, my ice machine broke down within a week of using this cleaner. The gears stopped working and it caused internal damage. I can’t recommend this product!

The product claimed to work with home icemakers, but it didn’t work with mine. I followed the measurements and added the liquid, yet my machine indicated I needed more water. After multiple tries, it still didn’t work, while vinegar effectively cleaned it.

The ice machine descaling liquid works great on our hard water countertop ice maker. After using it, the ice cubes became much clearer. The 32-ounce bottle is in a protective casing to prevent spills and has clear measurement markings for convenience. The manufacturer recommends 4 ounces per cleaning, so this bottle will last for 8 cleanings, making it a great value.

These work effectively as promised. I ran two extra clean cycles after the initial one with the tablet to ensure thorough cleaning. I also found another use for these tablets: cleaning my glass electric kettle, which accumulates a stubborn film from hot water. By placing a tablet in the kettle with hot tap water and letting it sit for about an hour, I was able to clean the glass effectively. After washing the kettle with dish soap, I ran two boiling cycles to clear any residues and discarded the boiled water. I’m pleased with the results for both uses. However, the $20 price feels steep; a price around $15 or $16 would be more reasonable, so it doesn’t quite deserve 5 stars.

I have a two-year-old countertop ice machine that uses hard well water. It developed a musty odor, and despite using vinegar, citric acid, and hydrogen peroxide, the smell returned quickly. This product cleaned the ice maker effectively and eliminated the odorand I’m very impressed and recommend it!

I’ve tried many ice machine cleaners, but none compare to this one! After using it, I noticed a huge improvement in my ice quality – it looks pristine! This product effectively removes build-up and mineral deposits, leaving my ice maker spotless and producing crystal-clear ice cubes. Its ease of use sets it apart; the instructions were simple, and results were apparent immediately. I’m amazed at how fresh and clean my ice looks now. If you’re looking for a cleaner that delivers on its promises, I highly recommend this one. It’s the best cleaner I’ve ever used, and my ice machine has never looked better!

before discovering this ice machine cleaner, my brand-new nugget ice machine had an awful plastic taste that vinegar simply couldnt eliminate. It was unbearable, and I was nearly ready to give up. However, after just one application of this cleaner, the improvement was astonishing…my ice is now crystal clear and completely tasteless, just as it should be! I was so impressed that I brought it to work to clean our company’s ice machine, which had never been cleaned before. I wasn’t sure it could handle the task, but it did…yielding fantastic results. This product is a complete game-changer for anyone who enjoys fresh, clean-tasting ice. If your ice machine needs a refresh, this is the solution to try. Highly recommend!

I went from cloudy, smelly ice to perfect, restaurant-quality cubes in under an hour. I wish I’d started using these tablets sooner.

We thought we’d give them a go…didn’t clean effectively. Vinegar does the job just as well
