Haunted by a Broken Ice Machine? Don’t Let Your Ice Machine Ghost You!

I

In the hospitality world, few things are as essential as the humble ice machine. Whether it’s chilling cocktails at a rooftop bar or keeping seafood fresh in a bustling hotel kitchen, commercial ice machines are the unsung heroes of guest satisfaction. But when they go down? That’s when the real horror begins. Cue the spooky music.

Imagine this: a guest checks into a hotel after a long day of travel. They head to the ice dispenser for a cold drink… and it’s bone dry. No explanation. No backup. Just a sad, empty bin. Or picture a restaurant on a busy Friday night. The bar’s packed, the fresh local oysters are flying—and suddenly, the ice machine sputters out. Drinks go warm, seafood goes questionable, and guests start complaining.

At Do-All Heating and Air, we specialize in commercial refrigeration—including ice machines for hotels, restaurants, and event venues. Whether it’s repair, replacement, or routine maintenance, we keep your cold chain intact and your guests smiling.

Because nothing should be spooky about your service—except maybe our ghost mascot. And remember, if you stay up to date on the maintenance and upkeep of your ice machine, you’ll have less ghosting and more cubing.
