Deionized water is not recommended.īecause water softeners exchange one mineral for another, softened water may not improve water conditions when used with ice machines. A reverse osmosis system should include post treatment to satisfy the R.O. This machine can be supplied with Reverse Osmosis water.

Some methods of water treatment for dissolved solids include reverse osmosis, and polyphosphate feeders. A water filter, if it is of the proper type, can remove taste and odors as well as particles. In general, it is always a good idea to filter the water. Directions for this may be found in the section under cleaning. To keep the machine operating properly, these impurities or minerals will have to be regularly dissolved by an acid cleaning, using Scotsman Ice Machine Scale Remover. Eventually, built up mineral scale can shorten machine life. Some impurities will inevitably remain, and will stick to the parts in the machine, and will cause malformed ice cubes. Between 1 and 3.5 pints of that rinses the reservoir and goes down the drain. Between 2 and 4 pints of water flow into the unit each cycle. The machine dilutes the concentration of minerals by over-filling the reservoir during the harvest cycle (with the excess water flowing down the drain). This concentrates most of the impurities in the ice machine water reservoir where they may form hard deposits known as scale. The reason for this is that anything dissolved in water lowers the water’s freezing temperature. Purer water will freeze first in the ice making molds. Ice made by this machine will have a lower mineral content than the water it was made from. Other impurities are chemically bonded to the water molecules, and cannot be filtered out, these are called dissolved solids. Some of the impurities are solid particles, these are known as suspended solids, and a fine particle filter will remove them.

Water absorbs impurities from the air as rain and/or as it flows through the ground. Īll water, including potable water supplied by municipalities, contains some impurities or minerals.
