Where ice machines sit in Cook County: older housing stock, home bars with clear ice, mixed housing. [All of Chicago](https://icemachinerepair.center/locations/chicagoland/) ### Older housing stock Old commercial buildings turned into bars and restaurants often have a single aging supply serving the whole back of house, and an ice machine on it fills its trough short whenever the dish area draws water, which shows as small or partial sheets of cubes. ### Home bars with clear ice In a designed kitchen the ice machine often has its own water branch with an inline filter tucked behind a panel, and a cartridge left past its date slowly starves the water trough, so the filter's age is read before anything else. ### Mixed housing On a block where an old corner restaurant faces a new cafe, the older one may still run a modular head from decades back whose parts are getting scarce, while the new one runs an R-290 machine full of sensors, and each takes a different kind of repair. ## Where we go in Cook County. 20 cities and neighborhoods across Cook County, part of Chicago, 10 of them with a page on what that place does to an ice machine.
