What Upper West Side does
to an ice machine.

A cable that burned out inside a transformer on West End Avenue on July 13, 2019 darkened blocks from the 40s up to 72nd Street for roughly three hours, and Con Edison put the count near 73,000 customers.

Central Park's normal July high is 84.9°F, based on the 1991 to 2020 averages.

A city sanitary inspection scoring 0 to 13 points earns a restaurant an A, and no fines are issued for violations found in an inspection that ends in an A.

Tower living

Many newer ice machines charged with R-290 sit in small tower pantries and lounges, and a hiss or a gas smell there means no switches and no flame: open the door, leave the room and call 911 if the smell is strong.

Small cafes and back bars

Behind a narrow bar the undercounter ice machine is boxed in by coolers and a sink, and an air-cooled unit forced to breathe its own warm exhaust runs long cycles and drops thin cubes, so the clearance at its front grille is checked before the sealed system.

Older housing stock

Older wiring may put an ice machine's compressor on a circuit shared with other bar equipment, and a breaker that trips each time the harvest starts is left off and reported rather than reset again and again; at a burning smell, switch the breaker off.

When an ice machine
cannot wait in Upper West Side.

In Upper West Side as anywhere, these four call for the ice machine to be shut down and left that way for our visit: water spreading from it or its drain across a walkway or toward an outlet, a burning or hot electrical smell, a breaker that trips when it starts, or a hiss or gas smell at a machine charged with flammable R-290.

A stainless modular ice machine head sitting on a wide stainless ice bin in a tiled restaurant back room, a sheet of clear water spreading from under the ice machine bin across the red quarry tile toward a wall outlet with a plugged-in cord, a few loose ice cubes melting in the puddle.

Ice Machine Leaking Water Across the Floor or Under the Bin

6 causes, cheapest first

 A stainless undercounter ice machine built in under a dark wooden bar counter, its door closed and its lower front grille showing a faint gray haze drifting out into the dim bar, bottles on the back shelf out of focus, the empty bar stools pushed in. Clear the area first

Burning or Hot Electrical Smell From an Ice Machine

6 causes, cheapest first

 A gray electrical panel on a painted wall in a restaurant back corridor, one breaker switched to the middle tripped position, and through the open doorway beyond it a stainless modular ice machine on its bin standing dark and silent, a plastic ice scoop resting on the bin lid. Clear the area first

Ice Machine Tripping the Breaker or Blowing a Fuse

6 causes, cheapest first

 An empty bar storeroom with its back door propped wide open to a bright alley, a stainless self-contained ice machine standing against the far wall with its bin door closed, cases of glassware on steel shelving, daylight and fresh air pouring in. Clear the area first
