Ice Machine Sanitation
Enhanced sanitation solutions made simple
Sanitation by design. It’s not a reaction. It’s not a fad. It’s what Manitowoc has built into every ice machine for decades. From the color of the plastics we use (white to better identify contaminants), to a front-facing evaporator for easy access and thorough cleaning, to the LuminIce® II UV growth inhibitor, Manitowoc designs and builds ice machines with food safety in mind.

Cleanability
Indigo® is the easiest machine to clean in the industry
Surfaces and parts that require cleaning are 100% accessible from the front of the machine and can be easily removed without tools. The swinging front door, available on 22" and 30" models, eases access to the front-facing evaporator making inspection and cleaning of the foodzone quicker and easier. Manitowoc raises the cleaning standard by not only designing Indigo ice machines to be easier to clean but by also offering several key technologies to help inhibit slime growth, lime deposits and mineral scale. For starters, we mold select foodzone plastic components with AlphaSan® antimicrobial protection.
Foodzone edges have rounded corners that wipe cleaner, easier. Our optional Automatic Cleaning System (iAuCS®) initiates a cleaning or sanitizing cycle to the evaporator AUTOMATICALLY at an interval you select, extending the time between full-service cleanings. Manitowoc’s exclusive LuminIce® Growth Inhibitor accessory creates “active air” that passes over exposed foodzone components to inhibit the growth of yeast, bacteria, and other common micro-organisms, so your Indigo stays cleaner, longer. That’s intelligent design.

LuminIce II Growth Inhibitor
Available on both Indigo NXT and NEO series ice machines, the optional LuminIce II Growth Inhibitor creates “active air” by recirculating the air inside the ice machine foodzone components to inhibit the growth of yeast, bacteria, and other common micro-organisms.

The LuminIce II space-saving design fits inside the ice machine so existing exterior clearances are not impacted. In addition, power for the unit is supplied through the ice machine’s internal electrical supply so outlet space is conserved.
With LuminIce II
Without LuminIce II
The LuminIce II device runs quietly 24 hours a day keeping your ice machine cleaner and helping to relieve the stress and pain of frequent cleanings due to challenging foodservice environments where yeast, flour, and other contaminants create an environment favorable to growth. Reduced cleanings ultimately saves labor time, cost, and machine downtime during the cleaning process.
