{"product_id":"im-0550-wh","title":"ICETRO Maestro IM-0550-WH — 30″ Water-Cooled Half-Cube Modular Ice Machine Head","description":"\u003cp\u003eBuilt in the ICETRO tradition of \u003cem\u003esimplicity, reliability, longevity, and high performance\u003c\/em\u003e, the Maestro IM-0550-WH pairs strong half-cube output with the cool, quiet operation of water-cooled condensing. Rather than dumping heat into the surrounding space, it rejects condenser heat through a water loop — keeping nearby areas cooler and holding production remarkably steady even when ambient temperatures climb.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eHalf-cube ice is smaller and packs more densely than full cubes, so it cools drinks quickly, fills glasses efficiently, and displaces beautifully — ideal for soft drinks, mixed beverages, and self-serve dispensing. Production is rated up to 547 lbs per 24 hours under standard conditions (70°F air \/ 50°F water) and stays strong at 483 lbs under warmer conditions (90°F air \/ 70°F water) — only a small drop, where air-cooled units fall off more sharply. At 4.53 kWh per 100 lbs it's the most energy-efficient model in the IM-0550 family, all on a standard 115V circuit. A water-cooled machine needs a condenser water supply and drain in addition to the potable ice-making water line, and uses more water than an air-cooled unit. Prefer classic large cubes?
