Cleaning
Follett ice machines and dispensers, and their associated cleaning and sanitizing procedures, are designed for
use with potable water sources. The presence, or suspected presence, of infectious agents may call for additional
measures, including the replacement of components and more comprehensive disinfection measures. Follett
recommends that these cleaning and sanitizing procedures be reviewed with the appropriate infectious agent subject
matter experts to assure complete remediation.
Periodic cleaning of Follett's ice machine system is required to ensure peak performance and delivery of clean,
sanitary ice. The recommended cleaning procedures that follow should be performed at least as frequently as
recommended and more often if environmental conditions dictate.
Cleaning of the condenser can usually be performed by facility personnel. Cleaning of the ice machine system
should be performed by your facility's trained maintenance staff or a Follett authorized service agent. Regardless of
who performs the cleaning, it is the operator's responsibility to see that this cleaning is performed according to the
schedule below. Service problems resulting from lack of preventive maintenance will not be covered under the Follett
warranty.
