Configuration decisions
Choose the format for the job.
Task suitability, usable configuration and exact-model compatibility
Compare the current equipment for your hygiene, bar or utility task. Confirm dimensions, connection sizes, mounting and compatibility for the exact model before ordering.
Confirm fit and site connections
Check installed dimensions, mounting, plumbing connections and access for operation and cleaning. Review the actual dimensional drawing and installation instructions before ordering.
Measure twice. Choose once.
Fit means more than equipment width.
Exterior & operating footprint
Installed dimensions, mounting, plumbing connections and access for operation and cleaning. Use the exact model’s dimensional drawing and installation instructions.
Capacity & access
Task suitability, usable configuration and exact-model compatibility. Confirm the actual model’s usable configuration rather than relying on the category name.
Doorway & delivery route
Measure entrances, corridors, turns, stairs and elevators. Obtain packaged dimensions and weight as well as installed dimensions. Confirm delivery and placement arrangements before ordering.
Electrical supply & receptacle
Check the exact model’s voltage, frequency, phase, rated current, plug and circuit requirements against the site supply and installation manual.
Ventilation & installation space
Confirm intake and discharge locations, required clearances and ambient limits. Preserve access for cleaning and service. An illustrative image does not establish installation clearance.
Water & drain connections
Verify the exact model’s water temperature, pressure, quality and drainage requirements. Use qualified installation support where required by the manufacturer and site.
Capacity, output & included components
Task suitability, usable configuration and exact-model compatibility. Equipment and only the fittings, mounting components and accessories listed in the offer. Read the exact listing and manufacturer documents before comparing models.
Legs, levelling & installed height
Check supplied legs or feet, complete installed height and the manufacturer’s levelling, mounting and movement instructions. Confirm any separate support or mounting components.
Operation & ownership
Look beyond the purchase price.
Energy & operating information
Compare documented energy information and operating conditions for the exact model. Review fuel or electrical input and the operating conditions behind output or capacity figures. Compare like dishwashing and sink tasks under the same documented conditions.
Cleaning & maintenance
Review the exact manual’s cleaning, sanitizing, surface care and service intervals. Plan access to food-contact areas and removable parts, and use the specified products and procedures.
Commercial approvals & suitability
Verify certification and intended use on the actual model’s documentation. Confirm suitability for the proposed application where required; do not assume collection-wide approval.
Warranty, parts & Canadian service
Confirm current Canadian warranty terms, exclusions, installation obligations, claim procedures and local service arrangements for the exact model. Ask about parts and consumables before ordering.

Frequently asked questions
A few questions before ordering.
Is an underbar bin a direct replacement for an ice-head storage bin?
No. The mounting, loading and drainage arrangements differ. Use the bin intended for the selected ice head.
Will any ice head fit an ice-storage bin?
Confirm the manufacturer’s compatible head and adapter combination. Width alone is not enough to establish a correct installation.
