Self-contained, modular or dispenser?
Every Hoshizaki ice machine is one of three types. The right one depends on how much ice you need, the space you have and how people will use it.
Self-contained
Makes and stores ice in one cabinet. Connect power, water and a drain and it is ready to go. Under-counter models fit beneath a bench.
Best for: crib rooms, small kitchens, bars and workshops
Output: about 25 to 180 kg of ice per day, with built-in storage
Modular
An ice-making head sits on top of a separate storage bin, so you can match the head to your daily output and the bin to how much ice you need on hand.
Best for: camps, larger kitchens, processing and anywhere that needs a lot of ice
Output: about 175 to 890 kg of ice per day, with bins holding 144 to 578 kg
Ice and water dispenser
Makes ice and dispenses it straight into a cup or jug at the push of a button, along with chilled water. No one handles the ice with a scoop.
Best for: crib rooms, break rooms, healthcare and shared spaces
Output: about 50 to 105 kg of ice per day

Buying a commercial ice machine in Townsville
Eureka Water & Filtration is an authorised Hoshizaki dealer based in Mount St John, Townsville. We supply commercial ice machines and ice makers to mine sites, camps, industrial sites, commercial kitchens and businesses across Townsville and North Queensland, including Mount Isa, Cloncurry, Cairns, Mackay and the Bowen Basin.
Sized for North Queensland heat. An ice machine makes less ice as the air and water get hotter, and Hoshizaki output ratings are measured in standard test conditions. On a hot Townsville day, or in a crib room on a remote site, a machine can fall short of its rating. We size every ice machine with extra capacity so you still have enough ice in summer.
Protected from hard water. Bore water and hard water leave scale inside an ice maker, which cuts output and shortens its life. As water treatment specialists, we can check your water and match a Hoshizaki water filter to your machine, then keep replacement cartridges in stock in Townsville.
Ice machine, ice maker or ice dispenser? These names are often used for the same thing. Whichever you call it, use the selector above or tell us what you need, and we will send a written quote, typically the same business day.

Do you sell Hoshizaki ice machines in Townsville?
Yes. Eureka Water & Filtration is an authorised seller of Hoshizaki commercial ice machines, based in Mount St John, Townsville.
Do you install ice machines?
We supply the machine. Installation needs a licensed refrigeration or plumbing contractor, and we can supply direct to your contractor.
Which type of ice machine do I need?
Cube and crescent ice suit drinks, and crescent is the quickest and most cost-effective ice to make. Flake and nugget ice suit cooling and packing food or products, and nugget ice is easy to chew. Tell us what the ice is for and we will recommend a type.
How do I choose the right size ice machine?
Work out how much ice you use on your busiest day, then allow some extra. Ice machines are rated in kilograms of ice per 24 hours. Modular machines can be paired with a storage bin so ice builds up ahead of peak times.
