The range has been designed with the environment in mind, including BPA-free plastic and recyclable parts.
The Elevation Series includes digital diagnostics aimed at making usage, cleaning and servicing easier.
Also included is a Smart LED light which indicates when cleaning is required, and a one-touch cleaning, descaling and sanitizing feature.
The machine claims to provide a ‘unique solution’ to the historic industry problem of hot-air discharge clearance.
The Dual Exhaust feature is standard on every Elevation Series unit and discharges hot air from both the side and the top, so regardless of air flow requirements these units will adapt making it fine for tight space and negating the need for kits to adjust airflow.
Adam Lenton, marketing manager for Classeq, which is the exclusive distributor for Ice-O-Matic in the UK, said: “The new Ice-O-Matic Elevation Series range is a step forward for the industry as a whole. Many of the range’s features are a first for the hospitality sector and the design is ‘genius in its simplicity’ allowing for ease of operation, cleanliness and value.
“Features such as the hot air discharge is a step change for users in how machines can be sited to optimise bar space and increasingly, environmental issues are driving technological advancement and progression”.
The new range can be viewed on the new Elevation micro website which currently features the first new ‘LG1 models’. With range expansion planned across 2018, the site is due to expand to incorporate the new models as they become available.
