After watching other manufacturers develop and introduce larger, more complex, and operationally expensive machines, we set out to design a more efficient and owner-friendly version.
LEGACY MACHINE FEATURES
-
The KI810 design was compact, yet highly productive. With its 850 lbs. of bin storage capacity, it had 70+ bags of ice ready to vend each morning. The unit came standard with one C1848 Ice Maker and was capable of producing an additional 84 bags of ice every 24 hours. The KI810 could be equipped with two C1848 ice makers to increase daily production to upwards of 200+ bags each day.
The new KI810 was the larger version of the KI510. With a larger bin capacity, this model was designed to handle more traffic. Like the KI510, this machine vended both water and ice.
