Enozo’s compact EcO3Ice Antimicrobial Ice Protection device uses a unique, synthetic diamond-based technology to continuously treat incoming water used by ice machines, killing the bacteria in the water and ice-making path from beginning to end. With each cycle, EcO3Ice creates a small, but effective, amount of ozone – nature’s favorite sanitizer – which continuously treats the machine interior, storage bin, remote bin and drains. By dramatically slowing growth of biofilm, mold and yeast colonies, EcO3Ice reduces build-up and greatly extends time between cleanings. A twist-on cartridge, which renews the antimicrobial capability is replaced by the operator every 6 to 24 months.
