Holiday Ice, Inc. Sets New Standard in High-Volume Ice Production with the Arctic-Temp 1000 SM-L Industrial Ice Machine
Holiday Ice, Inc. highlights the Arctic-Temp 1000 SM-L, a skid-mounted industrial ice machine designed for harsh environments and high-volume needs. Featuring double-surface freezing technology and durable stainless steel construction, it offers a reliable alternative to complex 7000 lbs ice machines for hard cracked ice production.
Arctic-Temp 1000 Ice Solution
Longwood, FL, United States, 6th Dec 2025 – Businesses requiring reliable, high-volume ice production often face a difficult choice between efficiency and durability. To address this critical industrial need, Holiday Ice, Inc. highlights its flagship solution for large-scale operations: the Arctic-Temp 1000 SM-L. Designed to withstand the harshest environments while delivering premium hard-cracked ice, this machine reflects over 60 years of engineering expertise.

The demand for robust ice manufacturing has never been higher, particularly in sectors such as seafood processing, produce transport, and concrete cooling. Therefore, the Arctic-Temp 1000 SM-L Industrial Ice Machine answers this call with a skid-mounted design that emphasizes “rugged simplicity.” Unlike competitor models with complex electronics and fragile moving parts, the 1000 SM-L is built to perform consistently, ensuring production lines and supply chains remain uninterrupted.
Redefining Industrial Capacity and Efficiency
At the heart of the 1000 SM-L is its impressive production capability. While many units struggle to maintain output in fluctuating temperatures, this model delivers approximately 6,500 lbs of hard-cracked ice every 24 hours. For facility managers seeking a robust alternative that rivals a 7000 lbs industrial ice machine, the 1000 SM-L offers a competitive edge. It combines high capacity with a compact, skid-mounted footprint, which simplifies installation.
Additionally, the machine uses Holiday Ice’s signature vertical tube technology. This design features double-walled cylindrical evaporators that allow ice to form on both the inside and outside surfaces. This “double surface freezing” method maximizes heat exchange efficiency, resulting in faster production cycles and lower energy consumption per pound of hard-cracked ice.
“Our goal has always been to eliminate the headaches associated with commercial ice making,” says Lauren Harbit of Holiday Ice, Inc. “The 1000 SM-L removes the most common failure points. There are no moving parts in the freezing zone—no augers, no gears, and no seals to leak or break. Instead, it focuses purely on consistent, high-volume output.”
Built for the Toughest Environments
Durability is non-negotiable for industrial applications. The 1000 SM-L is constructed with a T-304 stainless steel evaporator and frame, offering superior corrosion resistance. This is essential for outdoor usage or saline environments often found in the seafood industry.
Key technical advantages include:
- Copeland Discus Compressor: Known for industry-leading efficiency and reliability.
- Hot Gas Defrost: Ensures a rapid harvest cycle and quick recovery, boosting daily yield.
- Harvest Hold (PHC): Guarantees a definite defrost even in varying ambient temperatures.
- Simple Mechanical Controls: Uses standard components instead of expensive, hard-to-repair circuit boards.
This focus on standard, non-proprietary parts ensures straightforward and cost-effective maintenance. Operators do not need to wait weeks for proprietary components; most service parts can be sourced locally, minimizing downtime.
A Legacy of American Manufacturing
Holiday Ice, Inc. has been a family-owned leader in the industry for over six decades. Their commitment to personal service matches their dedication to quality manufacturing. Every machine is factory-assembled, fully charged, and rigorously tested before shipping. This “plug-and-play” approach reduces installation costs and ensures the unit performs immediately upon arrival.
The company’s Longwood, Florida, facility serves as the dedicated manufacturing hub for the Arctic-Temp 1000 SM-L Industrial Ice Machine. Skilled technicians ensure American-made quality is built into every unit before it ships to clients nationwide.
