™
Howe'sENERGY STAR®
qualified Rapid Freeze Flake
Ice Machinesset the standard
for energy efficiency, water
conservation andlonger, troublefree operating life.
Our reliable ice flakers are
engineered to deliver exceptional
ice quality that keeps food cooler
and fresher, longer, atreduced
operating expense.
From food processing and
distribution, to supermarket and
retail applications, Howe has an
energy-efficient Rapid Freeze
solution to meet your needs.
PROVEN ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Innovative engineering, rugged
construction deliver exceptional
heat transfer. Requires
significantly less energy per pound.
Substantially lower operating/
maintenance requirements.
Optimized water usage.
EXCEPTIONAL ICE QUALITY
True, 100% dry, sub-cooled flake
ice contains 4x more surface area
for significantly better cooling – up
to 20% longer. Drier ice draws heat
away quickly and evenly. Process
uses less energy with virtually zero
water loss.
LONGER, TROUBLE-FREE
OPERATING LIFE
Innovative evaporator design
utilizes gravity for 50% lighter
bearing load.Operates, troublefree,3x - 4x longer than
competitive machines. Fewer
maintenance/service issues.
