Product Description
The Halcyon ICE 35 is a self-contained cube ice maker producing clear 14-gram cylindrical ice cubes at a rate of up to 35kg per 24-hour period. The unit stores ice within a built-in insulated bin, making it a compact, standalone solution that requires no separate storage equipment. It is designed for operations where counter or undercounter space is limited and ice demand is relatively modest.
In practice, the ICE 35 suits sites with light to moderate ice requirements — think a small café serving cold drinks through the day, a compact bar, or a catering operation needing a reliable top-up supply. The cylindrical cube format melts slowly compared to crushed or flaked ice, which means drinks stay colder for longer and ice consumption per cover tends to be lower. The insulated storage bin helps preserve stock between service periods, reducing the frequency of production cycles.
A number of practical design choices make this machine straightforward to maintain in a working kitchen environment:
- Removable spray curtain, water jets and cup holders for thorough cleaning without specialist tools
- Stainless steel construction throughout for durability and hygiene compliance
- Modern refrigerant specification to meet current environmental legislation
- Extra bin insulation to extend ice storage life between cycles
- Compact self-contained footprint requiring no separate ice storage bin
Installation requires a mains water connection, a drain, and an appropriate electrical supply. In hard water areas, a compatible inline water filter is strongly recommended — scale build-up is one of the most common causes of ice machine faults, and failure to fit a filter in hard water areas may affect warranty cover. It is worth checking local water hardness before installation if you are unsure.
The ICE 35 is best suited to smaller venues and lower-volume operations. If your site runs a busy bar service, covers high footfall across multiple sittings, or requires ice for both front-of-house drinks and back-of-house food preparation, a higher-output machine is likely to serve you better. Equally, if ice demand is very occasional, a smaller unit may represent better value.
If you are unsure whether the ICE 35 matches your service requirements, or if you have questions about water filtration or installation, we are happy to talk it through with you before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- For a small café or low-volume bar serving soft drinks and occasional cocktails, 35kg per 24 hours is generally adequate. However, if you are running continuous bar service across a full day, or using ice for both drinks and food preparation, you would typically benefit from a higher-output machine. As a rough guide, a busy bar can consume 1–1.5kg of ice per customer across a session, so it is worth calculating your realistic peak demand before committing to a capacity.
- In hard water areas, a compatible inline water filter is strongly recommended and may be a condition of your warranty cover. Scale deposits are the most common cause of faults and reduced output in ice machines, so fitting a filter from the outset is sound practice regardless of your water hardness. If you are unsure of your local water hardness, your water supplier can provide this, or we can advise on suitable filtration options.
- The ICE 35 requires a cold mains water inlet, a gravity drain connection, and an appropriate electrical supply — ensure your install location has all three accessible before the unit arrives. The machine will also need adequate ventilation clearance around the unit to allow the condenser to reject heat effectively; fitting it into a fully enclosed space without airflow can affect output and reliability. If you are planning to site it in a confined area, it is worth discussing this with us beforehand.
