Ice Qualities
The interior parts and components of the ice house are made with food-grade stainless steel and HDPE (high density polyethylene plastic.) A multi-level water filtration and a water softener is used to guarantee that customers' ice and water are clean and taste great. The chipped ice is refreshing and easy to chew as the kind you would find in a snow cone.
With Twice the Ice, the only hands that touch the customer's ice are the hands of the customer. Compare this to the number of people that touch a bag of ice sold at the local grocery or convenience store, which can reach up to 10 sets of hands. As cautious as consumers have become with sanitation, we are happy to say that no one ever touches the ice except the customer.
A leveling and raking system ensures fresh, loose ice to be delivered with every purchase.
FILTRATION SYSTEM
The water for ice and drinking water goes through a filtration system. This system includes:
- A 1 micron sediment filter that removes particulate matter such as sand, silt, loose scale, clay and organic matter from the water.
- A charcoal carbon filter which is the best known treatment for removing organic chemicals, VOCs, pesticides, herbicides and chlorine and its by-products.
- A water softener system which has a separate brine tank that uses salt to create a brine solution. Water moves into a mineral tank where the calcium and magnesium ions move to the beads in the tank, replacing the sodium ions.
- An ultraviolet light irradiates the drinking water before it fills your water container. This process kills bacterial microorganisms.
