Ice Machine Cleaner 1 gal
Nu-Calgon 4287-08 is a liquid ice machine cleaner formulated for nickel-safe use in commercial ice makers. The one-gallon container supplies food-grade solution that meets USDA approval standards for food-contact surfaces. It is intended for maintenance professionals and facility managers who need a compliant descaling agent.
Thermals noise and power draw
This chemical cleaner produces no heat, noise or electrical load during application. The liquid is diluted at 13.6 lb per gal and circulated through the ice machine according to the equipment maker's cleaning cycle. No power supply, ventilation or acoustic planning is required for the product itself.
Build fit and requirements
The cleaner frees the ice machine from mineral scale without attacking nickel-plated evaporators. It requires a compatible ice maker with a circulation path for the diluted solution and a drain for the spent fluid. Buyers who need a cleaner for non-nickel systems or who want a powder concentrate instead of a liquid will not be served by this formulation.

Questions about this item
How do I install the Nu-Calgon 4287-08 cleaner in my ice machine and what step is often missed?
Dilute the liquid at the recommended 13.6 lb per gal ratio, circulate through the machine per the manufacturer's cleaning cycle, then rinse thoroughly. The step most often missed is the final rinse cycles to remove all cleaner residue.
What maintenance or replacement will the Nu-Calgon 4287-08 require over time?
The 1 gal container is a consumable supply. You will need to purchase additional bottles when your current supply runs out based on your cleaning schedule and machine size.
What limit appears first when using Nu-Calgon 4287-08 continuously in a high-volume ice machine?
The practical limit is the 1 gal container volume. For large machines or frequent cleaning cycles, you may need multiple containers per session, making inventory planning the first constraint.
