Hoshizaki KM-522MAK — Cube Modular Head Ice Machine, 22"W, 445 lb/day
The Hoshizaki KM-522MAK is a commercial modular ice-making head that makes cube ice, rated up to 445 lb of ice per 24 hours. Cube ice is the default for bars and restaurants — slow-melting and clear in drinks. That 445 lb/day figure is the AHRI rating (90°F air / 70°F water); real output runs lower in a hot kitchen, so size with headroom. It measures 22″ W × 27.4″ D × 28″ H and ships as a head only, so budget a matching-width storage bin. It is air-cooled — the simplest install, but it exhausts heat into the room and needs clearance. It is ENERGY STAR certified, NSF listed, wired for 115V. Manufacturer warranty: 3yr parts & labor; 5yr parts on compressor & condenser. Plan on a water filter — most manufacturers require it and hard water cuts production and machine life.
