Call (713) 529-5761No Ice? We'll Get You Producing Again.
A dead ice machine stops the bar, the drive-thru, and the kitchen cold. Lane Equipment has serviced commercial ice machines across Houston since 1966. We diagnose the real cause — refrigeration, water, scale, or controls — quote before we work, and repair on-site whenever possible.
We stock common ice machine parts, including Manitowoc and Scotsman components, at our Houston headquarters so most repairs finish in a single visit. Ask about a descale-and-sanitize cleaning while we're there to keep production high.

Signs You Need Service Now
Not making ice or low production
The machine runs but output has dropped, or it has stopped producing ice altogether.
Cloudy, soft, or slow-melting ice
Poor ice quality usually points to water, scale, or refrigeration problems worth diagnosing.
Freezing up or won’t harvest
Ice bridging in the evaporator or a machine stuck mid-cycle that never drops its batch.
Leaks, noise, or slime buildup
Water on the floor, loud operation, or pink/black slime means it’s time for service and a deep clean.
Completely Out of Ice?
A machine down during service is an emergency. We keep 24/7 response and stocked parts so you're not buying bagged ice for a week.

Ice Machine Repair FAQs
How fast can you repair my ice machine in Houston?
Most Houston-area ice machine calls are handled same-day or next-day, with 24/7 emergency service when you’re completely out of ice. We dispatch from our Houston headquarters on Richmond Avenue.
Do you repair Manitowoc ice machines?
Yes. Manitowoc is one of our core lines and we stock common Manitowoc parts. We also service Koolaire, Scotsman, Hoshizaki, Ice-O-Matic, Follett, and every other major commercial brand.
My ice looks cloudy or the machine has slime — do I need repair or cleaning?
Often both. Scale and biofilm cut production and ice quality, and a neglected machine breaks down sooner. We diagnose the mechanical issue and perform a full descale-and-sanitize cleaning so the fix actually lasts.
Do you offer preventive ice machine cleaning and maintenance?
Yes. Scheduled cleaning and maintenance is the cheapest way to avoid an emergency breakdown and keep production up. Ask us about a maintenance plan for your Houston location.
Do you service out-of-warranty ice machines?
Absolutely — no authorized-warranty channel required. We repair older and out-of-warranty machines on your terms, and tell you honestly when a unit is worth fixing versus replacing.
