The Manitowoc 9405813 Ice Machine Sanitizer is an EPA-registered, food-grade disinfectant essential for the safe operation of commercial ice machines. Specifically formulated for use on Manitowoc Indigo, NEO, and Koolaire units, this 1-gallon concentrate is the mandatory second step in any professional cleaning protocol. While cleaners remove mineral buildup, this sanitizer targets "biofilm"—the pink slime and algae that can harbor harmful pathogens like Listeria and E. coli, ensuring your ice remains sanitary and odor-free.

This advanced quaternary ammonium compound is highly effective yet safe for food-contact surfaces when used at the recommended dilution. It provides a broad-spectrum kill against viruses, bacteria, and fungi, and has even been identified by the EPA (Reg No. 10324-81) for use against high-level viral pathogens. Its non-corrosive nature ensures that it will not damage nickel-plated evaporators or plastic components, making it the only sanitizer recommended by Manitowoc to maintain your machine's warranty and NSF certification.
