Kitchenaid Undercounter Ice Makers

KitchenAid Undercounter Ice Makers at Plesser's Appliances

KitchenAid undercounter ice makers, available at Plesser's Appliances, install at counter height in a cabinetry run or stand freestanding, producing ice on demand at the bar or in the kitchen. Front-venting construction allows a flush installation without compromising airflow.

Counter-Height Ice at the Point of Use
An undercounter ice maker puts ice where drinks are actually made rather than across the kitchen, which is the practical case for adding one to a bar or island. It also frees the refrigerator's ice compartment for freezer capacity. Confirm width against your available run before cabinetry is laid out.

Production and Bin Capacity
Daily production determines how quickly the bin refills; bin capacity determines how much is ready when guests arrive. Both matter for entertaining and both vary by model. Confirm the figures against your actual volume rather than assuming a dedicated unit will keep up with a party.

Clear Ice and Filtration
Select models produce clear ice, which freezes more slowly with fewer trapped impurities, melting more slowly and diluting a drink less. Filtration reduces chlorine taste before the ice forms — more noticeable in ice than almost anywhere else. Confirm cube style, filter type, and replacement intervals.

Front Venting and Clearance
Front-grille venting allows the cabinet to be surrounded by finished panels and counter, which is what makes a zero-clearance installation possible. Because ice production generates more heat than refrigeration alone, front clearance is not optional. Confirm cutout dimensions and required clearance before framing.

Plumbing, Drainage, and Installation Planning
Installation requires a dedicated circuit, a water supply line, and depending on model a gravity drain or condensate pump. Whether a drain is required is the single most consequential item to settle before cabinetry and flooring are finished — retrofitting one is not practical.
