Summary
Buying ice machines, dispensers, and filtration is not a simple product purchase—it’s a regulated infrastructure decision that affects safety, inspections, uptime, and warranty protection. The difference between working with a true commercial equipment dealer and a transactional vendor shows up long after the invoice is paid.
Aldevra operates as a full-scope commercial kitchen equipment dealer with deep federal contracting experience, not a product-only reseller. That distinction changes everything.
Federal Compliance Navigation (Built Into the Process)
Government and healthcare facilities don’t just buy equipment—they buy compliance.
Aldevra supports federal buyers through:
- GSA Multiple Award Schedule (GSA MAS) procurement
- FedMall purchasing pathways
- Buy American and Trade Agreements Act alignment
- Agency-specific documentation requirements
- Installation and infection control coordination
This means:
- No unauthorized products
- No missing certifications
- No procurement shortcuts that later trigger audit or inspection issues
Filtration Is Engineered—Not “Added Later”
Most vendors treat filtration as an accessory. Aldevra treats it as equipment protection, warranty protection, and compliance protection.
We:
- Match filtration to actual local water quality
- Align filtration to ice type, production load, and healthcare risk
- Engineer carbon vs. reverse osmosis (RO) with blending
- Prevent scale lockup, biofilm growth, and warranty denials
This protects:
- Evaporators
- Compressors
- Production capacity
- Inspection outcomes
- Long-term service life
Installation Coordination (Where Most Failures Start)
Vendors ship boxes. Aldevra manages infrastructure reality.
We coordinate:
- Drainage (gravity vs. pumped)
- Air gaps and backflow prevention
- Electrical loads and dedicated circuits
- Water pressure and filtration placement
- Access paths, craning, and rigging
- Healthcare infection control approvals
This prevents:
- Floods
- Electrical faults
- Delayed startups
- Failed inspections
- Reinstall costs
Service Alignment & Preventive Maintenance Planning
Installing equipment without a service plan is how facilities end up in emergency mode.
Aldevra aligns:
- Cleaning schedules
- Sanitation access
- Preventive maintenance (PM) programs
- Local service coverage
- Warranty requirements
This protects:
- Production reliability
- Inspection readiness
- Budget predictability
- Staff safety
Emergency Support & Downtime Protection
When an ice system fails, facilities lose:
- Patient hydration
- Foodservice capacity
- Infection control protection
- Beverage sales
- Operational continuity
Aldevra supports:
- Emergency service coordination
- Replacement routing
- Temporary deployment options
- Compliance-safe restart validation
Warranty Protection Is Engineered Up Front
Most warranty denials trace back to:
- Scale damage
- Improper drainage
- Electrical noncompliance
- Missed maintenance
- Poor water quality control
Aldevra designs systems so warranty protection is defended before the unit ever turns on.
The Dealer Difference in One Line
A vendor sells equipment. A commercial dealer protects performance, compliance, inspections, uptime, and warranty for the life of the system.
That’s the difference Aldevra brings—especially in:
- Federal facilities
- Veterans Affairs (VA) medical centers
- Hospitals
- K–12 districts
- Corrections
- Mission-critical operations
