The ice and water delivery systems associated with ice making machines can harbor dangerous pathogens such as Legionella bacteria, mycobacteria (NTM), and fungi. Because of these concerns, organizations such as the Department of Health, and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) have been conducting more frequent inspections of ice machine equipment to ensure they are being cleaned and sanitized per the manufacturers specifications. The lack of proper documentation and proof of this task has been a challenge for many facilities.
