High-capacity, durable, and engineered for heavy use, this stainless-steel ice machine delivers up to 1,000 lbs of crystal-clear cube ice daily. Available in air-cooled or water-cooled configurations, it provides clean, slow-melting ice with minimal maintenance.
Overview and Features
Naixer TH‑1000B 1000 Pound Ice Machine – Self‑Contained Full Cube Ice Maker
Designed for Restaurants, Bars, and Hotels That Never Stop Serving
The Naixer TH-1000B is a workhorse commercial ice cube machine engineered for busy kitchens, hotel beverage stations, convenience store chains, and any foodservice operation where ice is non-negotiable. It cranks out 1,000 lbs (450 kg) of 22×22×22mm crystal-clear full cube ice every 24 hours and holds it all in a built-in 300 kg insulated bin. No external storage tank, no extra footprint — just plug, connect water, and you’re ready for the dinner rush.
Full cube ice is the bartender’s first choice for a reason. Solid, dense, and beautifully clear, it melts far more slowly than half cubes or nugget ice. That means a glass of whiskey stays cold without turning watery, a banquet water station keeps drinks crisp through the entire event, and every bag of retail ice looks premium on the shelf. If your business runs on drink quality and repeat customers, this clear ice cube machine is the upgrade you need.
A 1000 Pound Ice Machine That Arrives Complete — No Modular Bin Trap
The Naixer TH‑1000B is a self‑contained 1000 pound ice machine built for high‑volume commercial kitchens, hotel banquet operations, convention centers, and large restaurants that move ice by the pallet, not the scoop. It produces up to 1,000 lbs (450 kg) of crystal‑clear, hard, 22×22×22mm full cube ice every 24 hours — and it stores every pound of it inside an integrated 300 kg (660+ lb) insulated storage bin. No separate bin to purchase, no head‑to‑bin compatibility matching, no $800–$2,000 hidden cost that modular systems from premium brands often add as a separate line item.
Full cube ice remains the most versatile commercial ice shape. Its low surface‑to‑volume ratio means it melts slowly, keeping beverages cold without diluting them during extended banquet service or long hotel breakfast hours. The TH‑1000B’s 342‑tray evaporator system delivers consistent clarity and hardness across every batch, so every cube that lands in a glass, a water pitcher, or a retail ice bag looks and performs exactly the same.
Three reasons the TH‑1000B stands out among commercial ice machines in the 1000‑pound class:
Self‑contained architecture. The ice maker and bin are one unit. One delivery, one set of utility connections, one warranty. You avoid the most common budget surprise in commercial ice equipment purchasing — the second invoice for a storage bin.
Dual cooling configuration. Choose air‑cooled for well‑ventilated kitchens or water‑cooled for environments where ambient temperatures regularly exceed 32°C. Both options deliver the same 1,000‑pound output, so the choice is about your site, not a trade‑off in production.
A 3‑year full machine warranty covering core systems and key components. In this capacity class, a compressor or evaporator repair can run well over $2,000 — and those failures most often occur in years two through five. This warranty protects you through that entire risk window.
How the TH‑1000B Produces Clear, Hard Full Cube Ice at Scale
The TH‑1000B uses a horizontal evaporator plate with a dense 342‑cell ice‑forming grid — one of the highest tray counts in Naixer’s lineup below 2,000 lbs. Water is distributed evenly across the chilled plate and freezes in layers from the outside of each cell inward. This directional freezing pushes dissolved air and minerals out of the cube, which is why the ice comes out crystal‑clear from edge to edge, not cloudy in the center. Each completed batch drops directly into the built‑in storage bin, and a level sensor cycles production on and off automatically to maintain a steady supply without over‑producing.
The refrigeration system is built around a high‑efficiency compressor paired with R404A refrigerant — a combination that holds rated output even during extended operation. The air‑cooled option uses no water for condenser heat rejection, which keeps monthly utility bills predictable. The water‑cooled option is available for installations where ambient temperatures regularly exceed 32°C (90°F) and air‑cooled performance would be compromised.
For daily maintenance, the modular internal layout provides straightforward access to the evaporator, water circuit, and bin surfaces. A complete care routine — descaling, sanitizing, and condenser brushing — is covered in our Naixer ice machine cleaning guide.
Where a 1000 Pound Ice Maker Fits in a Commercial Kitchen
A 1000 pound ice maker like the TH‑1000B is sized for operations where ice demand is measured in tons, not pounds. A 300‑seat full‑service restaurant with a busy bar needs roughly 600–800 lbs of ice on a peak night. A 200‑room hotel serving a lobby bar, room service, and a banquet hall requires at least 1,000 lbs daily. A convention center or casino running multiple beverage stations needs a machine that never stops. The TH‑1000B’s 1,000‑pound daily output — with a 660‑pound built‑in storage reserve — covers those demands without pushing the machine to its limit.
The built‑in bin also simplifies installation in spaces where a separate bin would create a larger footprint than the kitchen layout allows. Because the machine is self‑contained, it occupies a single, predictable footprint and requires only one set of utility connections. For a hotel or large restaurant planning an equipment layout, that predictability matters.

Built in a 30,000 m² ISO9001-Certified Smart Factory
The TH-1000B isn’t a rebadged commodity machine. It’s engineered and manufactured in Naixer’s own 30,000 m² smart factory, where automated laser cutting, CNC forming, and IoT-driven quality control deliver millimeter-level precision. Over 200 technicians and 300+ active patents support an annual capacity of 200,000+ units — trusted by KFC, Luckin Coffee, and over 5,000 commercial clients across 100 countries.
Every unit undergoes post-assembly performance verification, circuit leak detection, and batch burn-in testing under extreme conditions. This is the infrastructure that backs our 3-year full machine warranty — and why a commercial ice cube machine from Naixer stays reliable year after year.
How much ice does the TH‑1000B produce per day?
Q: How much ice does the TH‑1000B produce per day?
A: Under standard test conditions (ambient 25°C, water 20°C), the TH‑1000B produces up to 1,000 lbs (450 kg) of crystal‑clear full cube ice every 24 hours. Actual output varies with installation environment — warmer ambient air or inlet water will reduce daily production. Our application engineers can provide a site‑specific estimate.
Q: Does the TH‑1000B come with a storage bin?
A: Yes. The TH‑1000B is a self‑contained 1000 pound ice machine with a built‑in 300 kg (660+ lb) insulated storage bin. You don’t need to purchase a separate bin.
Q: Should I choose air‑cooled or water‑cooled for the TH‑1000B?
A: If your kitchen has adequate ventilation and ambient temperatures stay below 32°C (90°F), air‑cooled is the more economical choice — it uses zero water for condenser cooling and keeps utility bills lower. If your kitchen regularly exceeds that temperature or is tightly enclosed, water‑cooled will maintain rated output more reliably.
Q: How does the TH‑1000B compare to a Hoshizaki or Scotsman 1000 pound ice machine?
A: All three produce commercial‑grade ice with strong warranties. The TH‑1000B is self‑contained with a built‑in bin; comparable Hoshizaki and Scotsman models are often modular and require a separate bin purchase. Naixer’s factory‑direct pricing and 3‑year full machine warranty offer strong value in this capacity class.
Q: What maintenance does a 1000 pound ice machine need?
A: Routine maintenance includes monthly descaling with nickel‑safe cleaner, quarterly condenser fin cleaning, and filter replacement every six months. Naixer backs the TH‑1000B with a 3‑year full warranty and provides a complete cleaning and maintenance guide.
