TH‑E30 Undercounter Ice Machine – 80 lb Compact Commercial Cube Ice Maker (Air‑cooled)
Overview and Features
The Naixer TH‑E30 is a self‑contained commercial undercounter ice machine engineered for small cafes, bars, limited‑space kitchens, and office breakrooms where every inch of counter space matters. It produces up to 80 lbs (36 kg) of crystal‑clear 22×22×22mm cube ice per day, with a 12 kg (26 lb) built‑in storage bin that holds ready‑to‑use ice right where it’s needed—under the counter.
In the foodservice industry, ice is a daily operational necessity. From restaurants and bars to hotels, cafés, and catering kitchens, a reliable commercial ice machine directly affects beverage quality, service speed, and customer satisfaction. Undercounter ice machines provide compact, efficient ice production for space‑constrained commercial operations. These self‑contained units fit beneath counters while producing various ice types for different applications.
For small cafes, bars, offices and kitchens, the TH‑E30 offers the perfect entry point into commercial cube ice production. Its compact footprint fits under standard counters and its self‑cleaning cycle makes maintenance simple for operations without dedicated maintenance staff. The machine plugs into a standard outlet and connects to your water line—no complex installation, no expensive plumbing work.
TH-E30 Product Specification
Key Features:
80 lb (36 kg) Daily Production: Enough for approximately 160–240 iced beverages per day—ideal for a small cafe, neighborhood bar, or office breakroom serving 50–100 people daily. For a small business, this reliable daily output ensures you never run short during peak hours.
Crystal‑Clear 22×22×22mm Cube Ice: Standard full cube ice that melts slowly and looks clean in any glass. Square ice cubes are widely preferred in commercial environments for their uniform shape, attractive presentation, slow melting rate, and efficient storage with minimal wasted space. The 22×22mm standard cube is compatible with most ice dispensers and glassware.
Compact Undercounter Design: The self‑contained design slides neatly under a standard counter, making ice production close to your sink and bar while preserving clean lines. Specifically designed to fit beneath counters or in areas where floor space or height restrictions prohibit use of larger equipment.
Self‑Cleaning Cycle: The built‑in automatic cleaning function handles descaling and sanitizing with a single button press—no disassembly, no specialized training, no service call required. Regular cleaning every 6 months is recommended to maintain peak hygiene and ice quality.
R290 Refrigerant: Environmentally friendly hydrocarbon with ultra‑low Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 3. As of January 1, 2026, self‑contained air‑cooled ice machines that produce 1,000 lbs of ice or less must use R290 refrigerant under the EPA’s Technology Transition Rule. The TH‑E30 is fully compliant and future‑ready.
Durable Stainless Steel Construction: Robust stainless steel exteriors and food‑grade internal components provide durability, corrosion resistance, and easy cleaning. Commercial models feature durable construction, high production rates, and advanced features for demanding operations.
Why an Undercounter Ice Machine Makes Sense for Small Businesses
For small cafes, bars, and offices, an undercounter ice machine offers a combination of space efficiency, workflow convenience, and ice quality that larger modular systems or portable countertop units simply cannot match.
Fits where space is tight. Undercounter commercial ice machines are compact and ideal for small‑volume ice production. Specifically designed to fit beneath counters or in areas where floor space or height restrictions prohibit use of larger equipment. The TH‑E30’s modest footprint slides under a standard counter, leaving your countertop free for actual work—not an ice machine.
Ice where your staff actually needs it. An undercounter ice machine placed beneath the bar or directly beside the service well eliminates the constant back‑and‑forth trips to a distant ice machine in the back hallway. Bartenders scoop and pour in one motion. Coffee shop staff don’t leave the counter. Service flows smoothly.
Professional ice without the professional price tag. Full cube ice is the most versatile and widely accepted ice type in foodservice. It is the most common ice type in commercial operations and works equally well in soft drinks, iced coffee, cocktails, and blended beverages. Undercounter ice machines are more compact and less expensive than modular ice machines, making them a popular choice for smaller businesses. With the TH‑E30, you get commercial‑grade cube ice at an accessible price.
Designed for Small Commercial Kitchens, Bars, and Offices
The TH‑E30 is purpose‑built for environments where space is at a premium but ice quality cannot be compromised. Its compact, self‑contained design fits under standard counters in bars, small restaurant kitchens, and office breakrooms.
Small Cafes & Coffee Shops: Iced lattes, americanos, and cold brew require consistent, clear cube ice. The TH‑E30 provides reliable daily output for a neighborhood cafe serving 100–200 drinks per day.
Neighborhood Bars & Pubs: Keep ice directly under the bartender’s station. Cube ice is the workhorse of the cocktail well—scoop cleanly, chill effectively, and present beautifully.
Office Breakrooms & Co‑Working Spaces: Upgrade from a noisy portable ice maker to a plumbed commercial unit that produces clear, professional cube ice without constant refilling.
Small Restaurants & Bistros: Handle dinner service with reliable, on‑demand ice without sacrificing valuable kitchen floor space.
When selecting a commercial undercounter ice machine, always choose a model with slightly higher capacity than your estimated daily requirement to avoid shortages during peak times. For larger operations requiring more than 150 lbs of ice per day, consider Naixer’s TH‑150B or TH‑320C models.
