What are the usage costs on the 1000 machine? Should I just double the numbers from the 500 machine?
The electrical usage costs on the 1000 machine are slightly more than the number from the 500 machine. Keep in mind that the 100 ice machine operates on 220 volts which reduces the amperage. We have calculated an electricity cost to produce 8 lbs of ice to be $0.04 with the 500 series machine. It is estimated that the cost to produce 8 lbs of ice with the 100 series machine to be $0.05. The water usage cost would be the same as the 500 series for each 8 lbs of ice produced which is approximately $0.005. Consequently, the utility cost to produce 8 lbs of ice with the 500 series machine is about 4.5 cents and the utility cost to produce 8 lbs with the 1000 series is about 5.5 cents. The rolled bag cost is about 6.5 cents for the 8 lbs bag.

These features can be accomplished with a custom control module. The cost of each unit would change based on the programming and hardware costs required by the new control system specification.
