Hoshizaki Ice Maker Rental for Bars, Restaurants & Hospitality

Rental terms at a glance

Minimum term

6 months, on every piece of equipment we rent.

After the minimum term

The agreement rolls on month to month. You are not tied into a second fixed term, and you can end it at any point with one month’s notice.

Included in the price

The machine, delivery, professional installation by our own engineers, staff training, and a continual parts and labour warranty. Breakdown callouts cost nothing for the whole term — no excess, and no cap on the number of visits.

Not included

Detergent, rinse aid and water-softener salt. Chemicals are consumables, so you budget for those separately.

Payments

A fixed monthly amount, quoted excluding VAT. Rental is an operating expense, so payments are normally 100% tax deductible against your profits in the year you pay them. Confirm your own position with your accountant.

Is there a minimum rental term?

Yes — 6 months, and it is the same on every machine we rent, from a £25-a-month bottle cooler to a £240-a-month pass-through dishwasher. You get one fixed monthly payment covering the machine, its installation and every repair for the full term.

What happens at the end of the 6 months?

It rolls on month to month. There is no second fixed term to sign and nothing renews automatically for another six — once the minimum term is served you carry on paying monthly for as long as you want the machine, and you end the agreement whenever it suits you by giving one month’s notice.

What happens if the machine breaks down?

You call us and one of our engineers attends. There is no callout charge, no excess and no limit on visits — parts and labour are included for as long as you rent the machine. That cover is the reason a rental costs more per year than owning outright: the repair risk sits with us, not you.
