What St. Augustine's climate means for your Hoshizaki ice machine
Living on the First Coast means months of heat and heavy humidity — and your Hoshizaki ice machine works against both. The coastal air's salt content works on condenser coils and exposed metal, and summer heat alone makes the compressor run longer cycles to keep up. That's why a St. Augustine visit includes a check of the climate-worn parts, not just the one you called about.
