Follett 01147826 SafeCLEAN Plus Liquid Environmentally Responsible Ice Machine Cleaner (1 X 8 Oz Bottles)

Remove scale with a cleaner designed for Follett ice equipment

Follett SafeCLEAN Plus 01147826 is a Follett ice machine cleaner that gives operators a manufacturer-specified way to dissolve mineral scale in Follett ice machines and ice-and-water dispensers. Each order includes one 8-ounce bottle of concentrated SafeCLEAN Plus liquid, helping maintenance teams avoid improvised cleaners that may be ineffective or incompatible with the equipment. Order through IceMachinesPlus with qualifying free shipping and the 30-Day Price Match Guarantee.

SafeCLEAN Plus supports prescribed cleaning and descaling, but it won’t repair worn components or correct refrigeration problems.

Target the scale that works against your ice machine

Minerals left behind by incoming water can accumulate on evaporators, reservoirs, tubing, probes, and other water-contact components. As scale builds, it can restrict water flow, insulate heat-transfer surfaces, interfere with sensors, and contribute to declining ice production.

SafeCLEAN Plus is formulated to dissolve mineral scale during Follett’s prescribed cleaning process. Follett states that the formula provides three times the scale-dissolving power of ordinary citric acid and won’t harm rubber, plastic, or metal in Follett equipment when it’s mixed and used according to directions.

Using the Follett ice machine cleaner specified for the equipment keeps the maintenance process aligned with Follett’s instructions. Instead of experimenting with household acids or general-purpose chemicals, operators get a concentrated cleaner intended for the materials and cleaning procedures used in Follett ice equipment.

Follett also identifies SafeCLEAN Plus for use in its NSF-approved cleaning procedure for Follett ice machines and ice-and-water dispensers.

Confirm these details before ordering

Follow the machine manual, not a universal recipe

There isn’t one cleaning sequence that applies to every Follett machine. Equipment families differ in cleaner quantity, water temperature, access points, cleaning-cycle controls, rinsing, component removal, and sanitizing requirements.

Before opening the bottle:

• Record the complete ice-machine or dispenser model number.
• Find the current Follett operation or service manual for that model.
• Confirm that item 01147826 is an approved cleaner.
• Review the required cleaner quantity and water temperature.
• Discard stored ice when directed.
• Check which components must be removed or cleaned separately.
• Complete every prescribed rinse and sanitizing step.
• Keep the machine out of service until the procedure is finished.

Don’t assume that the entire bottle should be poured into the machine simply because it contains 8 ounces. Use only the quantity specified by the current product label and model-specific instructions.

The commercial ice-machine cleaning guide can help with general maintenance planning, but Follett’s instructions remain the controlling source for this product.

Keep cleaning and sanitizing separate

Cleaning removes mineral deposits, soil, and other buildup from equipment surfaces. Sanitizing reduces microorganisms on properly cleaned surfaces. One step doesn’t automatically complete the other.

SafeCLEAN Plus is sold as a liquid ice-machine cleaner and descaler. Some Follett procedures require additional sanitizing steps or a separate approved sanitizer after cleaning. Follow the exact sequence in the machine manual before returning the equipment to service.

Handle the concentrated cleaner carefully

Follett promotes SafeCLEAN Plus as biodegradable and phosphate-free, but environmentally responsible doesn’t mean the concentrate can be handled casually. The current Safety Data Sheet classifies the product as a skin and eye irritant and restricts it to professional users.

Before use:

• Read the bottle label and current SafeCLEAN Plus Safety Data Sheet.
• Wear protective gloves and safety glasses.
• Avoid direct skin and eye contact.
• Use the cleaner with adequate ventilation, and avoid breathing vapors.
• Don’t ingest the cleaner.
• Don’t mix it with bleach, vinegar, sanitizer, or another chemical.
• Wash exposed skin thoroughly after handling.
• Keep the container closed, upright, and away from incompatible materials.
• Follow the label, Safety Data Sheet, machine manual, and local requirements for cleanup and disposal.

If exposure occurs, follow the first-aid directions in the current Safety Data Sheet and seek professional medical guidance when required.

Follett ice machine cleaner FAQs

How do I clean my Follett ice machine?

Follow the current manual for the complete machine model. The procedure may require discarding ice, preparing SafeCLEAN Plus with a specified amount of hot water, activating a cleaning mode, cleaning removable components, completing multiple rinses, and performing a separate sanitizing step. Don’t start until you have the correct instructions and required protective equipment.

What is Follett SafeCLEAN Plus used for?

SafeCLEAN Plus is used to clean and dissolve mineral scale in Follett ice machines and ice-and-water dispensers. It supports routine descaling but doesn’t repair mechanical faults or replace every sanitizing procedure.

Can I run vinegar through my Follett ice machine?

No, not as an automatic substitute for approved Follett ice machine cleaner. Vinegar concentration and contact time can vary, and an improvised mixture may clean poorly, leave residue, or conflict with the equipment instructions. Use only products authorized by the current manual.

Can I use bleach to clean a Follett ice machine?

Don’t use bleach unless the exact current Follett manual expressly requires it. Several Follett manuals warn that bleach can damage the equipment. Never mix bleach with SafeCLEAN Plus or another cleaning chemical.

Does SafeCLEAN Plus sanitize a Follett ice machine?

Not necessarily. SafeCLEAN Plus cleans and removes mineral scale, while the machine’s procedure may require a separate sanitizing step or approved sanitizer. Complete every cleaning, rinsing, and sanitizing instruction before returning the equipment to service.

The Follett ice machine cleaner in item 01147826 is a practical purchase for operators who want the manufacturer’s designated liquid descaler on hand before scheduled maintenance or visible scale demands attention. Browse additional ice machine cleaners if the operation maintains equipment from multiple manufacturers or needs another package size.
