Common Crathco Commercial Slushy & Slush Machine Problems
Recognize the symptom? Call us — we'll tell you what's wrong before sending a truck.
Bowl not freezing or stays liquid
Refrigeration fault, low charge, condenser fan or controller. We test pressures before we replace anything.
Auger not turning or stalling
Motor, gearbox or drive coupling failure. We test the motor under load instead of guessing.
Product too hard or too watery
Brix calibration, mix ratio, thermostat or scraper-blade wear. Usually fixable in one visit.
Leaking from the bowl base
Failed seal kit, cracked bowl, worn scraper bushing or loose hardware. Common wear item — we keep seal kits on the van.
Loud grinding or knocking sound
Worn gearbox, failing scraper blade or loose drive assembly. Usually a sign of imminent failure if ignored.
Control panel not responding
Board failure, sensor fault or power-supply issue. We diagnose to the component, not just swap the board.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work on granita machines too?+
Yes. Granita machines are mechanically similar to slushy machines and we service the same component categories.
How often should a slushy machine be serviced?+
Daily cleaning is on you. A professional inspection and seal-kit refresh every 6–12 months prevents most major failures. We can quote a preventive visit.
Can you tune the freeze point or thickness?+
Yes. We calibrate the thermostat or controller to your product spec. Some machines also need brix adjustment on the syrup feed.
Do you supply scraper blades and seal kits?+
Yes. We stock seal kits and scraper blades for the most common Taylor, Bunn and Crathco models.
Will you come out evenings or weekends?+
We operate 7am–9pm, seven days. Slushy calls on Friday and Saturday are routed faster because the lost revenue per hour is highest then.
