What Miami-Dade County does
to an ice maker.

Where ice makers sit in Miami-Dade County: on the water, tower living, seasonal houses.

All of Miami / South Florida

On the water

When a storm surge floods a ground-floor kitchen or a pool bar, an ice maker that stood in seawater is not restarted: salt left in its pump, wiring and control can short weeks later, so it stays unplugged and closed off at its valve until it has been opened and checked.

Tower living

Condo kitchens often feed the door ice maker through a long plastic tube run from the sink cabinet behind the cabinetry, and a unit pushed back after cleaning can crush that tube, so the ice slows down long before anything else in the kitchen gives a sign.

Seasonal houses

Ice left in a bin through weeks in an empty house takes on every smell in the freezer and fuses into one block, so on arrival the bin is emptied and washed and the first few harvests are thrown away before anyone puts that ice in a glass.

Aventura

High-rise condos filled by snowbirds, whose ice makers stay idle with the supply valve shut through the hot months and wake up again in November, when a dried-out valve, a stale filter and a bin that smells of summer are the usual finds.

Bal Harbour

Bal Harbour was incorporated on August 14, 1946, on land a Detroit company had held since the 1920s.

Brickell

Glass towers full of leased units whose ice makers are the property of absentee owners, building rules often ask for the water to be shut off while the unit sits empty, and a management company books the repair around the freight elevator.

Coconut Grove

Leafy bayside lanes where a rented cottage may still have a freezer tray ice maker from decades ago, while the large house next door runs an outdoor bar unit in the salty breeze.

Coral Gables

Period houses with remodeled kitchens, where an undercounter ice maker at the bar sits beside the original plumbing, and every hurricane season means deciding whether to empty the bin and close the supply before the family leaves.

Golden Beach

NMB Water lists Golden Beach among the communities it typically supplies with water drawn from the Biscayne and Floridan aquifers.

Key Biscayne

A barrier island whose part-year residents leave their ice makers dry and valved off through the summer, and after an evacuation order nobody should restart one until it is known whether seawater reached the kitchen.

Miami Beach

Miami Beach sits on natural and man-made barrier islands between the Atlantic and Biscayne Bay, and annual king tides flood some of its streets.

Pinecrest

Ranch-style houses on one-acre lots, built through the 1950s and 1960s, set Pinecrest's leafy residential character.

Sunny Isles Beach

At the 2020 census Sunny Isles Beach was the most densely populated incorporated place in the country outside the New York City area.
