Do you work on all Elmeco models?
We repair current and older Elmeco models. Some discontinued parts can be hard to find; if that is the case for your model, we tell you before you pay for a repair.
Should I repair or replace my frozen drink/slushie machine?
A frozen drink/slushie machine typically lasts about 8 to 15 years. If yours is well inside that range and the repair costs less than half the price of a new one, repairing usually makes sense. Near the end of its life, or when the repair costs more than half of a replacement, replacing is often the better value. We give you an honest opinion either way.
