Summit combines convenience and luxury to craft the BIM26IF, a drain-free icemaker with a customizable door front to best complete your space. Sized at just under 15" wide, the BIM26IF features a front-breathing design for built-in installation but also has a fully finished cabinet to allow freestanding use. Its petite 25" height makes this the optimal unit for use in kitchen islands, home bars, break rooms, RVs, and even boat kitchens. For a custom look, BIM26IF is designed to accept overlay panels (recommended panel size: 20 1/2" H x 14 15/16" W at 3/4" thickness). The door comes with an integrated stainless steel frame for easy installation that will blend into your space. Customers supply their own handle to match their design. A look inside the BIM26IF shows it can produce 15 lbs of crescent-shaped ice daily. The static manual defrost cooling system allows ice to stay solid longer. No drain or pump is required, offering more placement flexibility. For optimal convenience, Summit has pre-installed the connection hose. Plus, this icemaker comes with a removable ice bucket, ice scoop, and a holder for the scoop. With its large capacity, the BIM26 produces 15 lbs of crescent-shaped ice and stores up to 12 lbs. With its stainless steel door, black cabinet, and low maintenance design, the BIM26IF is a great way to finish any undercounter kitchen or home bar space and allows you to maintain an entire supply of ice with less waste. Alternative units are also available in different sizes, colors, and makes. Browse the full Summit product line to explore your options. Summit Appliance

Brand Background
About Summit Appliance
Summit Appliance, a division of Felix Storch, Inc., has operated out of the Bronx, New York since 1969, carving out a distinctive niche in specialty refrigeration that sets it apart from mainstream appliance manufacturers. The company's catalog on Fridge.com encompasses 907 active products, reflecting an unusually broad range of specialized cooling solutions. Rather than competing in the standard kitchen refrigerator market, Summit focuses heavily on commercial and specialty categories—the brand offers 161 upright freezers, 153 kegerators, 153 beverage centers, and 78 built-in units, alongside 161 french-door models. This distribution reveals a manufacturer deeply invested in foodservice, hospitality, and medical applications rather than typical residential needs. ADA-compliant models like the CT661WADA compact freezer demonstrate Summit's commitment to accessibility requirements, while units like the SBC15NKCSS kegerator highlight their strength in beverage dispensing equipment. With products carrying an average rating of 3.7 out of 5, Summit Appliance occupies the mainstream tier but serves markets that premium residential brands often overlook, making it a go-to source for undercounter installations, laboratory storage, and commercial beverage applications where specialized dimensions and compliance certifications matter most.
