icemaker

Frozen water dispenser

An icemaker is a device that produces ice, either as a standalone appliance or as a component built into a refrigerator.

Commercial icemakers supply restaurants and bars; household ones fill a bin with cubes automatically: The icemaker broke, so we're using trays again.
