Unlike manufacturer market share, these counts only describe how many eligible model entries occur in the dataset. Model counts are not sales, stock listings or endorsements.
Counts of normalized EPA catalog entries by equipment category. Categories are EPA source labels; no market share is implied.
| EPA equipment type | Model entries | Share of entries |
|---|---|---|
| Ice Making Head | 310 | 49.4% |
| Self Contained Unit | 257 | 40.9% |
| Remote Condensing Unit | 61 | 9.7% |
Each row contains at least five models with the same equipment type, ice type and rated daily capacity band. Energy columns show kilowatt-hours per 100 lb of produced ice; water is potable US gallons per 100 lb. P25 and P75 indicate the lower and upper quartiles of the ratings in that cohort, not savings guarantees.

This counts model entries, not manufacturers' sales or reliability. Brand spelling is preserved from EPA source data and corporate groups are not merged. Displaying a brand is not a paid promotion.

ENERGY STAR ratings are measurements under specified testing conditions, not actual invoices. Differences within a cohort can reflect product design, certification rules or dataset composition. Check current certification, installation requirements and local market availability before purchasing.
