FAQ Mr. Funslush

What is Mr. Funslush and how is it sold?

Mr. Funslush is a slush ice drink, often simply called "slush". The drink is made quickly and easily using ready-made flavor concentrates that are mixed with fresh, potable tap water. Once the mixture is added to the machine, the Mr. Funslush slush machine produces ready-to-sell slush in about one hour. Slush drinks are typically served in various flavors and are popular all over Finland as colorful and refreshing treats, especially in indoor playgrounds, events, movie theaters, and amusement parks. Each serving is typically offered in a transparent plastic cup with a spoon-straw.

Mr. Funslush is our #1 concept for two main reasons:

Easy to sell:

Making slush is simple and does not require culinary skills. Once the machine is installed and the drink mix is prepared according to the instructions, you just wait for the cash register to ring.

Attractive profit margin:

Mr. Funslush sales can yield an impressive profit margin of up to 78%, thanks to favorable ingredient costs.

We provide everything you need for Mr. Funslush production, machine maintenance, and serving. Read more in the article below or explore the Mr. Funslush concept, supplies, and machine options on our website.


Should I buy or rent the equipment?

Is your business open year-round or only seasonally (e.g. during the summer)? We offer several models of Mr. Funslush machines with 2 or 3 tanks, available both for rental and purchase. Let us know your needs, and we will help you find the right solution for your business.

Purchase:

Buying a new machine is a long-term investment. We sell V-Air Smart and Freazy slush machines with a 12-month warranty. When you buy from us, you’re guaranteed access to original spare parts and maintenance services even after the warranty period ends.

Rental:

 You can also rent a Mr. Funslush machine with a 36-month rental contract (billed quarterly). All maintenance is included — if service is needed, we will deliver a replacement machine while yours is being repaired, ensuring continuous operation.

Seasonal rental:

If your business only operates during the summer, a 6-month seasonal rental may be your best option. Seasonal rental machines are Classic or NG models. Rental is charged in two installments: a booking fee at reservation and the remainder at delivery. Please note that seasonal machines are limited, so reserve early (January–February).

NOTE: All rental customers commit to purchasing raw materials and supplies from Nic Finland Oy.

How do I prepare the drink mixture?

The drink mixture is carefully measured in a separate container (1 part concentrate to 5 parts water). After mixing, pour the mixture into the machine’s tank. Start the machine and set it to cooling mode — the machine takes care of the rest. The slush is ready for serving in approximately 50–60 minutes.


How do I properly maintain the machine?

Mr. Funslush machines can serve slush for seven (7) consecutive days, provided proper cooling and slush functions are used. After 7 days, machine parts must be washed and tanks sanitized.

Cleaning process:

  • Wash parts by hand using a brush and cleaning wipes. Dishwashers are not allowed.
  • Apply food-grade lubricant to the silicone seals and dispensing valves before reassembling.
  • Sanitize the machine by filling tanks with sanitizing solution (prepared separately) and let sit for 5–10 minutes per tank. Drain into a separate container and repeat for all tanks.
  • Rinse all tanks thoroughly using the same method (without waiting time).
  • You can then prepare a new slush mixture and, if desired, change flavors.
 

Do I need a water connection for the slush machine?

No direct water connection is needed. Simply place the machine on a sturdy countertop and connect it to a standard power outlet. Tanks are filled manually using a container and by lifting the tank lid. Draining is done by opening the dispensing valve. Having a water point nearby will make cleaning easier.


How much ventilation space does the machine require?

Your slush machine must be placed at a proper distance from walls and other appliances, including other slush machines. Please refer to your machine's manual or ask our staff for guidance. If you want to place multiple machines side-by-side or have limited space, we recommend the V-Air model due to its vertical air intake (from the bottom instead of the sides).

What should I do if my machine requires service?

All our rental machines are covered by a maintenance agreement, ensuring you always have a functioning unit. If your machine needs service, consult the user manual and troubleshooting guide provided with the machine. If the issue remains unresolved, don’t hesitate to contact our service team, we are always here to help. Purchased machines have a 12-month manufacturer's warranty, and we offer spare parts and service even after the warranty period.
