The Most Common Reasons Ice Machines Need Repairs
Many things can go wrong with your ice machine and affect its ability to work reliably. Your model may produce undersized ice cubes, or it might not work at all. The first step is to identify the source of your appliance’s problem, which typically requires a significant level of expertise. Fortunately, our ice machine repair experts will always gladly diagnose any appliance issue and provide a detailed and accurate estimate of what your ice machine repair will cost. The following are some common problems we encounter and resolve with ice machines:
- The freezer isn’t cold enough – If your freezer doesn’t stay between zero and five degrees Fahrenheit, your household or commercial ice machine cannot produce ice cubes.
- Problems with the freezer door switch – If the door switch breaks on your freezer, it may think the door is always open and stop your ice machine from dispensing ice.
- Insufficient water supply – A defective inlet valve may cut off your ice cube machine’s water supply and prevent your ice maker from getting the necessary water to produce ice cubes.
- Low water pressure – If your water pressure is under 20 psi, your ice machine might not get enough water to work correctly.
- Faulty ice level control board – When your ice tray is full, its ice level control board switches off your ice maker. When this control board breaks, the appliance will stop all new ice production.
- Clogged water filter – A clogged water filter can cut off your ice maker’s water supply. When water can’t flow through the filter, your ice machine doesn’t receive enough water to create full-size cubes.
- Defective mold thermostat – The mold thermostat notifies your ice maker when the new ice cubes are finished and ready to eject into your ice tray. When this thermostat fails, the automatic ice cube production cycle stops.
- Dispenses misshapen cubes – Any issue restricting your ice maker’s water supply may cause it to create oddly shaped or undersized ice cubes.
- Water leaking inside the freezer – A leaky water inlet valve can create puddles inside your freezer and typically result in larger ice cubes.
- Not making enough ice – If the environment around your ice machine is distinctively warmer, your ice maker may take longer to produce ice cubes.
- Not making any ice – Warm water influxes from dishwashers pumping water back into the cold-water line and other issues can make your ice maker halt its ice cube production.
