Why Ice Machines Slow Down or Stop

Scale and cleaningMinerals in the water coat the freezing plate or grid and the water system, which slows ice production and can stop harvest. Many slow-machine calls start with a cleaning cycle.
Water supply and valveA partly closed supply valve, a kinked line or a failed inlet valve leaves the machine short of water and making thin or no ice.
Controls and sensorsBin sensors, thermistors and the control board decide when to make ice and when the bin is full. A sensor fault can make a machine stop with an empty bin.

Ice Machine Problems Worth a Call

  • No ice, or far less ice than it used to make
  • Loud noises during harvest or from the pump
  • Machine runs constantly but the bin stays low
  • Blinking light or error code

Inside an Ice Machine Repair Visit

ControlsCodes and blinking lights are read and the control is tested once the water, drain and airflow have been ruled out.
Condenser and grilleThe condenser behind the front grille is cleaned, since built-in machines rely on front airflow to shed heat.
Scale and cleaningThe freezing plate or grid and the water system are inspected for scale. A cleaning or descaling cycle is run with the cleaner the manufacturer specifies.

Ice Machine Repair FAQs: Northern Cambria, PA

Do you repair countertop nugget ice makers?
Some technicians work on countertop nugget ice makers; many do not, because the units are inexpensive compared with a service call. Ask when you call, and compare the quote with the price of a new unit.
Why is water coming from my ice machine?
Most leaks come from the drain: a clogged or kinked drain line, a failed drain pump or a drain that is not sloped correctly. Supply line connections are the next place to look.
Why did my ice machine stop making ice?
The usual causes are a closed or restricted water supply, heavy scale on the freezing plate or water system, a drain or pump problem, a dirty condenser, a room that is too hot or too cold for the machine, or a failed control. A technician checks each in order.
Why is my ice cloudy?
Clear-ice machines depend on clean water flowing evenly over the freezing surface. Scale, a dirty water system or low water flow can make ice cloudy or soft, so cleaning is usually the first step.
