Ice machines make clear ice by running water over a cold plate or grid, and that water leaves minerals behind, which is why cleaning and descaling come up on so many repair calls. We pull these listings from public business data, remove closed businesses, parts stores and unrelated trades, and put companies that mention ice machines and refrigeration at the top.

Local Notes for University Park
Most ice machine calls in University Park come down to water supply, scale, drains and pumps, dirty condensers and harvest controls.
Texas has no separate appliance repair license; under the Plumbing License Law, appliance dealers and their employees may install and service appliances (other than water heaters) without a plumbing license when hooking up to existing openings with a code-approved appliance connector, while other gas or water piping work generally requires a plumbing license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, ยง1301.053 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
In Texas, you can check a license with the Texas plumbing Public License Search or report a problem to the Texas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
