Around Aiea
Most ice maker calls in Aiea come down to the same handful of causes: water supply and pressure, a frozen fill tube, the water inlet valve, freezer temperature and the ice maker assembly itself.
Hawaii has no appliance repair license classification; the Contractors License Board's specialty classifications cover related trades such as plumbing (including fuel gas piping), refrigeration, and ventilating and air conditioning, and a contractor license applies to jobs that need a building, electrical or plumbing permit.

In Hawaii, you can check a license with the Hawaii DCCA Professional and Vocational Licensing public license search or report a problem to the Hawaii DCCA Regulated Industries Complaints Office (RICO).
