What Springdale Owners Should Know
Most ice maker calls in Springdale 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.
Arkansas has no separate appliance repair license, and household appliances are listed as exempt equipment under the state HVACR licensing law, though exempt work must still meet HVACR rules and any local permit and inspection requirements.

In Arkansas, you can check a license with the Arkansas Department of Health Protective Health Codes licensee search (plumbing and gas fitter licenses) or report a problem to the Arkansas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
