KitchenAid Ice and Freezer Features
How KitchenAid Ice Makers and Freezers Work
The undercounter ice makers need 30 to 120 psi of water pressure, and a dirty air-cooled condenser can cut output to little or no ice and overheat parts. Source: KitchenAid Product Help - Thin, Cloudy or Clumpy Ice - Freestanding Ice Maker
Common KitchenAid Ice Maker and Freezer Problems
- Small or hollow cubes. Keep the water filter current and check that the line behind the refrigerator is not kinked and the correct supply valve is installed, since low pressure causes small, hollow cubes. Source: KitchenAid - Refrigerator Ice Maker Troubleshooting
- Frost buildup in freezer. KitchenAid ties frost to air getting in, so it says to check that the door seals close fully and that the refrigerator is level. Source: KitchenAid - Troubleshoot Your Refrigerator's Possible Problems
The KitchenAid Ice Maker Test
If the ice maker has a reset button, press and hold it for a few seconds; if not, unplug the refrigerator for 1 minute and plug it back in. Source: KitchenAid Product Help - How to Turn the Ice Maker On and Off
KitchenAid Freezer Problems Worth a Service Call
- Water pooling under or inside the freezer
- Freezer is too cold and freezing everything solid

What Punta Gorda Owners Should Know
Most ice maker calls in Punta Gorda 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.
Florida's construction licensing guidance says that paid work such as installing a dishwasher connected to drinking water or replacing a water heater requires a licensed contractor, and that a local business tax receipt or certificate of competency may also apply; it does not describe a separate state appliance repair license.

In Florida, you can check a license with the DBPR Verify a License (MyFloridaLicense.com) or report a problem to the Florida Attorney General, Office of Citizen Services / Consumer Protection.
