What Gainesville Owners Should Know
Most ice maker calls in Gainesville 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.
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, §1301.053 (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.
Questions to Ask a Gainesville Repair Technician
- Is your company licensed where my state requires it, and insured?
- What is the service call or diagnostic fee, and is it applied to the repair?
- Will you check the water supply, filter and inlet valve before replacing the ice maker?
