What New Brunswick Owners Should Know
Most ice maker calls in New Brunswick 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.
New Jersey has no license specific to appliance repair; plumbing work is reserved to state-licensed master plumbers, and gas piping work on the customer side of the meter falls under HVACR contractor licensing, both overseen by boards in the Division of Consumer Affairs.
