Local Ice Machine Repair Services in Spencer, IA

Ice machines face many common problems, from failing to get cold enough to faulty ice-level control boards. It requires a unique understanding and expertise to figure out exactly what is causing your ice machine’s issue. Some of the most common ice machine services and repairs we perform include the following:

• The Freezer Isn’t Cold Enough – In order for your ice machine to produce ice cubes, it must be between zero and five degrees Fahrenheit.
• Problems With the Freezer Door Switch – A broken door switch will cause your freezer to think the door is always open. When your freezer thinks the door is open, it will prevent your ice machine from dispensing ice cubes.
• Insufficient Water Supply – Your ice machine needs water to make ice cubes. When your inlet valve is cut off, your freezer may not get the water it needs.
• Low Water Pressure – Your ice maker needs at least 20 psi to make water. Your ice maker will stop working if your water pressure falls below this level.
• Faulty Ice Level Control Board – Your Ice level control board monitors the amount of ice stored in your ice tray. When it malfunctions, it will fail to send the signals to your ice maker that tells it to make new ice cubes.
• Clogged Water Filter – If your water filter becomes clogged, your ice maker may produce undersized cubes.
• Defective Mold Thermostat – Your ice maker has a mold thermostat that tells your appliance when ice cubes are done. If this thermostat is broken, it will stop the ice cube production cycle.
• Dispenses Misshapen Cubes – Small or oddly shaped ice cubes are usually caused by an underlying issue with water pressure. When your ice maker doesn’t get enough water, your ice cubes will form in unusual shapes and sizes.
• Water Leaking Inside the Freezer – If you find puddles inside your freezer, it can likely be traced back to a problem with your water inlet valve. This can also cause your ice maker to produce oversized cubes.
• Not Making Enough Ice – If you find your ice machine running out of ice cubes, the problem might be the exceptionally hot temperature surrounding your freezer. This can cause it to take longer for your ice machine to produce cubes.
• Not Making Any Ice – If warm water backs up into your water line from something like a dishwasher, it can halt the production of ice cubes.
