How much does ice maker repair cost?
The visit is $99 and it comes off the bill if you go ahead with the repair on the same visit. The repair is quoted in writing first.
My ice maker is slow. Is that the module?
Usually not, and that is the part most often replaced for nothing. Slow production is normally water pressure, the inlet valve or the harvest cycle — all cheaper, and all worth checking first.
The cubes are hollow or small.
That is a water problem, not a cooling problem: low supply pressure, a part-closed valve, or a filter nobody has changed. Often the cheapest repair we do.
The bin fills with one solid block.
The machine is making ice and not stopping, or the ice is melting and refreezing. The bin level sensor and the door seal are the two places to look, in that order.
Do I need the water filter changed?
If it has been more than six months, probably. On Los Angeles water scale builds in the inlet valve and the harvest circuit, and a lot of slow-production calls are maintenance rather than a fault. We will say so when that is all it is.
My in-door ice maker keeps freezing up.
Common on French-door refrigerators. It is normally the seal around the ice compartment or the defrost circuit letting warm air in, rather than the maker itself.
Can you work on plumbed undercounter machines?
Yes, including the drain pump and the supply side. An undercounter machine is closer to commercial equipment than to a refrigerator, and it is serviced that way.
Is it worth repairing?
On a built-in or undercounter machine, almost always — the cutout and the plumbing are sized to that unit. On an in-door maker the module is inexpensive and the repair is quick.
What warranty do you give?
Parts and labour for up to 365 days depending on the part.
Which areas do you cover?
