Repair or Replace?

Built in refrigerator ice makers are almost always worth repairing since the fridge itself is fine. Stand alone ice machines are usually worth repairing when they are under seven to ten years old. Our technician gives you an honest opinion before any work starts.

Ice Maker Repair Questions Answered

Quick answers to what Des Moines homeowners ask most.

Why is my refrigerator ice maker not producing any ice at all?
The most common cause is a frozen water line inside the freezer housing or a failed water inlet valve that cuts off the water supply. It can also be caused by a misaligned shut-off arm, low water pressure from your home supply line, or a failing modular ice mold assembly.
Why are my ice cubes coming out small, hollow, or misshapen?
Small or hollow cubes mean the ice mold is not receiving enough water during the filling cycle. Check if your home water filter is clogged and restricting flow, or if the water pressure to the refrigerator valve has dropped below the minimum requirement of 20 PSI.
What causes an ice maker to leak water into the ice bucket or freezer shelf?
Leaking occurs when the water alignment tube misses the fill cup, the water inlet valve fails to close completely, or the ice mold itself cracks. If the valve sticks open, water overflows the assembly, runs down into the bucket, and freezes into a solid block of ice.
Why does my ice maker produce cubes that taste or smell bad?
Bad-tasting ice is usually caused by an expired refrigerator water filter that is no longer removing chlorine and sediment, or old food odors migrating from the fresh food section. Replacing the filter every six months and cleaning the ice bin regularly fixes this issue.
