Hoshizaki Ice Maker Repair in Houses, Townhomes and Condos
We are independent: not a Hoshizaki service center, and not authorized by Hoshizaki. If your ice maker is still inside the Hoshizaki warranty, go to the manufacturer first. Once it's past that coverage, a model number in your booking lets us source parts ahead of the visit.
How an Ice Maker Repair Visit Works
Book the Visit
Call or use the form. Name the make and describe the fault; a model number, if handy, speeds up parts.
Find the Fault
At your place, the technician checks the appliance and whatever feeds it (power, water, drain, gas or venting) until the cause is clear.
Approve the Price
You get a plain explanation and a price for the repair. The work starts only if you say yes.
Fix and Check
The new part is fitted and the appliance is run through a cycle, so you can see it working.
How Hoshizaki builds its ice makers
Inside a KM cuber, a pump sprays water upward into rows of cups on a stainless evaporator plate, and the ice forms there, upside down. A thermistor on the evaporator outlet tells the board when a batch is ready. Then harvest begins: hot gas from the compressor warms the plate from inside while fresh water flows across its back, and the crescents drop into the bin. A float in the reservoir says when there is enough water to start freezing, and a bin control halts production once the ice reaches it. When output falls or cubes look wrong, the usual findings are scale on the plate and spray nozzles, a float stuck with slime, or a pump that has lost pressure. Flakers and cubelet machines are built differently, around a freezing cylinder and an auger.
Parts that tend to fail on Hoshizaki ice makers

Hoshizaki Ice Maker Repair Questions
The questions that come up most often. Anything not covered here, ask us when you call, or add it to the booking form's notes field.
Have a different question?
Tell us what make it is and what's going wrong. A few things can be settled over the phone, and anything else gets looked at during the visit.
Count the beeps or flashes in each sequence and note which light is lit. The board uses those patterns to report what it detected, such as a freeze or harvest timeout. Give us the pattern when you book; we use it as a lead and confirm by testing.
Follow the interval in the manual as a minimum, and shorten it for a hot, dusty or very busy location. A full cleaning includes descaling and sanitizing the water circuit, cleaning the evaporator and float, and washing the bin.
