Perlick Ice Maker Repair in Houses, Townhomes and Condos
We are independent: not a Perlick service center, and not authorized by Perlick. If your ice maker is still inside the Perlick 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 Perlick builds its ice makers
A Perlick undercounter ice maker makes clear ice, and like most clear-ice machines it freezes the water gradually as it circulates, so dissolved minerals stay behind in the leftover water rather than ending up in the cube. That works well, but those minerals have to go somewhere, and scale slowly builds on the freezing surfaces until harvest slows and eventually stops. Getting rid of melt and rinse water is just as important. Depending on the model, water leaves by gravity or through a small pump, and a blockage in that path leaves water standing in the bin or seeping onto the cabinet floor. Outdoor units add a third possibility: a supply line, valve or drain that froze on a cold night. We check water in, water out and scale before touching the refrigeration side.
Parts that tend to fail on Perlick ice makers
- Drain pump failed, water standing in the bin
- Scale slowing the freeze and harvest
- Inlet valve stuck closed
- Outdoor supply or drain frozen
- Warm bin melting cubes together

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.
Not necessarily. The water line, valve or drain may have frozen, which stops production. Once it thaws, it may start again, but ice can also crack a valve or fitting. We check the lines and valve before looking at anything else.
Making clear ice means the minerals are left in the water instead of in the cube, and they settle on the parts that do the freezing. Cleaning on the schedule in the manual keeps production up. If it stays slow after cleaning, we test further.
