Ice Maker repair in Largo & Kettering
Nearly every refrigerator in the newer Largo, Kettering and Lake Arbor houses has an ice maker, and many have a through-the-door dispenser. The water line usually comes up through the floor from a basement or crawl space, or across from the sink cabinet in a townhouse. In apartments and condos, the supply valve may sit behind an access panel or inside the sink base, and a building water shutdown can leave air in the line.
How we trace a missing ice harvest
We confirm the freezer is cold enough, because most ice makers will not cycle above about 15 degrees. Then we check the water path: the shutoff, the line behind the fridge, the filter and the inlet valve, which is tested for voltage and flow. A fill tube iced solid suggests a leaking valve or a warm draft. If water arrives but no ice drops, the module's motor, thermostat and shutoff arm or sensor are tested. A dispenser that will not deliver gets its auger motor and door flap checked.
After a water shutoff or filter change
A new filter or a building water shutdown traps air in the line, so the first few harvests can be small or skip. Run a few glasses through the dispenser to purge it. If ice still stops, the inlet valve is the next suspect.

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.
Usually the inlet valve is not closing fully, or the refrigerator is not level so water spills over the mold. A cracked fill cup or a partly frozen tube can do it too. We level the unit and test the valve's shutoff before replacing the ice maker.
