Common Ice Machine Problems We Solve

Ice machines are complex pieces of equipment that can experience a variety of issues. Our skilled technicians are trained to quickly identify the root cause of any problem and implement an effective solution. We frequently resolve issues such as:

•  No Ice Production: The most critical failure, where the machine runs but produces no ice. This can be caused by issues with the water supply, ambient temperature, or a failed internal component.
•  Low Ice Production: If your machine is making ice but not enough to keep up with demand, it could be due to a dirty condenser, a clogged water filter, or incorrect temperature settings.
•  Strange Noises: Grinding, squealing, or rattling sounds often indicate a problem with the motor, compressor, or water pump. Ignoring these noises can lead to more significant and costly damage.
•  Water Leaks: Puddles around your unit can be caused by a cracked water line, a clogged drain, or a malfunctioning inlet valve. Leaks not only waste water but also create hazardous slip-and-fall conditions.
•  Poor Ice Quality: Ice that is cloudy, soft, or has a bad taste or odor is often a sign of a dirty machine or a failing water filter. This can be a health concern and is unappealing to customers.
•  Machine Won't Turn On: A complete power failure can be due to an electrical issue, a tripped safety switch, or a major component failure within the unit.

Our goal is to perform lasting repairs on the first visit, minimizing your downtime and getting your operations back to normal as quickly as possible.

Preventative Maintenance and Cleaning

The single best way to avoid unexpected breakdowns and ensure the quality of your ice is through regular, professional maintenance. Because ice is considered a food product by health departments, proper sanitation is non-negotiable. Our maintenance service is more than just a quick wipe-down; it's a thorough process that includes:

•  Complete Sanitation: We disassemble and meticulously clean and sanitize all components that come into contact with water and ice, eliminating mold, slime, and bacteria buildup.
•  Filter Changes: We replace water filters to ensure your ice is clean, clear, and free of unpleasant tastes and odors. This also prevents mineral scale from damaging internal components.
•  System Inspection: We inspect the entire Refrigeration system, check electrical connections, clean condenser coils, and verify that all parts are functioning correctly.

Best of all, Schiller Services does not believe in locking you into a contract. We are so confident in the quality of our work that we know you'll call us back.
