The water feeding an ice maker in Henderson is hard, and minerals settle inside the inlet valve, the fill tube and the ice mold. An ice maker that produces small, hollow or clumped cubes, or stops making ice altogether, may simply have a clogged filter or scale-restricted valve. Replace the refrigerator water filter on schedule, and if the ice maker still underperforms, the valve may need to be replaced. Water softeners help, but they need regular salt refills to keep working.
New homes in Cadence sometimes have ice makers that never worked properly from the start. The supply line behind the refrigerator may be kinked during installation, the water valve under the sink may have been left partly closed, or the ice maker may simply not be switched on. Checking these before booking can save a service call. If water reaches the unit but ice still does not form, the ice maker module or the freezer temperature may be the issue.
Freestanding undercounter ice makers are popular in Lake Las Vegas kitchens, wet bars and Mission Hills outdoor kitchens. These units need periodic descaling and cleaning according to the manufacturer's instructions, and in hard water that schedule should not be stretched. Outdoor ice machines also face summer heat and dust, which reduce production significantly. A clean condenser and shaded location make a measurable difference in how much ice they produce. Undercounter models with a drain pump also need that pump kept clear of scale flakes.
Leaks are another common complaint. A cracked fill tube, a loose supply connection or a drain line blocked by scale can leave water on the floor or inside the freezer. Shut off the water supply to the ice maker if you see a leak. Our technician tests the valve, module and drain components, explains the cause and price, and begins work only after you approve. Parts installed are covered for 90 days, and our labor for 30 days.
Hard water and ice makers: start here
The valley's tap water comes from the Colorado River by way of Lake Mead, and it is very hard: roughly 16 to 18 grains per gallon, or about 280 to 300 parts per million. The U.S. Geological Survey considers anything over 180 milligrams per liter very hard. For most of the house that means spotty glasses and crusty faucets. For an ice maker, it means minerals are deposited at every point where water stops, freezes or evaporates.
Scale shows up in a few predictable places. The small mesh screen inside the water inlet valve catches sediment and mineral flakes until the flow slows to a trickle. The refrigerator's water filter loads up faster than the calendar suggests. In standalone undercounter ice machines, a chalky white layer builds on the evaporator plate and in the water reservoir, which slows ice harvest and makes cubes cloudy, thin or hollow. Managing hard water is the single biggest factor in keeping an ice maker running here.
