Traulsen Ice Maker Repair in East Charlotte, NC

In East Charlotte ranch homes, the refrigerator's water line often comes up through the floor from the crawl space, sometimes from an old saddle valve tapped into a pipe below. Those valves can clog, partly close or start to drip, which slows ice production or leaves water under the kitchen floor. A clogged filter has a similar effect, producing small, hollow cubes. High demand creates its own jams. When the dispenser is used constantly and the door is opened often, cubes partly melt and refreeze into a solid block that stops the auger, especially in side-by-side models.

Make sure the water supply valve is fully open, replace the filter if it is overdue and check that the ice maker switch is on. Unplug the fridge before breaking up a jammed bucket. If a leak appears near the fridge, shut off the supply valve. Our technician tests the inlet valve, the ice maker module, the fill tube and the freezer temperature, then explains the cost before any repair.
