WHY AUSTIN CHOOSES OUR ICE MAKER REPAIR:

SCOTSMAN UNDER-COUNTER ICE MACHINE: FIXING CONSTANT NOISE & PUMP ISSUES

The root cause was a malfunctioning Water Pressure Switch. The client reported that the ice machine had become extremely noisy, with a constant humming sound that never stopped. Upon diagnostic (as shown in the photo), we discovered that the drain pump was running continuously, even when the reservoir was empty. The pressure switch was stuck in the "closed" position, falsely signaling the pump to run 24/7. This not only created excessive noise but put the pump at high risk of burning out due to dry running.
The Solution To restore quiet and efficient operation, we performed the following:
  1. Genuine Parts: Installed a new original Scotsman OEM pressure switch to ensure precise water level sensing and correct pump cycling.
  2. Professional Installation: We disassembled the lower control housing, replaced the faulty switch, and carefully calibrated the pressure tube to ensure no air leaks were affecting the sensor readings.
  3. Testing: Verified the "auto-off" function of the drain pump. The machine now only engages the pump when necessary, operating at factory-quiet decibel levels.
The Result The appliance is now back to factory-standard performance. Our Austin homeowner saved the cost of a full drain pump replacement and regained a quiet kitchen environment.

SCOTSMAN UNDER-COUNTER ICE MACHINE: PROFESSIONAL CLEANING & PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE

The Problem: The client noticed that their high-end Scotsman ice machine had significantly slowed down its ice production. The cubes were coming out smaller than usual, slightly cloudy, and there was a noticeable "vinegar" odor coming from the bin. Upon inspection, I found heavy mineral scale buildup on the evaporator plate and slime mold in the water distribution system.
The Solution: To restore the machine to peak performance and ensure sanitary ice production, I performed a comprehensive professional maintenance service:
  1. Deep Descaling: I used a specialized Scotsman-approved nickel-safe scale remover to dissolve heavy calcium and mineral deposits from the evaporator. This restores efficient heat transfer and ensures full-sized, crystal-clear cubes.
  2. Sanitization: The entire water circuit, including the reservoir, distribution tubes, and the storage bin, was treated with a professional-grade sanitizer to eliminate bacteria and mold growth.
  3. Component Inspection: I cleaned the condenser coils to prevent the compressor from overheating and checked the water sensors for accuracy. I also inspected the spray bar for any clogged nozzles that were causing malformed ice.
  4. System Flush: Performed a triple-flush of the system to ensure no cleaning agents remained, followed by a harvest cycle test to verify timing and ice quality.
The Result: The appliance is now back to factory-standard performance. The ice production rate has returned to 100% capacity, and the cubes are once again crystal clear and odorless. By performing this maintenance now, the Austin homeowner avoided a potential water pump failure and extended the lifespan of their premium Scotsman unit.
The root cause was a mechanical failure of the Ice Ejector Assembly. The internal gears of the ice maker became stripped, preventing the plastic fingers from pushing the ice cubes out of the mold. Because the previous batch of ice remained in the tray, the water inlet valve would still activate for the next cycle, causing water to overflow every time. This led to ice buildup throughout the freezer and water leaking down into the refrigerator compartment.
The Solution To ensure long-term reliability and stop the leaking, we performed the following:
  1. Genuine Parts: We replaced the entire faulty unit with a brand-new KitchenAid OEM ice maker assembly. Replacing the complete module is the most cost-effective way to fix both the mechanical drive and the heating element simultaneously.
  2. Professional Installation: We removed the ice-blocked assembly, cleared the frozen fill tube, and installed the new unit. We also inspected the water shut-off timing to ensure no further overflowing would occur.
  3. Testing: Forced a harvest cycle to confirm the ejector arm was moving freely and verified the precise water fill level.
The Result The appliance is now back to factory-standard performance. The Austin homeowner now has a reliable ice supply and, most importantly, a dry, leak-free refrigerator.
A broken ice maker can be a major frustration, especially during the hot Austin summer. Whether you have a built-in unit in your French Door refrigerator or a high-end dedicated under-counter ice machine, UniqPro Appliance provides expert diagnostics and fast repairs. We specialize in both residential and premium ice-making systems, ensuring you always have a steady supply of clear ice.
No Ice Production: Often caused by a failed water inlet valve, a clogged filter, or a faulty mold assembly.
Ice Maker Leaking: Typically a result of a cracked water line, a misaligned fill tube, or a blocked drain in under-counter models.
Small or Malformed Cubes: Often points to low water pressure, a partially clogged internal filter, or scale buildup.
Ice Not Ejecting: Usually caused by a failed ejector motor, a broken stripper arm, or a faulty heating element in the mold.
Loud Noises During Harvest: This can indicate a struggling auger motor or worn-out bearings in the ice crusher assembly.

Heating element went out in our dryer. Uniqpro technician Dimitri was wonderful. He also found that white thing in the middle was very worn. He gave the entire dryer a checkup! He replaced the white thing at cost of the part. Very clean, affordable, professional. Fast response with accurate quote.

We will be calling Dimitri again.

I’ve got respond in 10 min after I post my order and the tech was in my house next day. He gave me very detailed evaluation what should be repair for very reasonable price, without upselling! He fixed ice maker in my Samsung fridge, replaced a water filter and in addition for the same price cleaned vacuumed condenser coil, fan, etc.

GREAT 5 STAR SERVICE! Thank you.

Dmitri helped us with very short notice. He efficiently and expertly repaired our Asko washing machine. I was expecting to wait weeks to get in with a certified Asko repair person however he was very familiar with Asko and better than anyone we have. He is smart, knowledgeable and very kind.His price was extremely fair, almost too little for what the work he did.

Highly recommend!

I plan on using Dimitri whenever I need an appliance repair moving forward. He's an experienced and very sweet young man who is starting his own repair business and he responded quickly to my Yelp inquiry. He was at my home within 2 hours to replace the faulty oven ignition in my 5 year old Samsung range. He was in and out in just an hour, and again he was very kind and his pricing was very reasonable. Thanks Dimitri!
