Ice Machine Overflowing in Bryanston Ext 3
Ice Machine Overflowing in Bryanston Ext 3, Johannesburg. Water overflows the sump or bin during operation.
Urgency for this fault is normally same-day. Call-outs are run from the central Johannesburg base, which keeps attendance windows short for kitchens in the northern and central suburbs.
The ice plant here is mostly estate clubhouses, guest houses, small restaurants and private bars, so the work is weighted towards undercounter and small modular machines. Filtration sized on measured hardness and throughput is the cheapest protection available for an ice machine's water circuit and pump.
We diagnose in order of likelihood rather than replacing parts speculatively: test inlet valve shut-off with power removed, then clean and test float or probe, then clear overflow and drain lines.
