The most common fault on undercounter machines is not a fault at all: enclosed cabinetry starving the condenser of air. On undercounter ice machines in Midrand we see this fault regularly, usually alongside overdue descaling.

Ice Machine Maintenance Contracts normally resolves it. Standard visits are two to four hours per machine on a fixed schedule.

Sometimes — where the fault is a water-side problem the machine can often be run on reduced output until parts arrive. Where a compressor or leak is involved we advise buying in bagged ice while the repair is completed.
