How we repair your Outdoor Ice Maker
An outdoor ice maker is a weather-rated undercounter unit for patios and outdoor kitchens that makes and stores ice despite heat and humidity. Every outdoor ice maker combines a water inlet valve, a freezing surface or mold, a harvest system and sensors that tell it when the bin is full. A technician checks water supply and pressure, scale buildup and sensor operation before testing the refrigeration side.
