  • Improve ventilation: Ensure the Arktic ice maker has proper clearance and is not installed in a confined, hot space.
  • Replace water filter: If equipped, install a new filter cartridge to restore proper flow.
  • Monitor cycles: If production remains low after cleaning and filter replacement, a technician should check system pressures and compressor performance.
