Possible Causes

Dirty condenser coil, weak condenser fan, high ambient temperature, partial refrigerant loss, scale buildup on evaporator reducing heat transfer

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug before cleaning coils or fans.

Improving ice production:

  • Clean condenser: Vacuum and brush the condenser coil to restore airflow.
  • Verify fan speed: Ensure the condenser fan spins freely and at full speed; replace if slow or noisy.
  • Lower ambient temperature: Move the unit to a cooler area within the recommended range.
  • Descale evaporator: Clean the evaporator plate to remove insulating mineral deposits.
  • Professional check: If performance remains poor, a partial refrigerant issue may exist and should be checked by a technician.
