Possible Causes

Bin temperature too warm, poor bin insulation, infrequent ice usage causing partial melting and refreezing, warm air infiltration from door gasket leak

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Unplug the unit before inspecting gaskets or bin components.

Steps to reduce clumping:

  • Increase usage or discard old ice: Use ice more frequently or discard old ice that has partially melted.
  • Check bin temperature: Ensure the bin area is being cooled properly; clean condenser and verify fan operation.
  • Inspect door gasket: Check the door or lid gasket for gaps, tears, or dirt. Clean and replace if it does not seal properly.
  • Stir ice: Periodically break up ice clumps manually to improve airflow and reduce bridging.
