Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Unplug the unit and turn off water before disconnecting any lines.

Troubleshooting steps:

  • Verify water supply: Confirm the shutoff valve is open and the supply line is not kinked.
  • Check for water in reservoir: Open the unit and see if the water reservoir fills at the start of a cycle. If not, inspect and clean the inlet valve screen and test the valve coil.
  • Listen for circulation pump: During operation, you should hear water flowing over the evaporator. If not, test and replace the circulation pump as needed.
  • Check for leaks: Inspect behind and under the unit for water leaks that might prevent proper filling.
  • Run a full cycle: After corrections, run a full cycle and monitor if ice begins to form on the evaporator and harvest properly.
