U-Line Ice Maker Repair for Owners, Renters and Landlords

How an Ice Maker Repair Visit Works
Tell Us What's Wrong
Name the make, add the model number if it is handy, and describe the symptom. A picture of the label inside the door lets us check parts.
Diagnosis at Your Home
The technician tests the appliance along with its power, water, drain, gas or vent connections until the fault is confirmed.
A Price Before Work
We name the failed part and give you the cost of fixing it. Work starts only after you agree.
Repair and Check
The part is installed and the appliance is run through a cycle so you can watch it working.
How U-Line designs its ice makers
U-Line clear-ice machines make cubes by flowing water over a chilled evaporator plate, building up clear ice in layers while the minerals stay in the water. That water has to leave the machine, so the drain is critical. A gravity drain that's partly blocked, or a drain pump that has failed, leaves the bin full of water and melting ice. Scale on the evaporator plate slows production and can make the ice stick or come out thin; the machine has a cleaning cycle, shown as CL on the display of models like the CLR1215, and it should be run with a nickel-safe cleaner. A water valve that sticks closed stops production. Outdoor units can freeze their lines in winter if not drained, and a split line shows up as a leak in spring.
Common failure points on U-Line ice makers
- Drain pump failed and bin flooding
- Scale building on the evaporator plate
- Water valve stuck closed
- Thin cubes from low water flow
- Frozen line on an outdoor unit

Still have a question?
Get in touch with the brand, the symptom and, if you can find it, the model number. Some things we can answer right away; others need a technician in front of the machine.
The drain is the usual cause, either a blocked gravity drain or a failed drain pump. The bin should drain freely. Clearing the drain, and testing the pump on models that have one, is where we start.
Follow the schedule in your manual, and sooner if a white crust starts forming. Use a nickel-safe cleaner, since the wrong cleaner can damage the evaporator plate.
