What it usually means when your Perlick ice machine is not making ice

When an ice machine stops producing ice, the cause is often water supply restriction, scale buildup, pump failure, or a cooling system issue.

Hollow or small cubes usually mean low water flow, scale restriction, or incorrect freeze cycle timing.

Leaks often come from loose fittings, cracked hoses, drain issues, or pump seal failures.

Noises are often caused by a failing fan motor, water pump issues, loose panels, or compressor vibration.

If the unit runs but won’t cool, it may be a sealed system issue, compressor start failure, or condenser airflow problem.

We service many Perlick models — model number optional when booking.

We diagnose Perlick codes — even rare or undocumented ones.

Most jobs fall into the $120-$290 labor range. The technician confirms the exact failure during the $39 diagnostic.

Some symptoms are safety-related. If you’re unsure, stop using the unit until a technician confirms the cause.
