Hoshizaski Ice Maker Repair in Tulsa

Colby fixed an ice maker today. We are often times called on to fix oddball machines all over the Tulsa area. Some of these appliances do specific things like keep sandwiches cool or freeze ice cream on a table.

When one of these machines breaks, it can cause a lot of disruption. In fact, when we do appliance repairs in Tulsa, we tend to drop everything else knowing that we will help out a customer that will turn into a lifelong client!

We recognize the importance of repairing these machines and do our best to make sure they are taken care of as soon as possible.

This business relied on their ice maker every day and when it broke it was rough on all the people who relied on the ice throughout the day. Since they were sitting ducks without ice, they called CJ Appliance Repair to come and save the day!

When Colby, the owner of CJ Appliance Repair, arrived to repair the ice maker, he first did a thorough inspection. We do this for all our customers to make sure that all the correct problems are being addressed before just diving in and repairing something and missing another piece of the puzzle.

Anyway, these Hashizaski ice machines should be cleaned out regularly, like twice a year, to keep them working well. This ice maker hadn't been cleaned in a few years.

Colby recognized that and saw immediately that the corrosion was the biggest thing to blame for faulty function of this ice maker. After checking everything else, he grabbed the part and replaced the faulty piece. In the after pictures you can really see the difference.

Besides just not working correctly, ice makers need regular servicing to keep the corrosion out of the ice they make. Plus, if they are left until they break, they can cause serious problems like short wires, leaking machines, and other trouble.

Interested in the exact ice maker repairs that were made?

The corroded parts were two: the gearbox motor, the metal part that houses the gears for churning the capsule of ice. And the mechanical seal, to keep the water where it is supposed to be. If the seal had been inspected and replaced as it ought to have been, the gear motor would likely have been saved.

You live and learn, though. At least this business now has their ice maker working and we have an interesting story to tell!

Check out the video, too. In it you see our final test to verify that the ice maker repair was working as expected and you can see ice being pushed out of the capsule by the motor, as it ought to.
