- 01 Built-In Refrigeration in a Timber Loft: Why Masonry-and-Beam Conversions Break Sub-Zero Clearance Specs In West Loop and River West lofts an ice maker usually fails because of the installation rather than the module: mill construction leaves no cavity for the water line and no spare depth for grille clearance. Here is what to check and what it costs.
- 02 Frost That Keeps Coming Back Is Not a Cleaning Problem If the frost across the back of a freezer returns within a week of being cleared, defrosting it by hand only restarts the clock. Three components produce that pattern, and which one it is can be narrowed down before anybody opens a panel.
- 03 The Ice Maker Stopped: Check the Water Before the Module A starved ice module behaves exactly like a failed one, and on a converted warehouse floor the water has a long way to travel. Here is how to tell a supply problem from a module problem before anyone quotes you for a module.
