How we repair your Scotsman Nugget Ice Maker
A nugget ice maker is a countertop appliance with a water reservoir that produces soft, chewable nugget ice with a small freezing cylinder and auger. Every nugget ice maker combines a water inlet valve, a freezing surface or mold, a harvest system and sensors that tell it when the bin is full. A technician checks water supply and pressure, scale buildup and sensor operation before testing the refrigeration side.
