Ice Maker Repair Venice FL
For ice makers and freezers together, Bozmanfix Florida repairs with a part have a $385 median, and the middle half of those bills is $300 to $495. In Venice, much of the ice trouble we see does not arrive labeled as an ice maker job at all. It arrives as a refrigerator call, and that changes how you should book it. Company-wide prices by part, built from Bozmanfix invoices, are on our appliance repair parts cost page.
Ice Maker or Freezer Trouble in Venice
Cubes that stopped, a dispenser that clicks without pouring, an ice maker that leaks into the bin, frost building on the back wall of the freezer, or a chest or upright freezer that will not hold temperature. We work on the ice side of refrigerators, on ice machines built in under the counter, and on freestanding chest and upright freezers.
Only 5 of our 250 Venice jobs are labeled ice maker or freezer. The ice trouble hides elsewhere: 24 of the 77 refrigerator notes, read one by one, are about ice, the ice maker or the door dispenser, and nine jobs that carry no appliance label at all describe ice problems too.
Ice Problems Arrive as Refrigerator Calls
The gap is about labels. The ice maker lives inside the refrigerator, so a call about stopped cubes can be booked as a refrigerator visit with the ice detail written into the note. In Venice those notes read like a catalog of the ice side: an ice maker that went out, a dispenser not filling, an ice maker leaking, ice frozen across the chute, a freezer not making cubes, ice that tastes bad, and an ice maker making far too much.
For you, the booking label does not matter. Book whichever visit feels right, say that the problem is ice, and say whether the fresh food and freezer sections still hold their temperature. That one sentence tells the technician to load ice side parts and to start the test at the water path rather than the sealed system.
The tagged jobs show the other half of this page. One was an undercounter KitchenAid ice machine that stopped making ice. One was an LG freezer that stopped producing ice after the owner had already tried replacing parts. One was a Frigidaire freezer that was not cooling. Standalone ice machines and freezers are fewer in Venice than refrigerator ice makers, but they come with their own parts list.
| Repair with a part | Florida, ice maker and freezer |
|---|---|
| Median full ticket | $385 |
| Middle half of bills | $300 to $495 |
There is no Venice column. Venice has too few ice maker and freezer repairs with a part for a median, and any figure would be set by one or two invoices. The Florida figure, built on far more repairs, is the one to plan around.
Ice Maker Parts, Priced as Full Tickets
The figures are whole bills, with the trip and labor inside them. The frozen fill tube at $432 is worth knowing about in Venice: one note described an ice maker frozen over, and another described ice building up at the dispenser.
Freezer Parts, Priced as Full Tickets
A freezer that hums without getting cold is tested for a fan or defrost fault before anyone talks about the compressor.
What the Venice Ice Notes Describe
Dispensers that stop pouring
Several Venice refrigerator notes describe a dispenser that will not pour water or ice: a door reservoir not filling, ice and water both stopped, a dispenser that would not stop once pressed. On one GE that had stopped making ice and dispensing water, the note records that the filter head and the filter needed replacing.
On a dispenser model the test runs along the water path: the filter and its housing, the inlet valve, the line to the door and the fill tube. If you replaced the filter just before the trouble started, say so at booking.
Ice makers that leak
Several notes describe an ice maker leaking: into the fresh food side, or freezing up at the back while water ran out at the front. A leak at the ice maker can come from the fill tube, the valve, or a defrost drain that has frozen and sent water where it should not go.
Close the water supply to the refrigerator if the leak keeps growing, and switch the ice maker off at its own control.
Undercounter ice machines A SEPARATE APPLIANCE
One tagged Venice job was a KitchenAid undercounter ice machine that had stopped making ice. These units have their own water valve, pump or drain, and controls, and they are tested on their own terms rather than as part of a refrigerator. Tell us the brand and model at booking and whether the unit has a drain pump.
Freezers that will not hold
Two tagged Venice jobs were freezers: an LG that stopped producing ice and a Frigidaire that was not cooling. On the refrigerator side, nine notes name the freezer compartment in particular, including one freezer door that would not open after the owner had spent three days defrosting it.
Frost building up in a freezer points the test toward the defrost heater and the door gasket. Our page on freezer frost buildup describes what that looks like.
Brands on the ice side SAMSUNG, GE, WHIRLPOOL AND MORE
The five tagged ice and freezer jobs include Frigidaire, KitchenAid, LG, Kenmore and GE once each. The refrigerator notes that mention ice add Samsung, Whirlpool, GE, Frigidaire, LG and Kenmore. This reflects which machines stand in Venice homes and says nothing about which brand fails more.
Samsung owners can read Samsung refrigerator ice maker problems.
Three things to tell us about the ice
1. Which appliance. Door dispenser, a bin in the freezer, an undercounter machine or a stand-alone freezer: say which one makes or holds the ice.
2. Whether it still cools. Do the fresh food and freezer sections hold their temperature, or is the whole unit warm?
3. The water side. When the filter was last changed, and whether the house has a separate filter or softener on the line.
No ice, or a freezer losing its cold? Reserve a Venice visit online or ring (863) 663-2086.
Ice Symptoms and What Gets Tested
- No ice, cabinet cold: the water reaching the tray is checked at the filter, the valve and the fill tube before the module is blamed.
- Small or hollow cubes: water pressure through the filter and the inlet valve.
- Dispenser clicks, nothing comes out: ice jammed in the chute, the auger motor or the door switch.
- Water in the ice bin or on the floor: fill tube, valve and a frozen defrost drain.
- Freezer frosting up: defrost heater, defrost control and the door gasket.
- Freezer warm, compressor running: evaporator fan and defrost ahead of the compressor.

Venice Water and the Ice Maker
The City of Venice 2025 drinking water report says the city draws brackish water from wells in the intermediate aquifer and treats it by reverse osmosis, then aeration and chlorination, for delivery within the city. Hardness is missing from that report, so this page leaves it out too.
Beyond the city line, unincorporated Sarasota County is served by the county utility, whose 2024 report describes raw water at 1,120 mg/L of hardness softened to around 120 to 125 mg/L. Your water bill shows which of the two systems you are on; we have not mapped South Venice or Venice Gardens address by address.
For an ice maker, the water source matters mostly through the filter. Tell us when the refrigerator filter was last changed and whether the house runs its own filter or softener, and the technician will check the flow through each before blaming a part.
Seasonal Homes and Freezers
Part-year living is common here. The Census survey for 2020 to 2024 classes about two in nine city housing units, 22.5 percent, as seasonal, and in 34285 the share reaches 27.2 percent. A freezer or ice maker left running in an empty house, or switched off with the door closed, is worth describing at booking.
Let us know how many months the house stood empty and whether the ice maker and freezer were left running.
After a Storm or a Long Outage
With the door kept closed, the USDA counts on roughly two days of safe cold from a packed freezer and one day from a half-empty one. The same guidance allows refreezing anything that still carries ice crystals or never rose above 40°F.
The National Hurricane Center’s report on Hurricane Milton records storm surge inundation of 6 to 9 feet above ground from Venice southward to Boca Grande, and a peak sustained wind of 79 knots at a University of Florida tower at Venice Beach. If floodwater reached a freezer or ice machine, leave it unplugged until it is inspected.

How the Ice Maker Visit Runs
- Diagnosis. $99, with the water path and the freezer side both tested.
- A single total. Given in full before any part is ordered.
- Approval. Your yes credits the $99 against the repair.
- Warranty. Three months on the ice repair, parts and labor both.
Module, Valve or a New Freezer
An ice maker module is a small bill next to a new refrigerator, and on a refrigerator that cools well it is an easy repair to approve. A freezer compressor is a different conversation on an older unit. How long freezers last covers lifespan, and the repair or replace guide sets a repair total against new.

Questions About Venice Ice Makers and Freezers
What does ice maker repair cost in Venice, FL?
Bozmanfix Florida invoices put an ice maker or freezer repair with a part at $385 in the middle, with half of those complete bills from $300 to $495. Approve the work and the $99 diagnostic is deducted.
Is stopped ice a refrigerator booking or an ice maker booking?
Either works. Say that the problem is ice and whether both compartments still hold their temperature. Ice problems turned up in 24 of the 77 Venice refrigerator notes, so mention the ice whichever booking you choose.
My dispenser stopped pouring water. Is it the ice maker?
Not necessarily. Water has to get through the filter, the inlet valve and the door line first, and a frozen fill tube can block it, so those are tested before the ice maker.
Do you repair undercounter ice machines?
Yes. Undercounter ice machines from KitchenAid and other brands have their own valve, controls and drain, and they are tested as separate appliances. Send the brand and model with the booking.
Does Venice water affect my ice maker?
The city treats brackish well water by reverse osmosis, and its 2025 report gives no hardness figure. On an ice visit the technician measures flow through the refrigerator filter and any filter or softener on the house line, because a clogged one cuts the water the ice maker needs.
