Refrigerator, freezer and ice maker repair in Boulder

Wine storage leads this site, but a Sub-Zero kitchen is mostly refrigerator and freezer. SubZeroRepairBoulder repairs built-in, integrated and undercounter Sub-Zero refrigerators and freezers across Boulder, together with the ice makers inside them.

An emptied cabinet with its rack pulled forward and the air vent on the back wall. Vents like this one need a clear path: food or bottles pressed against them starve the section of cold air.

Symptoms, and where they usually lead

The fresh-food section is above 40°F
Start with the simple things: a door that does not close, a vent blocked by food. If those are fine, the fault usually sits in the cooling of that section, such as a fan, a sensor or ice on its coil, and the freezer can be perfectly cold at the same time.
Frost on the freezer’s back wall
Most often a defrost fault: the heater, its thermostat, or the sensor. A door left slightly open adds moisture and speeds it up.
No ice, or much less of it
The supply valve, the filter, the water valve, a fill tube frozen shut, or the ice maker itself. We prove water reaches it before we blame the ice maker.
Water under the drawers or on the floor
A blocked defrost drain, a weeping supply line at the back, or a leak at the ice maker’s fill.
A dark display, or clicking then silence
Power and controls first: the connection, the board, the relay that starts the compressor.

Questions about the visit

Do you repair the ice makers in Sub-Zero freezers?

Yes, both the ice makers built into Sub-Zero freezers and the separate undercounter ice machines. Before you call, check that the supply valve under the sink or behind the unit is fully open, and whether the water dispenser, if you have one, still pours at its usual speed. A slow dispenser points to the supply, not the ice maker.

Can I book online instead of calling?

Yes. The booking page lets you choose a time without a phone call. If food is warming in a failing freezer, calling is quicker, because we can talk through what to do with the food until the visit. The phone is answered at any hour of the day or night.

Freezer warming with food inside?
