A customer in North Canton called us about their Whirlpool refrigerator on Pebble Brook Drive North. The refrigerator was working fine, but they needed an ice maker installed. We scheduled the installation and got their unit upgraded with a complete ice maker kit.
The Problem
The refrigerator is fine, but I need an ice maker installed. This was a straightforward installation request rather than a repair — the customer wanted to add ice-making capability to their existing Whirlpool refrigerator.
Diagnosis
The refrigerator was functioning properly and ready for ice maker installation. We confirmed the unit had the necessary connections and space for the ice maker kit installation.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: WPW10715708 — Icemaker, Water line — Braided Stainless 10′ x 1/4
- Work performed: Installed a new ice maker kit and stainless braided water line
- Result: Customer now has a fully functional ice maker in their Whirlpool refrigerator
Is It Worth Repairing?
Adding an ice maker to a functioning Whirlpool refrigerator is typically a worthwhile upgrade. These units are built to accommodate ice maker installations, and the convenience factor makes it a solid investment for most households.
Maintenance Tips for Whirlpool Refrigerators
- Replace the water filter every 6 months to keep your new ice maker producing clear, clean ice
- Clean the ice maker bin monthly and check the water line connections for any signs of leaks
- Keep the refrigerator coils clean to maintain efficient cooling and proper ice production
