Sub-Zero Repair in Artondale

Ask your water utility

Artondale is an unincorporated part of the Gig Harbor Peninsula in Pierce County, with Artondale Creek running down to Wollochet Bay. A house here may take its water from a water system or from a private well.

On a well, the pump and the pressure tank decide what the inlet valve receives each time the ice maker asks for water. So a well house gets a gauge reading before anything inside the freezer is suspected.

What we see here

  1. The Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department names iron, manganese, arsenic, lead and copper among the chemicals that can affect well water, so keep the latest lab result where you can find it.
  2. An expired whole-house or in-line filter restricts every fixture downstream of it, which is why Sub-Zero's no-ice checklist asks whether the home has one and whether it is due.

On your side of the Shut-Off Line

  1. Note the reading on the pressure-tank gauge just before the well pump starts, with a cold tap left running.
  2. Swap any sediment or whole-house cartridge that is past its date before looking at the refrigerator itself.
  3. Find the latest well lab result and keep it by the phone; it settles what the water carries before we look at the machine.

Then the five that apply anywhere, in order: switch, filter, supply valve, fill tube, arm and bin.

  • Vacuum door kept popping back open a second after closing. The gasket had a split along the hinge side you could only see with a torch. New gasket, and it seals properly now.

  • Upper zone was holding five degrees off its setpoint while the lower zone was fine. Thermistor, not the board. He talked me through the readings before he ordered anything.

  • Hillside condo, freezer running warm and loud at the same time. He pulled the rear panel, found the evaporator packed in ice, and traced it to a drain heater that had quit.
