What to know about Ice-O-Matic service here
Shirlington & Fairlington is in South Arlington, reached along South Quaker Lane, Interstate 395, Campbell Avenue and South Walter Reed Drive. Much of the housing is garden apartments and condos from the 1940s onward, mixed with newer mid-rise buildings and streets of small single-family houses, so we ask what kind of building you are in when you book.
A couple of points specific to Ice-O-Matic: Ice-O-Matic builds modular and self-contained commercial ice machines, and like every commercial cuber its working life depends on water treatment and regular cleaning; and low output, small or irregular cubes and long harvest times point to scale on the evaporator, a dirty condenser or an overdue water filter well before they point to a failed component.
Three things make booking in Shirlington & Fairlington faster: the model number, a short description of what the appliance is doing, and any building or parking details. Call (703) 468-4416 and we'll find a time. Our coverage here takes in the whole ZIP code.
What the Ice-O-Matic name tells you about parts
Ice-O-Matic engineers its own appliances rather than rebadging someone else's, so its parts and service procedures are its own. That means parts come through Ice-O-Matic's own channels, and it rewards a technician who already knows the platform's habits.
When you book, a photo of the Ice-O-Matic rating label is the most useful thing you can send. It lets us check parts before the visit, which is the biggest single factor in finishing in one trip.
Ice-O-Matic faults by appliance
What we see on Ice-O-Matic ice makers: biofilm and slime in the water system, then bin sensors stopping or not stopping production.
Where Ice-O-Matic appliances sit in Shirlington & Fairlington
The housing in Shirlington & Fairlington changes block by block, and so does the job: a compact stacked washer in a condo, a full-size pair in a rowhouse basement, a built-in refrigerator in a remodeled kitchen. With the model number up front, we can bring the right parts for whichever one you have.
Gas, refrigerant and electrical work
Gas ranges, cooktops and dryers in Shirlington & Fairlington run on Washington Gas service. Before we disconnect one, it's isolated at its own shut-off, and every connection we touch is leak-tested before the appliance goes back into use. If the problem is on the supply side, we leave the appliance off and tell you who needs to fix it.
Refrigerant work is regulated, and many newer refrigerators use R-600a (isobutane), a flammable refrigerant that calls for its own procedures. Before opening a sealed system we check whether the repair makes economic sense, because on a lot of mid-range refrigerators it doesn't.
Compact and stacked appliances in Shirlington & Fairlington
Stacked laundry in a closet in Shirlington & Fairlington often has inches to spare on each side, so the drain hose, supply hoses and dryer duct are routed where nobody can see them. A slow leak there can run for weeks before it shows up as a stain on the ceiling below.
If someone lives under you, a drip pan beneath the washer and braided stainless supply hoses are worth having. Whenever we service a stacked pair we check the hoses and drain connection, because a leak into the unit below costs far more than the repair.
Booking Ice-O-Matic repair in Shirlington & Fairlington
Before you call (703) 468-4416, it helps to note when the problem started, whether it is constant or comes and goes, and any code on the display. Those details often point straight at the cause on an Ice-O-Matic.
We quote after diagnosing, the price doesn't move once work on the Ice-O-Matic starts, and parts and labor are covered by our 90-day parts and 30-day labor warranty.

Ice-O-Matic Questions From Shirlington & Fairlington
Want to talk it through?
Describe the symptom and your neighborhood, and we will tell you when a technician can get there.
Yes. Many buildings in Arlington, VA require a certificate of insurance and a reserved service elevator before a contractor comes in. Give us the building name or address when you call (703) 468-4416 and we'll arrange it with management ahead of time. We also service the compact and stacked appliances these buildings tend to use.
The faults we see most on Ice-O-Matic ice makers are drain pump and drain line problems, condenser fouling reducing production, and bin sensors stopping or not stopping production. The symptom alone does not identify the part, so we diagnose on site before giving a price.
Almost always, when the fault is a part rather than the structure. Commercial Ice-O-Matic equipment is designed to be rebuilt, and most failures are fans, gaskets, controls or maintenance issues. We will tell you if a sealed-system or compressor failure on an older unit makes replacement the better call.
