Blossom Valley Appliance repairs ice maker repair across San Jose six days a week. Scale-blocked fill valves, cloudy cubes, module faults. Diagnosis first, fixed quote second.

San Jose Water draws from local groundwater wells blended with treated surface supply, and the result is hard — commonly 8 to 20 grains per gallon depending on your zone. That mineral load is not cosmetic. It builds inside ice maker fill valves until they jam, coats dishwasher heating elements until they burn out, films glassware, and stiffens washer inlet valves. We check for scale on every water-fed component, and we tell you what treatment actually helps.

Usually mineral content and restricted water flow. Hard water leaves cloudy cubes and slowly chokes the fill valve, cutting cube size. We diagnose the flow restriction and fix the cause, not just the symptom.
