About this service
What Ice Maker Installation Hattiesburg MS actually involves
Ice Maker Installation Hattiesburg MS is the licensed trade of connecting a new or replacement ice maker to your home's water supply, drain, and power, then calibrating it to produce clean, clear ice. It covers everything from running a new water line and fitting a saddle valve to setting the ice maker mold, checking the thermostat, and confirming the compressor cycles correctly. We install built-in, undercounter, countertop, and refrigerator ice makers from Whirlpool, KitchenAid, GE, Samsung, LG, Frigidaire, Scotsman, Manitowoc, Hoshizaki, Ice-O-Matic, U-Line, and Sub-Zero.
Most Hattiesburg calls come from two situations: a refrigerator ice maker that finally died after years of service, or a homeowner adding a dedicated ice machine to a wet bar or outdoor kitchen. In older homes around Downtown Hattiesburg and The Avenues, we often find the existing water line is copper or brittle poly tubing that needs replacing before the new unit goes in.

What's included
What's included in our ice maker installation
Every installation includes the core work needed to get your ice maker running safely and correctly. We'll tell you upfront if your job needs anything extra, like a new electrical outlet or a longer water line run.
✓
New water supply line
We run a new braided stainless or food-grade water line from your shutoff valve to the ice maker. If your existing line is copper or brittle poly, we replace it as part of the install.
✓
Water inlet valve and fittings
We install or replace the water inlet valve and all fittings. Every connection gets tightened to spec and pressure-tested before the unit is powered on.
✓
Unit leveling and placement
We set the ice maker level, confirm clearance around the condenser coils, and check the door gasket seal. Proper leveling prevents water pooling and uneven ice production.
✓
Full cycle test and calibration
We run a complete ice cycle, check the thermostat setting, verify bin temperature with a thermometer, and inspect the first batch for clarity and cube size.
✓
Water filter installation
We install a fresh water filter so your first batch of ice tastes clean. A new filter also protects the water inlet valve from sediment and scale.
✓
Walkthrough and warranty
We show you how to shut off the water, reset the unit, and when to change the filter. You get a written warranty on the installation and the manufacturer paperwork.
How it works
Our ice maker installation process, step by step
01
Site check
We inspect the cabinet or counter opening, the existing water supply, the drain route, and the electrical outlet. We check for a shutoff valve, confirm the outlet is grounded, and measure clearance for the condenser coils. This takes about 15 minutes and tells us whether we need a new water line or valve.
02
Line and valve
If the old line is copper or brittle poly, we replace it with a new braided stainless or food-grade tubing run. We install or replace the water inlet valve, add a saddle valve if none exists, and flush the line into a bucket before connecting anything to the ice maker.
03
Unit placement
We set the ice maker in place, level it front to back and side to side, and connect the water line, drain, and power. For built-in units, we confirm the door gasket seals and the unit isn't pinched against cabinetry. This step usually takes 30 to 45 minutes.
04
Calibration and test
We set the thermostat, check the ice maker mold fill level, and run a full cycle. Using a thermometer, we verify the ice bin reaches the right temperature. We watch for leaks at every fitting and check the first batch for size, clarity, and hollow cubes.
05
Walkthrough
Before we leave, we show you how to shut off the water supply, how to reset the unit after a power outage, and when to change the water filter. We hand you the manufacturer paperwork and our warranty information. Total on-site time is usually two to four hours.
Tools & methods
Tools and methods we use on every install
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians — so the job is done accurately the first time.
Multimeter
Used to test voltage at the outlet, check the water inlet valve solenoid, and verify the control board is sending power to the right components.
Manifold gauge set
For sealed-system work, we use a manifold gauge set to check refrigerant pressures and confirm the compressor is cycling correctly.
Vacuum pump and recovery machine
When a compressor or sealed system is involved, we recover refrigerant per EPA Section 608 rules and pull a deep vacuum before recharging.
Tube cutter and flare tool
For copper water lines, we cut cleanly and form proper flares so connections seal tight without over-torquing fittings.
Inspection mirror and leak detection dye
We use a mirror to see behind the unit and leak detection dye to trace slow leaks that aren't visible to the naked eye.
Thermometer
We check ice bin temperature and verify the thermostat is holding the right range, so your ice comes out solid and clear.
Nut driver set
For removing panels, tightening valve fittings, and accessing the ice maker mold and auger without stripping screws.
Real results
Before and after.
Dead fridge ice maker replaced in Oak Grove
Before
A family in Oak Grove had a Whirlpool refrigerator whose ice maker stopped producing ice three weeks earlier. The fill tube was frozen, the water inlet valve was weak, and the old poly line was brittle and discolored.
After
We installed a new ice maker, replaced the water inlet valve, and ran a new braided stainless line. The unit was producing clear ice within two hours. Bin temperature held at 5 degrees Fahrenheit.
Undercounter unit installed in West Hattiesburg wet bar
Before
A homeowner in West Hattiesburg had a new Scotsman undercounter ice maker sitting in a box for two months. The cabinet had no water line, no shutoff valve, and no drain route.
After
We ran a new water line from the nearest cold supply, installed a shutoff valve and drain, leveled the unit, and calibrated the thermostat. The first bin of ice was clear and solid within four hours.
Commercial ice machine swap in Downtown Hattiesburg
Before
A downtown restaurant had a Manitowoc ice machine head that failed on a Thursday afternoon. They needed a replacement installed before Friday dinner service, with no time to spare.
After
We removed the old head, installed a new Manitowoc unit, reconnected the water line and drain, and verified bin temperature and ice clarity. The restaurant was back to full production by Friday morning.
