ICE MACHINES NEED TO BE CLEANED EVERY QUATER OR ATLEASE TWICE A YEAR
There are two ways to get dirty ice - dirty water or a dirty machine.
If the water that the machine is processing is dirty, you'll get dirty ice. Check that your water filter is working properly, and that the filter core is in good condition. If the water supply to your machine is really dirty, consider a double filter.
Also, check inside your machine for deposits of silt, minerals or other undesirable materials. Clean out the inside of the machine thoroughly, but don't use any household cleaning products or acids - they will damage your machine or leave an undesirable perfume which will contaminate the ice - Just use water. Also don't use anything abrasive on the internal surfaces. If there are mineral deposits, you can dissolve them with household vinegar by soaking them or spraying them continuously, and then rubbing with a non-abrasive sponge. There are also commercial solvents especially for icemakers. Rinse the machine thoroughly to remove any odours, and throw away the first harvest of ice.
