QuestionHow long can you hold ice? Is ice stored indefinitely or only for a short period of time?
Asked 9 years ago by Dani.
This question was asked about the related product: 9.5" 26-Lb. Portable Icemaker
- Answer It is stored in the freezer compartment of the machine, and if it does melt it melts back into the water reservoir to be used again. A pretty neat concept. We have only had it hold ice for about 8 hrs, and shut it down at the end of our parties, and it still kept the ice frozen up until at least then.

QuestionHow noisy is this machine?
Asked 9 years ago by Davilla.
- Answer Yes, the portable ice maker makes noise when it dumps into tray. Some humming noise while running as well. However, I'm amazed by how fast it makes ice. I use for a couple hours to produce a bag of ice to store for later. We have water softener & I don't like the taste of water or ice going through the system & the fridge. I can put up with a little noise & enjoy the convenience of not having to go out & buy bags of ice.

Questiondoes the ice maker have a water filter and if so how do you get at it?
Asked 7 years ago by jkelly.
This question was asked about the related product: 9.5" 26-Lb. Portable Icemaker
- Answer Since you pour water into it, filtering is not required or you would filter your water beforehand. There is a screen the water goes through in case you drop something in the reservoir.

Asked 4 years ago by Ame.

- Answer A gallon of water weighs 8 pounds. There are 128 ounces in a gallon. 16 ounces equals 1 pound. All this considered, it will take 3.25 gallons of water to make 26 pounds of ice. Or 416 ounces of water.

QuestionThe red full lite comes on when starting it up so the icenaker remains in full mode
Asked 6 years ago by dave.
This question was asked about the related product: Frigidaire - 26-Lb. Compact Ice Maker
- Answer Make sure the ice basket is fully seated all the way down against its supports. Examine the supports beforehand to see if plastic "flash" from the injection molding process is present on the supports, which would cause the basket to ride higher than it should. This unit uses an infrared LED emitter and detector pair to detect a full ice bucket. You can see them on the left and right on the inside of the unit. Make sure these are clear of any obstruction or contamination. Clean them with Isopropyl alcohol if necessary.

QuestionCan it be hooked up to the ice maker line , in a 5th wheel camper that has a missing refrigerator in it? Just wondering if that was an option. Thanks!
Asked 6 years ago by Frog.
This question was asked about the related product: Frigidaire - 26-Lb. Compact Ice Maker
- Answer No. This unit receives water by pouring it into the opening on the top with the door open. There is no provision for a threaded water inlet that would be regulated by the machine.

QuestionThis says it has an ice storage capacity of 2.65 lbs. How long does the ice stay frozen for after being made if I leave it in the machine? Does it immediately start to melt, or will it be ok for awhile before I have time to use it or put it in the freezer

This question was asked about the related product: Frigidaire - 26-Lb. Compact Ice Maker - Black
- Answer The machine continually makes ice, it does not have the ability to keep it cold for long periods. It just melts & the ice maker makes more as long as there is water in the reservoir. I put mine in the ice storage bin of my upright freezer. It’s makes great crushed ice or works fine for cubes as well. Just shake off any excess water before dumping it in.
