“I purchased my refrigerator in 6/17. I never use ice. A guest noticed a white powdery film on the ice cubes. I thought lack of use was the problem. For a month I emptied the ice maker 2x a day, changed the filter, and still have the problem. Suggestion?”

Do you use the water from the fridge? When you put in a new filter, you are supposed to go through 20 cups of water before it is “ok” to drink. Also forbthe ice, you dump the first batchn& then it is ok. I haven’t had any issues, but the first batch of ice that I dumped looked like what you described. Get the first 20 cups of water out & then it can make the ice. Hope that makes sense.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.What it sounds like you are experiencing is cloudy ice. Water free of minerals and impurities freezes first, and as that water freezes, entrapped air and minerals are moved out of the freezing ice toward the unfrozen center. Eventually the trapped air becomes frozen water with air bubbles which looks like cloudy ice.
