Q&A
- How often do I need to clean my ice maker?
We recommend that you deeply clean your ice maker once a month to avoid maker failure due to too much scale. - How should I clean the machine?
We recommend that you use a neutral nickel-protecting cleaner to clean the ice maker. Do not clean the ice maker with acidic substances like lemon juice or vinegar as they can corrode the evaporator and lead to a blue-green residue. If you must use an acid, unplug the machine, soak the tank for 30 minutes, and then drain. Always rinse with clean water. Regularly drain the ice maker to prevent scale and impurity buildup. We do not recommend washing your ice baskets and scoops in the dishwasher as that may damage them. - Why is my ice cube cloudy?
It means that the water quality is turbid. It is recommended to use drinking water and distilled water. If your water quality problem is serious, it is recommended that you install a water filter kit. - Can I put milk and juice into the water tank to make ice cubes?
We recommend that you do not do that. Our research has found that the high concentration of milk and beverages can easily block the pump and reduce the life span of the pump. At the same time, the protein in milk is prone to calcification, which chemically reacts with the PU water pipe inside the machine, which easily breaks it, making the product unable to continue working. - Why does my ice cube melt easily?
Since the ice maker is not a refrigerator, it does not have a heat preservation function. The high ambient temperature in summer will accelerate the melting of ice cubes. You can close the lid of the machine to keep the internal temperature. Some customers also put electric fans on the side of the machine to blow away the hot air surrounding the device, thus solving the problem. Feel free to try it yourself. However, if you are not using ice cubes for a long time, we recommend removing them from the ice basket and storing them in the refrigerator. - Why is my ice so thick and difficult to fall from the ice tray? What should I do?
It may be that your ice making time is set for too long, or it may be that the temperature of your environment is very low. You can reduce the time to 0 or –6 by pressing the minus key on the touch panel. - Why does the ice cubes have a plastic smell?
The ice cube itself has no taste. If you feel there is a plastic smell, try to clean the inside of the machine with lemon water, then run a few cycles, and finally rinse with distilled water. - Why is there noise in the operation of my machine?
There is a faint sound when the machine is running. Closing the lid can reduce the noise. If the water pump makes a noise during use, it is recommended to turn off the machine first, and then turn on the machine after cleaning the filter in the water tank to observe whether or not the noise disappears. - Why is water leaking from my machine?
It may be that the PUA tube inside the machine fell off during transportation. You can remove the back cover of the machine and connect it by yourself. If you don't know how to operate, please contact the Euhomy team. We will give you a professional video to help you solve the problem. - Why is there water flowing but not making ice?
Please provide a video or picture and send it to us. The Euhomy team will assist you.

Cleaning And Maintenance
WARNING: Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance, unplug the ice maker from the power outlet (EXCEPTION: Ice maker self-cleaning program).
- Do not use alcohol or gas for cleaning/sanitization, as these chemicals may cause cracks on plastic parts.
- Ask a trained service person to check and clean the condenser at least once a year.
- This appliance must be cleaned by use of a water jet.
CAUTION: If the ice maker has been left unused for a long time, it must be thoroughly cleaned before the next use. Follow instructions for cleaning with a sanitizing solution. Do not leave any solution inside the ice maker after cleaning.
Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance ensure efficiency, performance, hygiene, and longevity. Intervals are based on normal conditions; shorten them if you have pets, use the unit outdoors, or have other special considerations.
What shouldn't be done
Never keep anything but ice in the ice storage bin. Objects like wine and beer bottles are unsanitary and their labels may slip off, obstructing the drain pipe.
Exterior Cleaning
Clean the door and cabinet with a solution of mild detergent and warm water (e.g., 1 ounce dishwashing liquid mixed with 2 gallons warm water). Do not use solvent-based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft, clean towel to prevent water spotting.
NOTE: Stainless steel models can discolor when exposed to chlorine gas and moisture. Discoloration from chlorine gas is normal. Clean stainless steel models with a mild detergent solution and warm water, and a damp cloth. Never use abrasive cleaning agents.
Interior Cleaning
For Ice Storage Bin
The ice storage bin should be sanitized occasionally. Clean it before first use and after extended periods of non-use. It is convenient to sanitize the bin after the ice-making system has been cleaned and the bin is empty.
- Disconnect power.
- Open the door, wipe the interior with a sanitizing solution made of 1 ounce household bleach and 2 gallons hot water (95–115°F / 35–46°C).
- Rinse thoroughly with clear water. Waste water flows out through the drainpipe.
- Reconnect power.
The ice scoop should be washed regularly, like any other food container.
WARNING: DO NOT use solvent cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior. These cleaners may transmit taste to ice cubes, or damage or discolor the interior.
Ice-Making Parts Cleaning
Periodically clean the main system when using the ice maker regularly.
- Repeat the above steps to clean the water tank and other inner parts.
- Specifically, clean the water dividing pipe on the evaporator. If no water or very little water flows out when the compressor and pump are running, discharge this pipe to clean it. Clean each small hole in the pipe shown in the illustration. Ensure no holes are clogged. Reinstall the pipe in its original location.
- If ice cubes are on the evaporator surface and won't fall easily, do not use a mechanical tool. Instead, press and hold the “ON/OFF” button for more than 5 seconds to enter the ice-melting process. After big ice cubes fall, turn off the unit, unplug it, and clean the evaporator surface.
- It is important to clean the water tank and the ice-full detecting plate to keep ice hygienic. Spray a mixture of neutral cleaner and water onto the inner surfaces of the tank and the ice-detecting plate. Wipe surfaces with a clean cloth. Spray with clean water and wipe with a dry cloth. Drain water from the tank using the drainage pipe. Reinstall the pipe after draining.
Suggestion:
After cleaning and reinstalling, discard the first batch of ice.
Ice-Making Assembly System Cleaning With Nu-Calgon Nickel-Safe Ice Machine Cleaner
Minerals in water can form hard, scaly deposits. Regular cleaning removes buildup. Frequency depends on water hardness; for hard water (4-5 grains/liter), clean every 6 months.
- Turn off the ice maker. Keep connected to water supply and drainpipe, but shut off the main water faucet.
- Open the door, scoop out all ice cubes (discard or store in a chest/cooler).
- Mix Nu-Calgon Nickel-Safe Ice Machine Cleaner with water.
WARNING: Wear rubber gloves and safety goggles (or face shield) when handling cleaner or sanitizing solution.
Use a plastic or stainless container. Mix 300 mL Nu-Calgon Cleaner with 2.8 L warm water (120–140°F / 49–60°C). Divide into 2 shares.
- Ensure the drainpipe of the water tank is properly installed. Pour 1 cup of cleaning solution into the water tank. Let stand for 5 minutes.
- Power on the ice maker. Press and hold “TIMER CLEAN” for 5+ seconds to enter self-cleaning. The "CLEAN" light stays on, digital window shows remaining time. The water pump runs for 8 minutes, stops for 3 minutes, repeating for a total of 30 minutes.
- After cleaning, pull out the drainage pipe. Drain solution into the lower ice-storage bin. Shake unit slightly to drain completely. Reinstall the drainage pipe.
- Repeat steps 4–6 twice more.
- Follow the above program to clean the ice storage bin.
- Once finished, return to regular ice-making mode. Discard the first batch of ice.
Cleaning Suggestions
1) DAILY CLEANING
Clean the ice scoop, door, and water-dividing pipe daily. Rinse scoop and wipe door with a clean cloth.
2) SEMIMONTHLY CLEANING
Clean the ice scoop, ice bin, water tank, ice-full detecting plate, and evaporator surface semimonthly per the interior cleaning program.
3) SEMIANNUAL CLEANING
Clean all components and surfaces exposed to water/ice (storage bin, water tank, door, evaporator, pump, silicone tube, water-dividing pipe) with Nu-Calgon Nickel-Safe Ice Machine Cleaner every 6 months. This should be done by a service technician.
