Low Water Pressure Problems - hegribremmouwa - 09-09-2025
I’ve been scratching my head over why my ice maker isn’t keeping up lately. The fridge itself works fine, but the ice bin fills so slowly it’s barely worth using. Someone mentioned that weak water pressure in the house could mess with it. I’m not sure if that’s true, but it does make me wonder since my tap in the kitchen sink sometimes runs a bit weaker than usual.

Low water pressure can definitely cause issues. I had a similar problem where my ice cubes were tiny or the tray didn’t fill completely. It wasn’t until I replaced an old filter and checked the supply line that the flow improved. Once the pressure was normal again, the ice maker worked like it should. I came across a helpful breakdown on https://scientificasia.net/why-isnt-my-ice-maker-working/ that listed pressure as one of the most common factors to check, along with filters and frozen lines.

It’s surprising how many little details go into keeping appliances running properly. Even small things like a partially blocked line or older plumbing can have unexpected effects. Over time, I’ve learned to pay attention to changes in water flow around the house since it often explains why something stops working the way it used to.
