Viking FIUI5152D Clear Ice Machine
The FIUI5152D is a current 5 Series 15-inch panel-ready clear ice machine. It offers rapid clear ice production, generous ice storage, a built-in drain pump and a soft-close reversible door.
A soft-close door adds a damper to the hinge, and a reversible door means the hardware can be set for either swing. If the door will not close all the way, drifts open or closes with a bump, we look at the hinge, the damper and the alignment first, because a door that stands ajar warms the bin and melts ice. Then we check the condenser, the fill, the evaporator and the drain pump.
Since it is current, parts are usually easy to order. The price is written first, and repairs carry a 30-day warranty.
The damper may be worn, the hinge may be out of line, or the panel may be binding. We adjust the hardware and test the door through its full swing.
The listing says the door is reversible. Changing it requires moving hardware, so we recommend a technician do it, then check the gasket and alignment afterward.
A sticking float or a pump that cannot clear the line may run longer than expected. We test the float, the pump and the discharge hose.
