Sub-Zero Repair around Gravelly Lake
Lakewood Water District · confirm on your bill
Gravelly Lake sits inside Lakewood, and Lakewood Water District keeps its office on Gravelly Lake Drive. Check that the district’s name is on your water bill, because the checks below assume it is.
A house on the shore may keep ice in more than one place. When every unit fails together, start at the water; when one fails alone, start at that unit.
What we see here
- A lakeside house may run a built-in in the kitchen and an undercounter ice machine at a bar, so the first job on the phone is working out which unit is at fault.
- Sub-Zero's UC-15I undercounter ice maker could be ordered with or without a drain pump, so the exact model decides whether standing water points at a pump or at a gravity drain.
- The ice bin in an undercounter machine is not refrigerated, so some melt is normal; water that stays in the bin points at the drain.
- Sub-Zero asks owners to check any in-line filter as well as its own cartridge, which matters in a house with a softener or whole-house filter on the main.
On your side of the Shut-Off Line
- Work out which unit is misbehaving, the built-in, the bar ice machine or both, before trying anything else.
- Read the model number off the undercounter machine: the UC-15I was sold with and without a drain pump, and that decides where a slow drain is looked for.
- Look along the ice machine's visible drain line for a kink or a loop.
- Note any softener or whole-house filter on the main; Sub-Zero asks for those to be checked alongside its own cartridge.
Then the five that apply anywhere, in order: switch, filter, supply valve, fill tube, arm and bin.

Bluff-side house, wine column sitting four degrees warm all summer. He found the condenser fan running slow and the coil furred with salt. Cleaned it, new motor, holding spec now.

Two shops told us the module was dead. This one changed a clogged filter, tested the inlet valve and told us to wait a day. Full bin by morning.

Freezer had drifted to 15 degrees and the ice cream was soft. Turned out to be a thermistor reading wrong, not the board another shop wanted to replace. Done in one visit.
