Hard water is the usual enemy of ice makers around Hillcrest: mineral scale narrows the fill tube and coats the mold until production drops off. A descale and a new filter sometimes solve it; a failing inlet valve needs replacing.
Street parking can be tight, so a note about where the technician can park saves time on the day.

Owner maintenance that makes the biggest difference
Follow your manufacturer's clean cycle with the nickel-safe ice machine cleaner it specifies, typically every six months and more often with very hard water. Replace the inline filter on schedule. Vacuum the front grille or condenser regularly, especially on built-in units that breathe through a small kick-plate vent. Empty and wipe the bin when the machine sits unused, such as in a vacation rental between guests.
Filtration deserves a word of its own. A sediment and carbon filter improves taste and catches grit, but it does not remove the calcium and magnesium that form scale, so it slows buildup rather than stopping it. Some owners of undercounter machines add a scale-inhibiting cartridge made for ice equipment, which can stretch the time between descaling. Either way, write the install date on the filter housing so the next change does not slip by a year.
Avoid vinegar or bleach unless your manual specifically allows them; some evaporator coatings are damaged by the wrong chemicals. Outdoor units near the coast deserve an occasional fresh-water rinse of the condenser, since salt air corrodes coil fins and fan motors.
