Kate D for Model Number GE Profile PSRS6PGZSS ???? I have a problem with my ice cubes produced by the Kelvinator "side by side refrigerator-freezer" that I have. When the ice cubes are added to water you can see white flakes/particles floating about in the water as the ice melts. I have checked the water filters (black type-carbon) and the water inside and coming through is clear and so is the water coming out of the water dispenser where the ice cubes are also dispensed through a different dispenser. The ice cubes removed by hand from the ice cube compartment have also the same problem. The water that enters the refrigerator is also filtered by reverse osmosis. I suspect that this is some microbes (maybe yeast/fungi) and may be growing between the water filter and ice maker or does it come from a tubing???. The model number is KSPZ25V9AB5 and it was bought in Cyprus about 10 years ago but it is similar to FMW240EN0W or -N1W or -N2W and also it is similar to the model GE Profile PSRS6PGZSS. Please, can you help? Many thanks.
Answer Kate, The white particles that are created by the ice is actually coming through in your water. This is calcium that is solidifying when the water freezes. Things that will cause this would be over filtering the water and living in a very hard water area. Hard water is caused by calcium in the water and if it is really high in the area that you live in, unless you have a water softener then there will still be some that passes through the filtration system. On the over filtering of the water. With having the unit on a reverse osmosis system, you would not want to have any other water filter system on the unit. If there is a filter in the unit then remove it and flush about 10 gallons of water through the system. This should help to clear it up. Read More...
