How to Descale a AGLUCKY HZB-12/H Countertop Ice Maker

Introduction

This is a guide on how to descale an AGLUCKY HZB-12/H Countertop Ice Maker. Without regular cleaning, the ice machine will start to slow down and run inefficiently. Mineral build up will clog the machine and cause the sensors to stop working. This leads to the machine running with an empty reservoir and malfunctioning when trying to freeze ice.

Hi there! It looks like the owner's manual has a short troubleshooting section: https://images.thdstatic.com/catalog/pdf...

If you don't find success there, I'd recommend posing the question in our Answers forum, with a bit more detail describing your exact issue: https://www.ifixit.com/Answers/Ask
