Why your Follett ice machine is leaking water
On a Follett ice machine, leaking water usually announces itself like this: puddles around or under the appliance — could be drain pan, gasket, water inlet valve, or hose failure. More often than not it traces back to a cracked or clogged drain pan. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.
Most likely causes
- Cracked reservoir or filter housing
- A loose or split supply hose
- Worn door gasket
- Failed water inlet valve
- A cracked or clogged drain pan
Known Follett ice machine weak points
- Auger and gearbox wear on the nugget-ice compression system
- Reduced or slow ice output from scale buildup in the water system
- Dispenser agitation and vend-motor faults causing jams or no dispense
- Bearing and seal wear requiring periodic rebuild of the ice-making head
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
One thing you can rule out on your own: trace exactly where water first appears, since that narrows down whether it's a hose, gasket, or drain issue. Also, check for an obviously loose supply line, a door gasket that isn't sealing, or a drain you can reach and clear yourself. If it's still acting up after that, water tracking back to a cracked internal pan or a failed valve means partial disassembly, and working near live electrical parts while wet is a real shock risk.
