Model # 249FFI

Sub-Zero freezers repair

The 249FFI is the ice maker version of the 249FF, an undercounter all-freezer from Sub-Zero’s discontinued 200 Series with a removable ice bucket.

A defrost cycle not completing, leaving ice on the evaporator, is the issue reported most on a 249FFI, and it can lead directly to a door or drawer that no longer seals fully when closed. No ice, slow ice, or cloudy cubes from the ice maker is a common complaint that’s best diagnosed on its own.

FAQ

Sub-Zero 249FFI FAQ

Ice building up on the evaporator can push cold, humid air toward the door area, which over time affects how well the seal closes.

Usually not — cloudy ice more often points to the water supply or filtration than the main cooling system.
