Water in many South Jersey systems and private wells is hard, and over a few years the scale it leaves in the inlet valve and fill tube slows an ice maker down. A unit in a cold garage or porch can also freeze its fill tube in winter.
Most homes have a driveway and garage; mention a basement or garage appliance when you book.

Frozen lines, roof decks and moderately hard water
Philadelphia winters cause a specific ice maker problem: frozen water lines. A refrigerator on an exterior wall of an older rowhouse, or one with a supply line running through an unheated basement or crawl space, can lose its water supply on cold nights. Insulating the line, rerouting it away from cold walls, or keeping the basement from dropping too low usually fixes it. Outdoor ice machines on roof decks in new-construction homes need to be drained and winterized before freezing weather.
Older homes often have saddle valves, the clamp-on kind that pierces a copper pipe, feeding refrigerator ice makers. They tend to clog, leak or seize over time, and replacing one with a proper quarter-turn valve is a sensible upgrade, done by a plumber or during installation.
Philadelphia's water is moderately hard, so mineral scale builds up in inlet valves, fill tubes and the water systems of undercounter and nugget machines. Changing the refrigerator water filter on schedule and descaling standalone machines as the manufacturer recommends prevents most scale-related failures. Humid summers also make bin and door seals more important; a poorly sealed bin will form clumps and frost.
