Homes around Ashton often sit on larger lots, with long runs to utilities. A propane or natural gas dryer that lights and then shuts off can be a failing gas valve coil, but check the fuel supply first. An empty propane tank has fooled many people.

Where a house has a well or a long water line, low pressure can cause hollow ice cubes and slow fills. Refrigerator ice makers need steady pressure at the valve. If the kitchen tap is fine but the ice is poor, the small saddle valve or the filter is more likely to blame.

A tip for Ashton

Replace the refrigerator water filter on schedule, especially on well water.
