Abstract: An ice maker uses a compression-drive refrigeration system charged with flammable refrigerant to cool an ice formation device and a water system to supply water to the ice formation device. A control system operates the water system and the refrigeration system for cooling the ice formation device with the refrigeration system to form water supplied to the ice formation device by the water system into ice. A natural gas sensor detects natural gas and outputs a detection signal indicating detection of natural gas. A controller is connected to the natural gas sensor for receiving the detection signal. The controller outputs a response signal in response to receiving the detection signal. The response signal is operative to initiate a gas leak response action.
