REFRIGERATOR REPAIR SERVICES IN LOS ANGELES

A refrigerator is one of the essential appliances in your kitchen. We depend on a fridge to keep our groceries fresh, create ice for our beverages, drink filtered water from and more importantly, it prevents food from spoiling.  However, if your refrigerator malfunctions or stops working, it’s important to call and schedule a refrigerator repair service from a professional and reliable company.

If your refrigerator does not work, it’s critical to move all perishable food items (such as meats, poultry, fish, dairy products and leftovers) into a cooler filled with ice within the first 4 hours or else you’re at risk of bacteria contamination.

Some of the common issues that cause a malfunction include:

• Cooling problems.
• Overheating compressor.
• The ice maker is not making ice.
• Water dispenser not working.
• Strange noises such as clicking or rattling.
• Additional refrigerator symptoms to look for.

One rule of thumb on deciding when to replace or repair your refrigerator is if the cost of repairs is half the price of buying a new unit. Also, consider is the age of the appliance; repair it if it’s 8 years old or less and replace if it’s over 15 years. If the age of your fridge is anywhere between those years, other factors may be involved such as the brand and type of the refrigerator you own to consider if it’s worth repairing or buying a new one.

If replacing your refrigerator is something that’s not in your budget, consider extending the life of your existing unit by maintaining it throughout the year. These simple maintenance tips can help prevent future repairs, lower your electricity bill and save you money against buying a replacement.

Below are some helpful tips to maintain your fridge in Southern California:

1. Use a thermometer to test the temperature of your refrigerator and freezer.
2. Clean your condenser coils every six months to remove dirt and build up.
3. Keep the temperature in the kitchen cool to prevent the fridge from using more energy than needed.
4. Make sure your refrigerator has ‘breathing’ room with a few inches of space between the unit and wall for enough air circulation.
5. Additional ways you can maintain your refrigerator’s efficiency
