Everything You Need to Know About Appliance Repairs

With home improvement spending up for the 10th consecutive year, it’s clear that Americans want to take care of their homes. But while bigger remodeling projects get the press coverage, appliance issues account for that spending, too. That’s why you should know when it’s time to fix or replace a home appliance.

Read on to learn everything you need to know about appliance repairs!

Watch For Laundry Appliance Problems

If you have both a washer and dryer, that’s machinery that probably cost at least $1,000 to purchase — and that’s for a low-end model! If you notice problems with either machine, you’ll want to pursue repairs whenever possible.

A dryer that doesn’t produce enough heat to dry clothes might have a bad thermal fuse. A busted heating element might result in clothes that don’t dry properly thanks to an overloaded dryer. Or if the dryer makes a lot of loud vibrations, you might have an issue with the door seal.

With your washer, a leak could indicate the water lines are not hooked up properly. Or your machine might have a clogged drain hose. In any case, call a repair technician to diagnose the issue and provide a solution.

Check Your Fridge

Your refrigerator is an essential home appliance if you like eating — and most people do! That’s why you’ll want to be attentive to unusual buzzing noises or lukewarm food. Either symptom could indicate your fridge is on the decline.

An appliance repair technician can help you out. They can fix a freezer fan that has stopped working or a compressor problem. And they can tackle a water dispenser that isn’t working.

Keep Your Range in Working Order

Since your stove and cooktop are connected as a range, you’ll need to keep an eye on both. For instance, your ignitor might need to be replaced if your burner is not working. Any splinters or cracks in the stovetop might translate into replacing the entire stovetop.

And if your oven or stove won’t work at all, you might need someone to take a look at the electrical work. In any case, these are repairs best left to someone with experience.

Service Your HVAC System

When you’re dealing with the extremes of winter weather or summer heat, you want a functional HVAC system. But when your furnace or air conditioner passes the 10-year mark, it might start showing signs of wear. That’s why hiring a repair technician for routine maintenance is critical.

For instance, you might notice that your thermostat needs replacing. Or you might need a new heat exchanger, especially if you haven’t replaced the filters as often as needed. For your air conditioner, you’ll need a repair technician in the event of a refrigerant leak or evaporator issues.

Know About Appliance Repairs

Appliance repairs are a necessary part of homeownership. Fortunately, a repair technician can help you get more life out of an aging fridge or HVAC system. Do routine servicing and listen and look for the telltale signs that you’re having appliance issues.
