Appliance Repair in Lewisville

Ice maker calls from Lewisville

Ice makers depend on everything upstream: water pressure, the filter, the inlet valve, the fill tube and a freezer cold enough to freeze a tray in a reasonable time. When ice stops, start with the filter date and the shutoff arm. Small or hollow cubes point to water flow. Water on the floor or a block of ice in the bucket points to a frozen fill tube. On French door fridges with the ice maker in the door, repeated freeze-ups have a cause we can track down.

Dust and pets

Pet hair and dust collect on the condenser coil under or behind the fridge and on the fan that cools it. A clogged coil makes the compressor run longer and hotter. Pull the toe grille and vacuum the coil a couple of times a year, more often with shedding pets.

What happens when we come out

Nobody swaps parts to see what happens. The tech checks voltage, resistance, temperatures or water flow, depending on the appliance, until the failed part shows itself. You hear the cause in plain words, then the price. Common parts ride on the truck. Model-specific ones get ordered and installed on a second trip.

Save a little time

1. Note the timing. Does it fail at start, mid-cycle, or at the end?
2. Listen closely. Clicks, hums and grinding all point to different parts.
3. Check for heat or cold. A thermometer tells more than a hand.
4. Keep the area dry. Towels down and water off if anything leaks.
