Appliance Repair in Plantation, FL

Appliance care in Plantation: what to know

Built-in and high-end appliances

Built-in refrigerators need air to move through the grille, usually at the top or bottom of the front, where the condenser is. Keep that grille clear and free of dust, and don't block it with trim or decorations. When you book, tell us the brand and model, and whether the appliance is built in: some repairs need a specific part, and knowing the model helps the technician come prepared. Recent service calls by our technicians include Miele, Asko, Jenn-Air and Verona appliances.

Dishwasher leaks in condos and townhomes

In a condo or townhome, a leaking dishwasher can reach the floor below or the unit next door. If you see water under the door or around the base, turn off the power and close the water supply valve, which is usually under the kitchen sink. Then check that the filter isn't clogged and the door gasket isn't torn. If it still leaks, call for a repair, and check whether your association has rules for contractor visits.

Before a big family meal

Test the oven and cooktop a week or two before a holiday or a party. Preheat to 350°F: if it takes much longer than usual, shows an error code or doesn't hold temperature, or if a burner or element doesn't heat, book the repair early, because some parts take days to arrive. Avoid running the self-clean cycle just before a big meal. It runs at very high temperatures, and on an oven that is already struggling it can trip a thermal fuse or damage a control board.
