Salt air, garage laundry and older kitchens
Redondo Beach sits right on the water, and damp, salty marine air works its way into appliances over time. In garages close to the ocean, we find rust on dryer cabinets and washer frames. We also find corrosion on electrical connections that causes faults to come and go. Many homes here are older bungalows, condos and townhomes with tight kitchens, so refrigerators are often boxed in with little room to shed heat. Kenmore models were built by several different manufacturers over the years, so we check the model number first to know exactly which design and parts we're working with.
What usually goes wrong with Kenmore appliances
A Kenmore refrigerator that won't cool usually has dusty condenser coils, a failed evaporator fan, or a defrost problem that has iced over the back panel. Washer leaks tend to come from a worn door boot on front-loaders, a cracked fill hose, or a loose drain hose connection. Dryers that run but stay cold typically have a blown thermal fuse, a bad heating element on electric models, or a weak igniter on gas units. Dishwashers that leave food behind often have a clogged filter or blocked spray arms. Ovens that won't heat usually point to a bake element, igniter or temperature sensor.
Simple habits that keep a Kenmore running near the coast
Vacuum the refrigerator's condenser coils every few months, and leave a little space around the cabinet so it can shed heat. On front-load washers, wipe the door gasket after the last load. Leave the door cracked so moisture doesn't sit there in the damp coastal air. Clean the dryer lint screen every load and have the vent duct cleared yearly. Rinse the dishwasher filter monthly. Hard water can also leave scale, so an occasional cleaning cycle helps. If garage appliances show rust spots, touch them up early. And if a new smell, noise or leak appears, call before it turns into a bigger repair.

Our freezer stopped working recently. When I called West Appliance Service they came to my home to assess the problem within 1 hour of calling. They were able to come back the next day to complete the repairs once they knew what parts they needed. The service was quick, smooth, and well done. We had a great experience working with Ivan and highly recommend anyone to use their services. We will definitely be a repeat customer if our appliances need repair.
