Salt air, small kitchens and older Kenmore models
Venice sits right on the ocean, and the damp, salty marine air works its way into appliances. We often find corrosion on Kenmore dryer terminals, washer frames and the condenser coils behind refrigerators, especially in homes close to the beach or the canals. Many local kitchens are compact, so refrigerators get squeezed into tight alcoves with little room to breathe, which makes the compressor work harder. Garage laundry setups add dust and lint to the mix. Because Kenmore models were built by several different manufacturers over the years, we work from the model number to match the right parts rather than guessing.
What usually goes wrong, and why
A Kenmore refrigerator that stops cooling most often has dirty condenser coils, a failed evaporator fan or a defrost problem that has iced over the back panel. Leaking washers usually trace to a worn door seal on front-loaders, a loose drain hose or a cracked pump. When a dryer runs but stays cold, the culprit is typically a blown thermal fuse, a bad heating element or, on gas units, a worn igniter, and restricted venting is often what caused it. Dishwashers that leave food behind tend to have clogged spray arms or filters. An oven that won't heat usually needs a new bake element or igniter.
Keeping your Kenmore running near the beach
Vacuum the refrigerator's condenser coils every few months, since salt and dust build up faster near the coast than inland. Leave a couple of inches of space around the fridge if your kitchen allows it. Clean the dryer lint screen after every load and check the outside vent hood a few times a year, because coastal moisture makes lint clump. Leave the washer door open after use so the seal can dry. Rinse the dishwasher filter monthly and clear the spray-arm holes with a toothpick. If you notice rust spots on metal parts, wipe them dry and call us before corrosion reaches the wiring.

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.
