What usually goes wrong and where we start

Most cooling complaints trace back to a short list of parts. A fridge running warm while the freezer stays cold often points to a failed evaporator fan or a defrost problem that has choked the airflow between compartments. Frost spreading across the back wall usually means a bad defrost heater, sensor or control. Water on the floor tends to come from a clogged defrost drain or a cracked water line to the ice maker. Buzzing and clicking can be a struggling fan, a dirty condenser or a start relay giving out. Our technician first checks temperatures, airflow, condenser coils and door gaskets, then tests the defrost system before recommending any parts.

Built-in and column units need a different approach

Built-in and column refrigerators are designed to sit flush with the cabinetry, so they vent from the front, often run separate cooling systems for the fridge and freezer, and rely on electronic controls with more sensors than a typical freestanding model. Many are panel-ready and anchored to the cabinets, which means a repair may require careful work at the top grille or in place rather than simply pulling the unit out. Parts are more specialized and sometimes need to be ordered. In practice, that calls for a technician who protects your custom panels and floors, diagnoses before ordering, and tells you plainly whether a repair makes sense.

What to check before you call

A few quick checks can save a visit. Make sure the thermostat wasn't bumped, the door closes fully, and nothing inside is blocking the vents. Clean the door gasket and test it by closing the door on a sheet of paper; if it slides out easily, the seal is weak. Vacuum the condenser coils, especially in homes near the beach where sand and salty air build up quickly. Call us if the fridge stays warm after a day, you hear constant clicking, frost keeps returning, water pools repeatedly, or the compressor runs nonstop. Those usually point to a part that needs testing.

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.
