A few problems repeat. First, the fresh-food side drifts warm. Second, frost builds on the rear panel. Third, water collects under the drawers. Because these usually involve the defrost circuit or a fan, diagnosis is normally quick.

Usually this is airflow, not refrigerant. If the evaporator fan has failed, then cold air cannot move forward. Likewise, a defrost fault ices the coil. Therefore the freezer holds while the fridge warms.

Almost always a blocked defrost drain. During defrost, meltwater should reach the drain pan. However, ice can plug that line. As a result, water backs up and runs forward under the drawers.

Usually the condenser is dirty, so heat cannot escape. Alternatively, a worn door seal lets warm air in. Because both faults lengthen run time, your bill rises and the compressor wears sooner.

Yes, in many cases. Since Whirlpool owns the Maytag brand, a number of components cross-reference between them. Therefore parts availability is often better than people expect.

That depends on the failed component. For example, fans, sensors and drains usually justify repair. However, a sealed-system failure on an older unit often does not. Because the gap is wide, we explain it up front.

Usually the tag sits inside the fresh-food compartment. First, check the left wall near the crisper drawers. However, sometimes it hides behind a drawer instead. Because the number identifies the exact parts, we always ask for it first.

Most visits finish the same day, because we stock the parts that fail most often. However, if your model needs an ordered part, then we return once it arrives. Either way, you get the timeline before we start.

Yes. First the technician inspects the unit. Then you get a clear price before anything is repaired. Because nobody likes surprises, no work begins until you approve that quote.

Clean them about twice a year. However, if you have pets, then clean them more often. Since dust makes the compressor work harder, regular cleaning lowers running costs. In addition, it extends the life of the unit.

Set the fridge near 37°F and the freezer at 0°F. However, do not rely on the display alone. Instead, place a thermometer in a glass of water. Because water reacts slowly, it shows the true shelf temperature.

Usually we can come the same day. Because our technicians are EPA Section 608 certified, they can handle sealed-system work too. So call (470) 847-9076 with your model number, and we will give you an arrival window.
