Schaumburg Refrigerator Repair

Modern refrigerators should last about 15 years, which is a major improvement on iceboxes. First recorded in 1748, ice boxes were a rudimentary version of today’s refrigerator. Electric refrigerators appeared on the scene in the 1930s and have been through many iterations since due to advances in technology.

Parts that commonly require repairs include electronic control boards, ice makers, thermostats, and motor modules and/or water inlet valves.

There is a DIY method you can try if you have water leaking beneath your refrigerator, and it involves a cooking utensil you may already own. Use a turkey baster to flush the defrost drain with warm water. Once you have done so, monitor the refrigerator to see if the leaking ceases.

Some issues are best left to the professionals. Your refrigerator’s electronic control board can sustain serious damage from power surges. They can cause it to stop working entirely. This scenario warrants placing a call to an expert to determine if it can be repaired or if you need to replace the appliance.

If you find your food is either freezing or spoiling, the temperature of the refrigerator may be set too low. Make it a habit to periodically adjust the temperature setting to achieve the optimum level.

Schaumburg Freezer Repair

If your freezer stops maintaining the optimum temperature, it may be time to replace the thermostat, as modern freezers have features that allow them to precisely regulate internal temperatures. Freezers have the potential to last 17 years due to improved efficiency. However, it is important to do your part to aid in their longevity, which includes performing proper maintenance such as cleaning the coils.

Schaumburg Washing Machine Repair

Electric washing machines were not always a staple in the home. They only became a necessity after World War II. Prior to that time, they were considered a luxury. These days, a washing machine can last about 10 years if you take care of it properly. Always clean the tub on a regular basis, store the machine on level ground and use the appropriate amount of detergent.

Repairs can involve motor problems, malfunctioning timers and faulty water level regulator switches.

Sometimes an overheated motor can cause your washing machine to experience a delay in starting. While the situation can be frustrating, it is important to give the appliance some time to see if it will start once the motor cools down.

Schaumburg Clothes Dryer Repair

Much like the washing machine, dryers were not widely adopted until advances in technology drove down the cost. From the debut of the very first electric dryer in 1915 to the 1960s, few households owned this appliance.

Repairs commonly involve the dryer belt, drum seals and glides, electric ignition and/or rollers and the thermal fuse. Clean the lint trap after every single use to increase your dryer’s life expectancy. Some can last as long as 12 years with proper treatment.

A dirty lint screen and an overloaded machine can result in a dryer that will not heat up even though it runs. Fortunately, this issue is easily preventable. Simply resist overloading the machine and clean the lint screen regularly.

Schaumburg Stove/Oven Repair

It could be said that stoves were the very first appliance. They date back to the 1700s. It is reassuring to know that this critical appliance has a life expectancy of about 15 years.

To ensure your oven lasts a long time, keep excess water away from knobs and dials, and clean the interior and exterior of the appliance on a regular basis. Look out for defective elements, faulty igniters and clogged burners, as these are common issues stoves experience.

If your oven is unable to maintain a constant temperature, you may end up with consistently burned or undercooked food. Examine the condition of the thermostat to determine whether or not this is the issue.

One repair best left to a licensed professional is a faulty circuit breaker. A gas stove that will not light even when the stove is plugged in may be due to the circuit breaker.
