Refrigerator repair in Los Angeles

Refrigerators are the most used, least troublesome of all appliances.

Santa Monica, CA (prHWY.com) October 27, 2012 - Refrigerators are the most used, least troublesome of all appliances. Yet they have plenty of potential trouble areas. It is a minor miracle of technology that they cause so few complaints. Appliance repair is something you should expect and be prepared for.

In most modern refrigerators, the compressor and motor are sealed with no exposed moving parts. Lubrication is provided continuously. The motors usually are of a type that has a startup winding which cuts out when running speed is attained, and the running winding takes over. An overload and a relay switch, in a separate, serviceable compartment, complete the motor's electrical equipment.

Refrigeration systems in modern refrigerators have the sealed-in compressor, which is a pump for converting low-pressure gas to high-temperature, high- pressure gas. Then, by way of the condenser, the resultant heat is removed to the air outside the refrigerator. These functions cause refrigeration to occur.

A heat exchanger, consisting of a capillary tube and suction line, is another component. The exchanger serves to regulate and assist in cooling.

The evaporator, another link in refrigeration, consists of a cooling plate in the fresh food compartment and an evaporator in the freezing compartment. It helps regulate correct, different temperatures in the various chambers of the refrigerator.

Any major breakdown of a refrigerator -- either compressor or motor -- requires service you cannot perform at home. Usually, and unless the guarantee remains in effect, you will be forced to buy anew one, unless the shop makes you an offer you can't refuse -- such as a guaranteed compressor-motor unit for much less than the new refrigerator, and the refrigerator is one you are reluctant to junk. We'll discuss replacing the unit below.

Refrigerator life should be between 15 and 20 years. What goes wrong before then is usually nothing more than an occasional broken part--a shelf latch or compartment clip or runner -- or other purely mechanical disabilities. Electrical problems are often traceable to power sources that are inadequate to run the motor- compressor. If there is a voltage drop below 110 volts, this could cause the motor to fail. If the line is overloaded, the refrigerator's starting could trip the circuit breaker or blow a fuse.
