When a New Appliance Is Already Giving Trouble

A brand-new refrigerator or range that misbehaves in its first weeks is frustrating, and the cause is not always a bad unit. Often it comes down to how it was put in. Here is what usually separates the two:

• Leveling. A refrigerator that is not tipped slightly back may have doors that swing open, seals that do not close and water that pools under the crisper drawers.
• Clearance. Built-in and counter-depth models need specific gaps for air. Pushed too tight into a cabinet, a refrigerator runs constantly and still struggles to stay cold.
• The water line. A kinked or partly closed supply line gives slow ice, a weak dispenser or a drip behind the unit.
• Gas setup. A range converted for the wrong fuel, or a regulator left in the wrong position, gives tall yellow flames or burners that will not stay lit.
• Power and outlets. Shared circuits and loose connections cause resets, error codes and display flicker.
• A genuine defect. Sometimes a part is faulty out of the box. A sensor, a fan motor or a control board can fail early.

What to Do First With a New Appliance

• Check the paperwork. If the manufacturer's warranty still covers the unit, contact the manufacturer or the store first. That repair is usually theirs to handle.
• Look at the installation. Is the refrigerator level? Is there room at the back and top? Is the water valve fully open?
• Write down the symptom. Note when it happens, what the display shows and whether it started on day one or a few weeks later.
• Keep the model label handy. A photo of the sticker inside the door or behind the drawer saves time on the phone.

If the warranty has lapsed, the store will not come out, or you want an independent opinion on whether it was installed correctly, we can help.

Common Appliance Problems in Brookhaven

The new French-door refrigerator will not hold temperature. Tight clearance, a blocked vent or a damper that sticks.

The ice maker on a new unit makes small, hollow cubes. Low water pressure or a supply line that is partly closed.

The new gas range has yellow, lazy flames. The conversion or regulator setting does not match the fuel at the home.

A wall oven shows a code after a power blink. A control that needs a reset, or a sensor or relay that has failed.

The garage freezer runs nonstop in summer. A dirty condenser, a weak fan or a unit not suited to garage heat.

The wine cooler in a new bar cabinet runs warm. Its vent is covered by trim, or the cabinet traps the heat it gives off.

A Brookhaven Repair Visit

Get in touch. Phone or send the form with the appliance, the brand, its age and what you have noticed.

We track down the cause. The technician looks at the installation as well as the appliance: level, clearance, water, gas and power, then the parts tied to the symptom.

We explain before any work. You hear whether the fault is the setup, a part or both, and what each fix involves. From there the call is yours: repair it, replace it or hold off.

We repair and test. With your approval, we use genuine, OEM or OEM-approved parts whenever available and run the appliance until it performs as it should.

Your repair is covered. A regular repair carries up to six months on parts and labor, and Sub-Zero work up to a full year.

Renovated Kitchens and Built-In Appliances

A remodel often brings panel-ready refrigerators, column freezers, steam ovens and induction cooktops. They look seamless, but they are less forgiving. A cabinet built a little too snug, a toe-kick vent blocked by new flooring or a filler strip that covers the air path can make a high-end appliance work much harder than it should. When a built-in struggles in a recently finished kitchen, we check the cabinet and the vents before we condemn a part. Sometimes the fix is a carpenter's adjustment rather than a replacement.

Rentals, Condos and Offices

Brookhaven has rental houses on many streets, condos and apartments around Peachtree Road and offices along Buford Highway and Ashford Dunwoody Road.

• Landlords and property managers get a clear written note of what failed and what we did.
• Condo owners can schedule a time that suits the building's rules for access and parking.
• Offices and small businesses keep break-room refrigerators and ice makers running with a visit planned around the workday.

Repair, Replace or Wait in Brookhaven?

With a newer appliance, repair is almost always the right answer: a sensor, a fan, a valve or a correction to the installation. Replacement makes sense mainly with older units, when the compressor or sealed system has failed on a basic model, or when parts are no longer made. Waiting can make sense too, for example when the problem is minor and you plan to remodel soon. We lay out each option so you can weigh it.
