Handling Home Appliance Repair Like A Pro With These Tips


Appliances & Repair sign by RickM2007


When I bought my first washer and dryer it was to replace the older equipment in my first home and as a single woman I didn't need a large washer or dryer. When my husband and I moved, our new home didn't have a washer and dryer, so we took them with us. The washer and dryer were purchased from Eagle hardware, which is now Lowe's in Tukwila. I had them for at least fifteen years before my husband and I finally replaced them with larger Kenmore models from Sears. In that time, my dryer needed repairs twice because of a loud squeaking noise that complained as the clothes dried.

I called the Appliance Repairman, located at 11921 SE 212th PL, Kent, WA, (253) 630-9924,

because they were listed toward the front of the phone book and also because they were quite close to my home in Renton. On both occasions that I needed the Appliance Repairman's washer repair and dryer repair, I was quite satisfied with the service provided and the amounts I was charged.

When I called the Appliance Repairman's office, the phone call was answered promptly and I received an appointment for the next day. They gave me a two-hour slot when they'd likely arrive and showed up on time. This was wonderful. I never had to wait around wishing I could skip out and catch lunch. They notified me that they'd have to charge a fifty dollar minimum home service call charge the first time, and a thirty-dollar minimum minimum home service call charge the second time. In both cases the work required totaled more than the minimum charge so I only paid for parts and labor.

The dryer repair job that the Appliance Repairman performed involved lubing the glides, soler pulley and rear drum bearings for a cost of $76. Six years later, the dryer repair job that the Appliance Repairman performed was a transmission replacement totaling $200. The dryer repair work was needed because the transmission was leaking oil. In both cases the dryer repair solved the noise. The Appliance Repairman had all of the parts and tools needed to do the job in his van.

After completing the dryer repair, both times the Appliance Repairman didn't need to do a washer repair. The washer repair work he did was simply to do a quick check that no work was needed. I found the Appliance Repairman quite knowledgeable, helpful and professional and when the new washer and dryer break down, I'll be sure to call him.

Home Appliance Repair Ideas You Can Use Today


Appliance Repair in MIDLOTHIAN, IL by appliancehub


Would you like to make your home more energy efficient? While heating and cooling systems take a toll on a home's energy resources, replacing other energy zapping appliances, such as the refrigerator, reduces your home's environmental impact as well. But, which refrigerator brand and model should you choose for a replacement? With so many on the market, how can the average consumer select the best, energy efficient model that suits the individual's taste and budget? The government's Energy Star program is designed to help consumers and businesses make informed purchasing decisions about energy efficient products and appliances-and offers a range of quality, tasteful options.

What is the Energy Star Program? The government's Energy Star program is a joint effort between the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to help educate consumers and businesses about energy efficient home and office products available for purchase. The Energy Star program uses strict guidelines, developed by both the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Energy, to identify the most energy efficient products in a range of categories from office electronics to kitchen appliances-helping consumers locate the best products to suit both personal needs and lessen household or business environmental impact.

Why is the refrigerator such an energy inefficient appliance? According to Energy Star resources, the refrigerator tops all other household appliances in energy usage--using more electricity than any other household appliance. Of course, that is understandable since the refrigerators must run throughout the entire day to maintain proper temperature.

Why should you replace your old refrigerator with an Energy Star model? Older model refrigerators were not designed to be as well insulated or energy efficient as modern refrigerators earning the Energy Star certification. Choosing an Energy Star qualified refrigerator gives consumers a model that is guaranteed to be at least 20 percent more energy efficient than even other modern refrigerator designs without the Energy Star seal. Upgrading an older refrigerator to an Energy Star qualified model not only saves consumers money on monthly electric bills, but reduces the household environmental impact by making one simple appliance change.

Which Energy Star qualified refrigerators should you consider? General Electric (GE), Amana, Kenmore, and Frigidaire make top rated Energy Star qualified refrigerators in both energy efficiency and customer satisfaction-with many basic, qualified models priced under $1000. While finding the most energy efficient model is important-choosing the correct size and style for your family is important as well. A 10-25% energy savings can be obtained by choosing a refrigerator with a top mounted freezer -rather than a bottom or side by side style. Refrigerators under 20 cubic feet have been shown to be the most energy efficient, making it important to select the smallest acceptable refrigerator to suit your needs. Skipping the automatic water dispensers and ice making features saves additional energy as well.

While refrigerators are modern conveniences that most consumers are not willing to give up, consumers and business owners can take advantage of the Energy Star program resources to find the most economical and environmentally friendly appliances available. Is it time to upgrade your outdated, energy wasting refrigerator?
