| Refrigerator Repair Las Cruces New Mexico |
Growing up around refrigerators and other household appliances often gives people the impression that their knowledge of each item is absolute. However, our refrigerator repair team knows that manufacturers are always coming up with something new. So unless a person makes a pointed attempt to stay on top of Frigidaire's latest developments, it’s very easy to be caught off guard. That said, here are five facts about Frigidaire refrigerators that may just surprise you:
1.) Hands Off the Ice Machine Augers
Did you know that most Frigidaire automatic ice dispensers feature very sensitive augers? Its true and we’ve known more than a few people that have accidentally knocked it out of alignment while trying to unclog their machine’s ice makers. If that happens to you, our refrigerator repair pros recommend putting the auger back into its proper position immediately. Otherwise, you could end up with a temperature problem and no ice.
2.) There May Be an Air Filter
When most people think of Frigidaire refrigerators, the last thing that comes to their minds is an air filter but it shouldn't be forgotten. Some of the company’s contemporary refrigerators come outfitted with air filters. Designed to help control odors, it is often located underneath of a refrigerator’s utility bin. Consequently, it will need to be replaced every so often.
3.) Don’t Use Three Common Cleaners
We all know that it’s important to clean our refrigerators but did you know that there are three common cleaners that should never make contact with your stainless steel appliances? They are alcohol, ammonia and bleach. All three could cause serious damage to the refrigerator’s components (e.g. handles and rubber gaskets).
4.) Shoot, Don’t Forget the Chute
While we are talking about cleaning the fridge, let’s not forget about the exterior ice chute extension. By design, it has a tendency to get and stay wet. So it’s necessary to clean and dry it periodically to prevent the buildup of bacteria, fungi and biofilm. For the most part, the chute extensions are removable, which makes them ultra easy to clean and reinstall at a moment’s notice.
5.) Interior Lights May Work in Unison
Lastly, our appliance repair pros wanted to share a word about Frigidaire refrigerators’ interior lighting systems. In a way, they work like holiday string lights. When one bulb goes bad, it could cause several of the ones around it to go out as well. The surrounding bulbs generally aren’t bad too. They just blink out due to the break in the lighting system’s connections. Therefore, never assume that just because many bulbs go out at a time, you’ve got a major electrical problem or need to replace them all.
