Refrigerator Repair FAQ

What is the typical lifespan of a refrigerator?

The typical lifespan of a refrigerator can vary depending on brand, usage, and maintenance, but it generally falls between 10 and 15 years. High-end refrigerators with advanced features may last even longer, while budget models or those subjected to heavy use might need replacing sooner.

Is it cheaper to repair or replace a refrigerator?

Whether it's cheaper to repair or replace your refrigerator depends on a few factors:

Age of the refrigerator: Generally, repairs are more cost-effective for younger refrigerators (less than 8 years old). As refrigerators age, repairs become more frequent and expensive.
Repair cost: Compare the repair cost to the price of a new refrigerator with similar features. If the repair is more than 50% of the cost of a new fridge, replacement might be wiser.
The severity of the issue: Minor repairs like a faulty door seal are typically less expensive than major malfunctions like compressor failure.

What is the most common repair on a refrigerator?

The most common repairs on refrigerators include:

Replacing faulty door seals: Over time, door seals can lose their elasticity and not create a proper seal. This allows cold air to escape and forces the refrigerator to work harder, reducing efficiency and increasing energy costs.
Fixing a malfunctioning thermostat: The thermostat regulates the temperature inside the refrigerator. If it's faulty, the fridge may not cool properly or over-cool, leading to spoiled food or frozen drawers.
Addressing problems with the ice maker or water dispenser: These components can experience clogs, leaks, or malfunctions requiring repairs.
