My built-in refrigerator runs warm during hot spells. Is that normal?

Some extra run time is expected during Santa Ana heat, but a unit that can't hold temperature usually has an underlying issue, such as dirty condenser coils, a failing fan or worn door gaskets. Have it checked before food spoils.

Yes. We handle outdoor grill repair, including ignition failures, low or uneven heat, gas flow problems and worn burners.

What information should I have ready when I call?

Have the brand, the model and serial number if you can find them, and a short description of the symptoms. Error codes, unusual sounds and when the problem started are all helpful.

How Santa Monica's Coastal Climate Affects Your Appliances

Los Angeles has a Mediterranean climate with dry summers and mild winters. Areas near the coast, including Santa Monica, generally stay cooler in summer than the inland valleys. That milder weather is easier on refrigeration than a hot valley garage, but it doesn't mean appliances get a pass.

Fall Santa Ana winds can bring hot, dry spells to the whole region, the coast included. During those stretches, refrigerators, freezers and wine coolers work harder to hold temperature. Dusty condenser coils, worn door gaskets and weak fans often show up as problems for the first time during a heat event. If a built-in unit starts running warm when the weather turns hot, schedule a check before food or wine is at risk.

Outdoor grills in coastal neighborhoods also deserve attention. Being outside full-time means burners, igniters and valves face moisture and the elements. Regular cleaning and prompt repair of ignition or gas flow problems help keep an outdoor kitchen ready when you want to use it.

What to Expect From a Service Visit

Our technician starts by confirming the symptoms with you and then tests the appliance to find the cause rather than guessing at parts. Premium appliances often have several possible failure points for the same symptom. A Sub-Zero that runs warm, for example, may have a fan, sealed-system or control issue, and the fix is different for each.

Once we know what's wrong, we explain the repair, whether parts need to be ordered, and anything you should weigh, such as the age and overall condition of the appliance. You decide how to proceed. If a part has to be ordered, we schedule a return visit to finish the job.

Before the visit, it helps to have the model and serial number ready. On Viking and Wolf ranges these are often on a tag behind the kick panel or inside the oven door frame. On Thermador and Sub-Zero refrigeration, look inside the fresh-food compartment near the top or along the side wall.
