Is Appliance Repair Worth It When You're Living in Carrollton TX?
It should always be cheaper to have someone come repair your used appliance than to purchase a new one. Who wouldn't agree that it's more sustainable too? This is true on the whole, but it must be said, that there are technologies that develop so fast, that buying a new appliance will supply us with a less energy consuming one, saving expenses. Yet many of us get worried when we notice that the new, high tech appliances seem to break down faster. Digital components are more sensitive to glitches and seem to need servicing more often. So we might feel like holding on to an appliance that has served us well - how do we know when to give up on it?
When your business is repairing appliances, you start making observations about which appliances are worth repairing. At Carrollton Appliance Care we have noted that as a rule of thumb, the appliance that gets the most mileage is the one that is most susceptible to wear and tear. Some of our appliances run constantly - a refrigerator does it's job 24/7, likewise many of our air conditioning and heating units. The more usage hours an appliance gets, the more we want to observe how it's holding on. We also have certain house hold appliances that are used almost daily - the stove, dish washer and washing machine/dryer. The challenge these appliances face, is the fluctuation between standstill and motion; an oscillation which keeps tearing on its parts. All appliances are composed of small parts whose job it is to function seamlessly and in a synchronized manner. Anyone who has owned something even as comparatively simple as a kick board or bike will know that screws will loosen with time and that road dust gets into the crevices and make the gears stick. It is similar with our household appliances. The heat changes and mechanical vibration that is a part of the regular usage of any appliance will lead to a slowly accumulating wear and tear that eventually breaks down some part and leads your appliance to malfunction. The best we can do is take note of the shape our appliances are in and spend a bit of time and money on servicing.
At Carrollton Appliance Care we focus on helping your appliance extend its life span. That's why we are commited to offering our affordable maintence services for your most central household appliances, like the refrigerator, stove, oven, dishwasher, washer and dryer. A maintenance call from one of our skilled professionals goes a long way: we clean behind the control panels of your appliances, tightens screws, add oil or cleaner, remove dust, making sure that all is running smoothly. It is wise to be vigilant and notice any change in the sounds the machinery makes or if there is any change in functioning - when the first seemingly innocent changes appear it is the right time to call for maintenance service! We often compare it to the human body: If you give yourself a real rest when you notice your first flu symptoms, servicing your body at this time will prevent you from falling ill at all. But when we ignore the first signs of disease and push on, like we are prone to do, your appliance will be hard put to keep on functioning optimally and you have embarked on that proverbial slippery slope.
As a side note, our experience does tell us that the life span of certain appliances comes to a close at around 10 yrs - it is seldom economically smart to repair a fridge or freezer over ten years old, as this is one of the appliances that have been running non-stop for all those years. Yet appliance care will prolong the life of any appliance.
