The simple answer to this question: no. High end refrigerators have become increasingly more complex over the years. While refrigerators operate under the same principles as they always have, newer digital and eco friendly versions of high end refrigerators are much more complicated. The basic functions of your high end refrigerator is accomplished through compressors, electric motors, and coolant and tubing. Home repairs on a refrigerator are problematic not because of these simple components, but because of new digital technology.

Preventative Repairs:
Most at-home “repairs that you can do are not repairs at all. They are simply preventative maintenance that can extend the life of your high end refrigerator. The first preventative repair you want to address is the insulation of your freezer and refrigerator. If the insulation along the edges of the doors gets dry, warped, or cracked the warmer air from the outside gets in and raises the temperature on ...
... the inside. This will waste energy and cost you money. It will also interfere with the thermostats and motors, resulting in a quicker break down. Lubricating the insulation strips is the best way to prevent this from happening.

Another important preventative repair is keeping the coils at the rear of the fridge and the underneath of the unit free from dust and debris. The dust and dirt can accumulate which acts as insulation around the unit. This prevents proper dissipation of heat that can cause you problems and money.

Bottom line:
Aside from light preventative maintenance, you will need a service technician that is proficient in high end appliances. Our professional technicians not only have the knowledge, but have the proper tools and parts that can get you back up and running as quickly as possible.
