Chances are, you rely on your refrigerator to get through the day, but it can sometimes act up when we least expect it. Maybe it never stops leaking or doesn’t keep things cool enough. When these issues happen, it’s time to decide if you need a refrigerator repair or replacement. Complete Appliance Service in the northern Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati, OH, area explains how to know which one is right for you.

How to Know If You Need Refrigerator Repair or Replacement

1. You Have a Built-In Fridge

Sometimes, people have a refrigerator custom built into their kitchen. If that’s the case for you, it’s best to call in a someone for an appliance repair. It’s likely to cost you more to rebuild a new appliance than it would to get new parts to fix any issues.

2. You’ve Had the Fridge More Than 10 Years

Typically, a refrigerator can last anywhere from 10 to 20 years, so, if it’s a fairly new appliance, stick to a repair. If you’re nearing 10 years, however, ask a specialist if it would save you money over time to purchase a more efficient product. Age can play a huge role in deciding to part ways with your older appliance.

3. Your Freezer or Fridge Isn’t Working

When a part of your overall appliance isn’t working, it’s time to call in a specialist. The team at Complete Appliance Service ensures you’re only getting parts that you need so you and your wallet can rest easy. A repair can fix that leaky ice maker or get the temperature back to where it needs to be in no time.

4. It’s Not an Energy-Efficient Product

Appliances improve every year, so take that into consideration when you’re having an issue. It could end up costing you more money over time to make small repairs to a refrigerator that is using a ton of power. For a lower electric bill, an Energy Star fridge can save power.
