Appliance Care Tips to Prevent Costly Breakdowns
Simple preventative maintenance steps you can perform at home to extend the lifespan of your household appliances and avoid emergency repair calls.
Recommended Action Items
- Clean condenser coils underneath or behind the unit using a coil brush or vacuum wand.
- Inspect the rubber door gasket seals with the dollar bill test to verify an airtight seal.
- Clear the defrost drain hole and replace water filter cartridges on schedule.
Technician Note: Dirty condenser coils force the compressor to run hotter, increasing electric bills by up to 25%.
Recommended Action Items
- Clean the dryer lint trap after every cycle and snake the exterior exhaust vent yearly.
- Inspect rubber fill hoses for bulges, cracks, or leaks, and swap with braided stainless steel.
- Run a hot tub-cleaning cycle with white vinegar or washer tablets to prevent mildew build-up.
Technician Note: Clogged dryer exhaust vents remain a leading cause of residential structural fires nationwide.
Recommended Action Items
- Remove and rinse the cylindrical mesh filter at the tub bottom with warm soapy water.
- Clear food deposits and mineral scale from the upper and lower rotating spray arm jets.
- Clean door seals with a damp cloth and run an empty cycle using citric acid or cleaning pods.
Technician Note: Clogged lower filters cause standing water in the basin and strain the drain pump motor.
Recommended Action Items
- Wipe spills promptly after cooling; avoid excessive self-clean cycles that stress thermal fuses.
- Inspect oven door hinges, latch alignment, and internal gasket for heat leakage.
- Clean gas burner ports with a soft brush and inspect electric element coils for hot spots.
Technician Note: Self-cleaning at maximum heat right before holidays can blow thermal cut-offs and lock control boards.
