Customers often ask whether to repair or replace an appliance. The answer depends on its age and the issue at hand. At Mr. Appliance of Edison, we provide cost-effective, long-lasting repairs. However, replacement may be better if the appliance is past its typical lifespan or has costly-to-replace parts. We follow the 50% rule: repair is the way to go if repairs cost less than half the price of a new appliance.

Some of the most common and frustrating appliance failures you’ll face are:

• Smelly washing machine
• Inefficient refrigerator
• Ignition failure on a gas stove
• Non-heating gas oven
• Broken garbage disposal
• No power at the outlet
• Leaking dishwasher
• Clothes dryer doesn't get laundry dry
• Wobbling washing machine

Placing appliances on uneven floors is generally bad, as it can harm their performance and lead to costly repairs. Washers and dryers, for instance, require a level surface to prevent excessive vibration, inefficiency, or "walking" due to imbalance. Installing a leveling pad can resolve this. Similarly, refrigerators on uneven surfaces can lose efficiency and increase energy costs. Fortunately, most have adjustable leveling legs to compensate for uneven flooring, ensuring optimal performance and preventing unnecessary wear.

Cleaning your dryer vent is crucial for efficiency and safety. Over time, lint can build up in the vent, blocking airflow and making the dryer work harder, which increases energy use and may lead to poor drying results. More importantly, this blockage presents a fire hazard since lint is highly flammable; nearly 3,000 dryer fires occur annually in the U.S., leading to property loss and injury. To mitigate this risk, it's recommended to have professional dryer vent cleaning once or twice a year, depending on your household's dryer usage.

Here are three key factors that affect the duration of appliance repair services in Edison:

• Service Technician Availability: The repair work can't start until your local service technician arrives at your property. We focus on getting there when we say we will and working efficiently without cutting corners.
• Problem Complexity: Appliances are complex machines, and while some repairs are simple, others can be very difficult and time-consuming.
• Necessary Parts: While we do keep commonly needed parts in stock, there are some situations where a part that we don't have available needs replacement, and in that case, it's necessary to wait to have it ordered.

Modern appliances often feature digital displays that provide information like temperature settings and modes. Over time, you become accustomed to these messages—until an unfamiliar "Error" or "Err" code appears, leaving you puzzled. You can look up the code for guidance if you have the manufacturer's handbook handy. The professionals at Mr. Appliance can interpret these error messages and diagnose the problem effectively.

Caring for and maintaining your appliances is a great way to save on energy bills, help them run efficiently, and extend their expected lifespans—all of which can help you avoid needing appliance repair in Edison, NJ! Homeowners and business owners can significantly improve the performance of their machines with regular maintenance. Here are a few tips for some of your most important appliances!

Caring for Your Refrigerator

While they are durable, proper care is essential for longevity. One important tip is to avoid overstuffing the fridge, which can block air vents and disrupt circulation, leading to inadequate cooling and food spoilage. Regular maintenance, which homeowners and appliance repair experts can manage, is crucial for extending a refrigerator's lifespan.

• Daily: Maintain a clean fridge and cover all food to prevent odors from moving through your fridge and into your freezer. Adding a box of baking soda to your fridge will also help absorb odors.
• Each Month: You can empty your ice to ensure it does not form a solid block or absorb odors from your freezer.
• Every 3 Months: Avoid overstuffing, as this blocks air vents and hampers cooling, risking food spoilage. Regular maintenance is key to ensuring your refrigerator lasts longer.
• Every 6 Months: Does your fridge have a water dispenser? Replace the water filter to ensure your water and your ice stay free of odors! The drain hole and drip pan should be cleaned as well.

Caring for Your Dishwasher

According to Consumer Reports, 30% of dishwashers require repair within the first five years. By catching issues early and calling for assistance, you can avoid major problems. Here are some warning signs you need dishwasher repair:

• Cloudy glassware with lots of water spots after washing
• Wash cycle is finished, but the dishes are still dirty
• Dishes are cool to the touch right after the wash cycle completes (they should be hot or at least warm)
• Unit takes noticeably longer than previously to complete a wash cycle
• Door can no longer support its own weight
• Visible leakage when the unit is running or a puddle forming underneath
• Water isn't filling at the cycle's beginning or draining away properly after the cycle
• The unit makes strange sounds such as grinding, buzzing, or screeching

Our two top tips for maintaining your dishwasher:

• Empty and rinse the filter. Clean the filter regularly by removing bits of food and debris and running the filter screen under hot water.
• Use cleaning tablets regularly. Deep clean your dishwasher once a month with dishwasher cleaning tablets.
