Refrigeration and ice come with food-safety obligations, so you get a note of what we found and what we changed. If the failure traces back to maintenance, such as a grease-coated condenser, a torn gasket or an ice machine that needs descaling, we'll tell you, since that's what brings on the next breakdown.

Typical setups are a basement washer and gas dryer in the older city houses, and a kitchen refrigerator plus a second fridge or chest freezer in the garage of a suburban home.

No matter the brand, a Hobart appliance in Clairton, Jefferson Hills & South Park is only as good as the drain, circuit, vent and water line it's hooked to, and here the washer and dryer are usually in a stone or block basement in Clairton, and on the lower level or in a laundry room near the garage in Jefferson Hills and South Park.

A gas oven whose igniter glows but never lights, a burner that clicks without catching, a gas dryer that tumbles but stays cold: these are among the most common repairs we make, and usually come down to an igniter, a valve coil or a sensor.

Anything on the supply side of the appliance, such as the piping or the shutoff valve, is work for a gas fitter, and we'll tell you if we find a problem there.

Every winter in Clairton, Jefferson Hills & South Park brings calls about garage refrigerators whose freezers have gone soft while the garage itself is near freezing. It seems backwards, but in many models a single thermostat in the fresh-food section decides when the compressor runs, and in a cold room it rarely asks.

The owner's manual gives the room-temperature range the refrigerator was designed for. If your garage falls outside it, the fix may be a garage-rated model or a warmer spot rather than a part.
