Avanti in Mt Lebanon, Upper St Clair & Pleasant Hills homes
We repair Avanti appliances in every Mt Lebanon, Upper St Clair & Pleasant Hills ZIP code (4 in all). The fault is found in your home and priced for your yes or no before any work.
Mt. Lebanon is one of the region's classic suburbs, with brick houses from the 1920s to the 1950s tucked close together on curving streets, many with the garage cut into the basement. Upper St. Clair came later and has more room, and the boroughs along Route 51, from Pleasant Hills to Jefferson Hills, are largely postwar ranches and split-levels. Across all of them, the basement and the garage are where appliances have the hardest time.
Two things worth knowing about Avanti before we arrive: Avanti concentrates on compact and second appliances: dorm and under-counter refrigerators, small laundry and beverage coolers; and the small compressor in a compact Avanti suffers more from a dusty condenser or a warm room than a full-size refrigerator's does.
Call or book online and we'll set up a time that works for you.
Avanti: platform and parts
Avanti designs and makes its own appliances, so the parts and service methods belong to Avanti alone, and parts for Avanti work around Mt Lebanon, Upper St Clair & Pleasant Hills come through its own supply chain.
Send us the model number with your booking. Look for a sticker inside the door or lid, along the frame, behind the bottom kick plate or on the rear panel; with it we can look up that platform's known weak points and carry those parts instead of ordering after the first visit.
Is an Avanti worth fixing?
Avanti keeps its designs plain and affordable, which works in your favor at repair time: with so few electronics, most Avanti faults we come across around Mt Lebanon, Upper St Clair & Pleasant Hills are a switch, pump, belt, valve or fuse, all quick to trace and modest to replace.
The downside is that a brand-new Avanti is also cheap, so only the smaller repairs make financial sense. If a big part has failed on an older one, we'll usually point you toward replacing it.
Where Avanti appliances sit in Mt Lebanon, Upper St Clair & Pleasant Hills
Garage refrigerators and chest freezers in unheated tuck-under garages, basement washers and dryers with long vent runs through finished ceilings, dehumidifiers and freezers side by side on damp basement floors, and remodeled kitchens with built-in refrigerators, wall ovens and pro-style ranges.
No matter the brand, an Avanti appliance in Mt Lebanon, Upper St Clair & Pleasant Hills 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 the basement in Mt. Lebanon's older houses, and a basement or a first-floor laundry room in the newer houses of Upper St. Clair and Pleasant Hills.
Frozen lines and cold-weather leaks
Water damage from appliances usually starts at a hookup rather than inside the machine: a rubber washer hose that finally burst, a fridge line pinched when the refrigerator was shoved back, or a line that froze and split.
Braided stainless hoses, a shutoff valve you can reach without moving the appliance, and a drip pan under an upstairs washer are cheap and worth having. If water appears, turn off the supply and unplug the machine before anything else.
Gas ranges, dryers and safety
Natural gas is common for ranges, dryers and water heaters in Mt Lebanon, Upper St Clair & Pleasant Hills, and older houses often have gas piping that has been extended and reconnected several times. A gas appliance that won't light usually has an igniter, a sensor or dirty burner ports at fault, not a gas problem.
With a strong gas smell, leave switches alone, get out of the house and call the gas utility from outdoors. We can look at the appliance once it's safe, and after any gas work, each fitting we opened gets leak-tested.
