Across the Allegheny from Downtown, the North Side has some of the oldest housing stock in the city. In the Mexican War Streets and Allegheny West a kitchen may sit in a house built in the 1800s, and the basement where the laundry lives was dug long before anyone imagined a washing machine. Further up the hills, Perry, Observatory Hill and Brighton Heights are newer and roomier, but still mostly older detached houses with basements.
Two things worth knowing about Electrolux before we arrive: Electrolux-badged appliances share their bones with Frigidaire but add better finishes and their own control electronics; and Electrolux induction cooktops use model-specific control boards, so on an older unit the first question is whether the board can still be had.

Electrolux: platform and parts
Electrolux designs and makes its own appliances, so the parts and service methods belong to Electrolux alone, and parts for Electrolux work around the North Side 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.
Keeping an Electrolux running
Electrolux designs its appliances to be kept for a long time and keeps parts in supply to match. When a Electrolux in its second decade breaks, it's usually one part, not the whole machine wearing out, which is rarely true of an economy model the same age.
What you pay for that is parts that cost more and are more often special-ordered, so some Electrolux repairs around the North Side need a second trip. We tell you the wait before you agree, and book the return visit on the spot.
Where Electrolux appliances sit on the North Side
Basement washers draining into laundry tubs or floor drains, gas dryers venting through old foundation walls, ranges and dryers on gas piping that has been added to over many decades, refrigerators in narrow kitchens with no room to breathe, and appliances in rental units split out of large old houses.
No matter the brand, an Electrolux appliance on the North Side 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, reached by stairs that are often steep and narrow in the older rowhouses.
Frozen lines and cold-weather leaks
Freeze-thaw winters on the North Side are hard on water lines that run through unheated spaces: an ice-maker line on an outside wall, a washer's supply in a cold garage, a dishwasher line in a crawl space. When they freeze, the appliance simply stops filling; when they thaw, a split line can leak.
If an ice maker or washer stops getting water on a very cold day, check for a frozen line before assuming a failed valve. Once it thaws, look along the line for drips.
Gas ranges, dryers and safety
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.
Electrolux in The North Side, by the numbers
Electrolux in The North Side: Questions We Hear
Quick answers to what people ask most. If yours isn't here, bring it up on the phone or type it into the notes box when you book.
Something else on your mind?
Reach out with the brand, the symptom and a model number if you have one. Some questions we can answer on the spot; the rest a technician can check in person.
Yes, and plenty of the North Side repairs work that way. The owner or manager approves by phone or email while whoever is home lets us in, and afterwards both get the same short account of what was wrong and what was done. If a building needs contractor paperwork first, send us its requirements when you book.
Give us the brand, the model number and a line about what's wrong, along with any code exactly as it shows. A photo of the rating label is better still; it's the surest way to bring the right parts to the North Side on the first trip.
Yes. If fixing it would eat up a big part of what a similar new appliance costs, and yours is close to the end of its expected life, we'll suggest replacing it, on the North Side or anywhere else. Built-ins are the usual exception, because a replacement brings cabinet work with it.
Our first choice is the Electrolux part that matches your model number. If that part has been discontinued, an equivalent may exist, and we'll tell you it's an equivalent before it goes in. Electrolux makes its own platform, so its parts come from Electrolux itself.
In most cases, repair. Electrolux designs its appliances to last longer than economy lines and keeps parts available for longer, so a single failed part in a unit that's ten years old usually leaves plenty of good machine behind, especially when it's built into your cabinets.
