So many LG appliances are out there that its common wear items (pumps, water valves, switches, fuses, belts, igniters and fan motors) are on the shelf at most parts houses. Finding them for a LG job around Wilkinsburg & Swissvale is rarely the slow part.

The electronics are where the math changes. A main control board can cost many times what a pump does, and on a machine that's already getting on, that can make a new appliance the better buy. The diagnosis tells you which way it falls.

Basement washers and dryers in big old houses, gas ranges and dryers on piping that has been extended over the years, refrigerators in kitchens with too few circuits, and appliances in rental units where a landlord needs the findings before approving anything.

No matter the brand, an LG appliance in Wilkinsburg & Swissvale 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, often a full one under a large old house, and a shared laundry room in the apartment buildings.

In Wilkinsburg & Swissvale's apartments and converted buildings, laundry often means a stacked set or a pair of 24-inch machines in a closet. They do the job, but they're less forgiving: a kinked drain hose, a flattened vent or a closet door that chokes off the dryer's air quickly turns into long cycles and codes.

Separating a stacked pair and fitting it back into a narrow closet without damage is part of what we do. When you book, tell us how wide the closet is and whether it's two machines on a stacking kit or a single laundry center.

Try this: run the dryer on its hottest setting for ten minutes and hold your hand at the outside hood. A strong, warm flow is what you want. A weak puff means something along the run is blocked.

In winter, the moist exhaust can freeze at the hood and hold the flap shut. A clogged vent is a fire hazard as well as a nuisance, so a full cleaning every so often is money well spent.
