What people here ask us first.
Because most freezers are not rated for the temperature a Yuba City garage reaches. The climate here is very hot summer, and once the air around the cabinet passes what the compressor was designed for, the unit runs continuously and still loses the interior. People read that as a failing compressor when the compressor is working exactly as built, in conditions it was never specified for. The newer stock helps slightly, with about 43.9 percent of homes predating 1980, but an attached garage still runs far hotter than the rooms next to it. Worth knowing before you pay for a repair: a garage-rated unit is built for this and a kitchen unit is not, so if the appliance is a standard indoor freezer living in a garage, the honest answer is sometimes that the appliance is wrong for the location rather than broken. We will tell you that on the visit.
Use age bands as a first pass. Under five years, repair; the refrigerator has most of its life ahead and a fault this early is usually a single part, sometimes still covered by the manufacturer. Five to ten years, repair for almost anything; this is the age when fans, defrost parts, relays and gaskets wear, and all of them are affordable. Ten to fifteen years, repair the small and mid-range faults without hesitation, and get a real quote before deciding on a compressor, a refrigerant leak or a control board, because that is where the numbers can favor a new unit. Past fifteen, repair a simple fault on a freestanding unit if the part is cheap and available, and otherwise lean toward replacement; for a built-in or premium refrigerator, keep repairing, since those are built for twenty years or more and cost far more to replace.
Within any band, the fault decides more than the age. A twelve-year-old refrigerator with a failed fan is a repair. A four-year-old with a refrigerant leak that the manufacturer will not cover is a harder question than the age suggests.
That is why the diagnostic visit comes first. Ours is a flat $89, credited to the repair when you go ahead, and the repair is quoted in writing before any work begins.
