When to Call for Freezer Repair

  • Door or lid does not seal or pops back open
  • Water pooling under or inside the freezer
  • Compressor hums but will not start
  • Food is soft or ice cream will not stay firm

Why Freezers Stop Freezing

Thermostat and controlsA temperature control or sensor that fails can leave the compressor off, running nonstop or cycling at the wrong point.
Sealed systemA refrigerant leak or a compressor that will not start is the most expensive freezer repair and needs an EPA-certified technician. It is also less common than the parts above.
Condenser coilsDust on the condenser coils makes the system work harder and run warmer, especially for freezers kept in garages and utility rooms.

What Gets Fixed on a Alliance Freezer Call

Temperature and airflowThe technician measures the actual freezer temperature, checks that vents inside are not blocked by food or frost and listens for the evaporator fan.
Evaporator coil and defrostOn frost-free models the back panel comes off to look at the coil. A coil packed with frost points to the defrost heater, defrost thermostat, timer or control.
Door gasket and alignmentGaskets are checked for tears and gaps and the door or lid for sag. A poor seal shows up as frost near the opening and long run times.

Troubleshooting first? Start with lg freezer not freezing or freezer not freezing.

Repair or Replace Your Freezer?

A freezer repair is usually a fan, a defrost part, a control or a gasket plus labor. Reference ranges from published cost guides:

Repair an ice maker that is under five years old or whose parts are affordable; replace it if the repair costs more than a whole new assembly. Source: HomeGuide - How much does an ice maker cost to repair, replace, or buy new?

Ranges are published estimates, not quotes. See the freezer repair cost guide and when to repair or replace.

Local Notes for Alliance

Most freezer calls in Alliance come down to the same handful of parts: the defrost system, a fan, the temperature control, the door gasket and dirty condenser coils.

Nebraska does not license appliance repair technicians at the state level; contractors working on other people's property register with the Department of Labor, and trade licenses such as plumbing are handled by cities and villages. Source: Nebraska Department of Labor: Who Needs to Register

In Nebraska, you can check a license with the Nebraska Department of Labor contractor registration (Search Registered Contractors and Subcontractors) or report a problem to the Nebraska Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.

Questions to Ask a Alliance Repair Technician

  • What should I do with the food while I wait for the repair?
  • Do you work on chest and upright freezers as well as refrigerator freezers?
  • Is the technician certified to handle refrigerant if the problem turns out to be a leak or the compressor?

Freezer Repair FAQs: Alliance, NE

Why is my freezer warm but the motor is running?
The usual causes are a frosted-over evaporator from a failed defrost part, a fan that stopped, a dirty condenser, a door that is not sealing or a control problem. A refrigerant leak or compressor fault is less common. A technician checks each in order before replacing parts.
Is my freezer worth fixing?
Compare the repair quote with the price of a comparable new freezer and consider its age. Fans, defrost parts, thermostats and gaskets are usually worth fixing; a compressor or refrigerant repair on an older freezer often is not. Our repair-or-replace guide walks through it.
What does a freezer repair usually cost?
Most companies charge a service call or diagnostic fee that is often applied to the repair if you go ahead. Fans, defrost parts, thermostats and door gaskets are usually worth fixing on a freezer that is otherwise sound; sealed-system work costs more. Our freezer repair cost guide lists published ranges.
Do you repair chest and upright freezers?
Yes. Standalone chest and upright freezers use the same basic parts as the freezer section of a refrigerator: a compressor, condenser, evaporator, thermostat or control and, on frost-free models, a defrost system. Mention the type and whether it is manual or frost-free when you call.
