Repair or Replace Your Wine Fridge?

- Service call: $45–$150 per visit Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair a freezer?
- Technician labor: $100–$250 per hour Source: Fixr - How much does it cost to repair a refrigerator?

Around Byron
Most wine cooler calls in Byron come down to airflow and clearance, fans, the door seal, the controls and, on thermoelectric units, the cooling module.
Minnesota has no state license for mechanical contractors or their workers; businesses contracting for gas, heating, cooling or refrigeration work file a mechanical contractor bond with the Department of Labor and Industry, and some cities require their own licenses or competency cards.

In Minnesota, you can check a license with the DLI License and Registration Lookup or report a problem to the Minnesota Attorney General's Office, Consumer Assistance.
