What Tiffin Owners Should Know
Most wine cooler calls in Tiffin come down to airflow and clearance, fans, the door seal, the controls and, on thermoelectric units, the cooling module.
Ohio has no state license for appliance repair; the Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board licenses commercial contractors in plumbing, hydronics, refrigeration, HVAC and electrical, and residential contractor work is generally overseen locally.
