You're not based in Belmont, so how fast can you actually get here?

We keep a technician on the Peninsula, in San Mateo County, specifically so Belmont and the rest of the Mid-Peninsula aren't a special trip from our San Ramon base. I won't promise same-day for every call, but Peninsula routing means we're usually looking at a day or two, not a week, and we confirm the window when you book.

How do I know if my Kenmore is really a Whirlpool, LG, or Frigidaire?

The first three digits of the model number on the data plate tell me. 106 means Whirlpool built it, 795 means LG, 253 means Frigidaire. Text me a photo of the plate inside the fridge cabinet and I can usually tell you which one you have and what commonly goes wrong on it before I arrive.

My fridge is in the garage on a sloped driveway. Does that change anything?

It changes the diagnosis more than the repair. Garage units on Belmont's hillside lots run through wider daily temperature swings, which stresses the defrost system and the door seal harder than a kitchen fridge ever sees. I check both of those first on any hillside garage call, on top of whatever brought me out.

Kenmore in Belmont

Kenmore in Belmont kitchens.

Belmont climbs fast once you leave El Camino, and a lot of the houses on the hill above Ralston Avenue and around Water Dog Lake still keep an old Kenmore going, often as the garage backup once the kitchen got a new fridge. The wide swing between a foggy morning and an afternoon sun pocket on those hillside garages is harder on a compressor than most people realize, and it shows up in the failures I see out here.

The Kenmore badge covers three different builders depending on the decade, Whirlpool, LG, or Frigidaire, and the model prefix on the data plate tells me which one I am actually working on before I order a part. We keep a technician based on the Peninsula in San Mateo County, so a Belmont call gets routed with stops in San Carlos, San Mateo, and Foster City rather than driven in from across the bay.

ADRIUM Service Solutions is owner-operated, Andrew Kuznetsov, CSLB #1136642, EPA Section 608 Universal certified. The $99 diagnostic is waived once you approve the repair, every quote is written before we touch anything, and we work all seven days.

Water and ice systems

The water inlet valve, a common fridge leak.

Every fridge with a dispenser or ice maker has a water inlet valve. The fittings can leak under the cabinet, or the solenoid fails and the dispenser and ice maker stop getting water.

Laundry

How to spot a bad washer drain pump.

LG and Samsung washer drain pumps side by side. When a washer will not drain or hums at the end of a cycle, this small pump is the usual suspect, and the two brands fail in different ways.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Defrost drain icing on hillside garage units. Garage refrigerators on the steeper streets above Alameda de las Pulgas swing through more temperature range in a day than a kitchen unit ever sees, and that extra cycling backs up the defrost drain with ice. Water starts pooling under the crisper drawers or the freezer frosts over between defrost cycles. I clear the drain tube, check the defrost heater and thermostat, and confirm the door seal isn't letting in the extra humidity that started the problem.
Start relay failures on LG-built 795 Elite bottom freezers. Belmont's newer remodels around Davey Glen and Cipriani often have the LG-built Kenmore Elite, and the start relay is the part that gives out first. You hear a click, a pause, then nothing, and the fridge slowly warms. I meter the compressor windings before I replace the relay, because a relay swap on a shorted compressor is money spent for nothing.
Door gasket splitting on older Frigidaire-built 253 side-by-sides. The Kenmores that got demoted to the garage as a second fridge, common on the hill where the main kitchen was remodeled years ago, tend to be Frigidaire-built 253 side-by-sides from the 2000s. The gasket dries out and splits at the corner first, the compressor runs long trying to hold temperature, and the electric bill creeps up before anyone traces it back to a two-dollar part.
