How fast do you get to Livermore from San Ramon?

About 20 minutes via 580, or over Highway 84 to the south side of town. Livermore runs on the same loop as Pleasanton and Dublin, which is our home cluster, so same-day and next-day slots are normal.

Should I even keep a refrigerator in a garage this hot?

You can, but pick the unit for the job. Older simple Kenmores handle garage heat better than modern electronically controlled units. I will tell you honestly whether your specific model can live out there or whether summer failures will keep coming.

The freezer holds a half a steer. What if it fails on a weekend?

Call us anyway, we schedule 7 days a week. A loaded chest freezer holds temperature for a day or two if you keep the lid shut, which is usually enough time for us to get there, diagnose, and repair before anything is lost.

Kenmore in Livermore

Kenmore in Livermore kitchens.

Livermore is the hottest part of our service area, and refrigerators feel it. A Kenmore in a Livermore garage works against 100 degree summer air, and that heat kills start components, dries out door gaskets, and pushes marginal compressors over the edge earlier than anywhere else we service. Chest freezers holding harvest and Costco stock are a big share of our calls here.

Kenmore badges cover machines from three factories. Whirlpool, LG, and Frigidaire all built them in different years, and the model prefix on the data plate is the only reliable way to know which parts fit. I read it first, every time, because a 2015 and a 2005 Kenmore can be strangers to each other internally.

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.

Heat-stressed start relay and overload. Summer garage heat makes the compressor work at the top of its range, and the start relay is the first casualty. The telltale click-pause-click with a warming box is the most common July call we get from Livermore. When the compressor windings meter clean, the fix is quick and inexpensive.
Baked door gaskets leaking cold. Gaskets in a hot garage harden and shrink years before their kitchen counterparts. The unit runs almost continuously, frost lines the freezer, and energy use climbs. A correct-profile replacement gasket restores the seal and takes real load off an aging compressor.
Ice maker quitting during peak demand. Ice makers fail in summer because that is when they work hardest. On Whirlpool-built 106 units I test the module directly at its test points, then the inlet valve and fill tube, so the quote names the one part that actually failed instead of a shotgun list.
