The edge of our Liebherr door is wet on foggy mornings. Is something broken?

Not necessarily. A little condensation on the frame can come from the damp air alone. Water that beads along one side of the door, or a frame that stays wet all day, usually means cold air is escaping past the seal. We check the gasket and how the door sits against the cabinet before replacing anything.

Our Serramonte house keeps the Liebherr freezer in the garage. Does the damp matter?

It does, mostly for the gasket. A cool garage is easy on the compressor, but rubber ages faster in wet air, and a seal that has stiffened lets frost build at the door. Keep storage clear of the door so it closes fully, and call us if frost starts collecting at one corner.

The display on our Westlake Liebherr shows a temperature alarm. What should we do until the visit?

Keep the doors closed and put a thermometer in a glass of water on a middle shelf. If the fresh-food side is still under 40 degrees, the food is fine for now. Write down any code on the display and give it to us when you book, since it helps us bring the right part.

Liebherr in Daly City

Liebherr in Daly City kitchens.

Daly City sits where Highway 1 meets 280, and the fog stays most of the year. Damp air is hard on rubber. Door gaskets on a Liebherr stiffen and lose their grip sooner here than they would inland, and once a seal lets moist air into the cabinet, that moisture ends up as frost on the evaporator and a compressor that rarely rests.

Most of the housing is post-war tract stock, including the Doelger-built homes around Westlake, and those kitchens were drawn for a standard refrigerator box. A built-in Liebherr in one of them sits in an opening that was widened or rebuilt during a remodel, so we look at how that opening breathes. We cover 94014, 94015 and Brisbane. The diagnostic is $99 and is credited toward the repair when you go ahead.

Common repairs we do

Common repairs we handle.

Door gasket gone hard in the damp air. A stiff gasket stops pulling tight to the cabinet, usually first along the hinge side or the bottom edge. Early signs are frost near the door and a compressor that runs longer than it used to. We check the seal all the way around, reshape it if the rubber still has life, and replace it when it has taken a permanent set.
Defrost water backing up inside the cabinet. Defrost water on a Liebherr runs off the evaporator to a drain that can clog over the years. When it backs up, water pools under the bottom drawer or freezes in the trough behind the rear panel. We clear the drain, make sure water runs through freely, and melt out the ice dam that often forms behind a blockage.
Column running long in a rebuilt cabinet opening. A built-in column moves its heat out through the grille. If a remodel left that air path tight, or the condenser has matted over with lint and dust, the compressor runs longer and the cabinet warms when the kitchen is busy. We clean the condenser, test the fan and check the grille clearances before we suspect anything bigger.
