Freezer Repair

Defrost circuit, evaporator and door-seal work on Sub-Zero freezer columns and built-in freezer sections.

How it lands on the phone

  1. Solid frost slab building on the rear panel behind the baskets
  2. Freezer drifting up to 15°F and ice cream going soft
  3. Loud rattling or buzzing that stops when you open the door
  4. Door frame sweating and frost forming around the gasket

What happens on the visit

Temperatures logged at both compartments before anything comes apart, then the sealed system read under gauges and the defrost and control circuits tested in sequence. A Sub-Zero rarely fails in a way that needs guessing — it fails in a way that needs measuring.

You get the cause, the reading it came from, and a firm number for parts and labour. Nothing is opened up or ordered until you have said yes to that number.

  • Door frame was sweating and frost formed around the gasket every night. He traced it to a failed door heater circuit. Arrived at the very end of the window, but the diagnosis was right.

  • Undercounter unit out on the deck stopped holding below zero. Salt air had eaten the condenser fins away. Cleaned, resealed the door, and it has held steady through a warm week.

  • Buzzing that stopped whenever I opened the freezer door. The evaporator fan blade was catching an ice ridge from a lazy drain. Cleared the drain, new blade, and the noise is gone.
