Gearing Up for Spring: Be Sure Appliances Are Ready

Nearly all appliances from major brands regularly require ongoing maintenance and preventative maintenance.

Spring is on the way, and with its arrival comes more social gatherings, more barbecues, and even more use of kitchen appliances. Appliances such as dishwashers to barbeques will need more attention with the rise in both temperature and shared meals. Consider having appliances inspected, maintained, and repaired to prepare for increased use this season.

How to identify necessary maintenance

Nearly all appliances from major brands regularly require ongoing maintenance and preventative maintenance. This type of maintenance is similar to changing the oil in a car. It helps clean things up, tighten wiring, and ensure the system runs as best as possible. Consult the user manual for each appliance, noting recommended maintenance steps.

For example, it may be beneficial to have a trained technician provide a full inspection and complete maintenance for Wolf, Bosch, Viking, or SubZero refrigerators. During the spring, temperatures warm up, and the refrigerator might work harder. Many people don’t keep air conditioning running during this season, so the refrigerator might work harder to maintain cold temperatures. This can create significant wear and tear on the system, especially if it isn’t in the best working order.
