At Culver City Elite Repair, we work on refrigerators of all types, from classic models to luxury brands like Sub-Zero, Viking, Wolf, Miele, and Thermador. Our service area includes Culver City, Palms, Mar Vista, Venice, Playa Vista, Westchester, and West Los Angeles.
How Your Refrigerator Works
A refrigerator operates by circulating refrigerant through a cycle that absorbs heat from inside and releases it outside. The compressor pumps the refrigerant, and the condenser coils dissipate the heat. Fans keep the cool air moving inside to ensure consistent temperatures.
Best Practices for Refrigerator Care
- Clean condenser coils regularly to improve efficiency.
- Inspect the door gasket to keep the cold air inside.
- Avoid placing hot food directly inside — it forces the compressor to work harder.
- Replace the water filter on schedule for cleaner ice and water.
- Monitor temperature settings to ensure optimal performance.
Our technicians can provide a full annual tune-up, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting seals, and ensuring all mechanical components are working properly.
