Kenmore Fridge Repair – Canton, OH (596.79872990 refrigerator. Maytag washer. MVWC200XW1)

A Canton homeowner called about their Kenmore refrigerator running constantly. When we arrived at the 39th Street SW location, our diagnosis revealed the refrigerator was low on Freon, causing the compressor to work overtime trying to maintain proper temperatures.

The Problem

The customer reported their fridge runs constantly. This type of issue typically indicates the cooling system isn’t maintaining proper temperatures efficiently, forcing the compressor to work non-stop.

Diagnosis

Our inspection found the refrigerator was low on Freon. When refrigerant levels drop below optimal, the system cannot transfer heat effectively, causing the compressor to run continuously as it struggles to reach the set temperature.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: No parts recorded
• Work performed: Addressed low Freon condition
• Result: Refrigerator cycling returned to normal operation

Is It Worth Repairing?

Kenmore refrigerators are reliable appliances that typically provide 10-15 years of service. Refrigerant issues on older units can sometimes indicate seal problems that may recur, but for mid-range age units, addressing cooling system problems is usually cost-effective compared to replacement.

Maintenance Tips for Kenmore Refrigerators

• Clean condenser coils every 6 months to maintain efficient heat transfer and reduce compressor workload
• Check door seals regularly and clean gaskets with mild soap to ensure proper seal integrity
• Keep refrigerator away from heat sources and maintain adequate airflow around the unit
