We recently received a call about a Maytag top freezer fridge that wasn’t cooling properly. Our technician found an ice build-up where the copper line from the fridge’s compressor meets the aluminum evaporator coils. This issue, often resulting from defects in robotic welding, is becoming increasingly common. Unfortunately, this fault can lead to refrigerant leaks and a non-working fridge within just two years. When we encounter this problem, we advise purchasing a new refrigerator rather than opting for costly repairs. Rest assured, our clients only pay for the initial service call and receive valuable guidance on selecting a more reliable brand.
