Got Damp Clothes?!

Try cleaning your dryer sensor. Build up from dryer sheets, detergents
and fabric softeners can cause the sensor strip in your dryer to read incorrectly,
                                                                   leaving your clothed damp.
Most sensors are on the back side of the filter housing or at the back side of the drum. Make sure you turn off the power to your dryer. Once you have located the sensor, remove the build up on the sensor or just replace the sensor. I recommend using a Scotch
Brite pad. Gently remove the build up with warm water. Then finishing up by wiping the sensor with a clean wet cloth. Turn back on the electrical power and give your damp clothes another drying. Good luck.

Is your Refrigerator running all of the time?

Is Your Refrigerator running all of the time? You may want to check your door gaskets.
 
A worn-out gasket can cause your fridge to run warm, and more often, leading to higher electric bills and wear and tear on your fridge.
  • Here are a couple of things to check for when inspecting your gasket:
  • Look for condensation or black mold. If you find either, the gasket should be replaced.
  • Take a dollar bill and close the refrigerator door on it. Try pulling on the bill slowly. If there's a slight drag on the bill, your gasket is okay. If the bill slides out easily then it's time for a new gasket. 
  • Schedule an appointment  with us (760) 902-1212. We will diagnose and service your Refrigerator.

Appliance tip of a stove ignitor

Know the Symptoms of a Bad Ignitor.
Gas ovens are preferred for their cooking precision. However, when an ignitor begins to go out, the temperature control becomes erratic.
Aggravating as it may be, this is actually your ignitor's way of telling you to replace it, before you're left with an oven full of raw food.
First things first...
  • Before jumping to conclusions, it's always best to dot your i's and cross your t's.
  • Make sure the oven is plugged in, getting power, and the gas valve is open. If you have an older oven with a mechanical timer, make sure it hasn't been accidentally bumped off the manual setting.
  • If all that checks out, and the oven still isn't firing up, then the ignitor's probably to blame.
But, my ignitor still glows...
  • Even if your ignitor is still producing that pretty, orange glow, it doesn't mean it's working properly. Without going into the technical details, basically as the ignitor gets older, the electrical current can't flow through it as well, and eventually not at all.
  • In fact, if it takes more than 3 minutes for the ignitor to fire up, it's most likely bad.
