Common problems
Sound familiar?
These are the refrigerator problems David sees most often in Broward County, and what usually causes them.
Fridge warm, freezer fine
Dual refrigeration lets one sealed system fail on its own. David pins down which side it is, with no guesswork.
Cooling weak on both sides
A clogged, dirty condenser is the number-one cause on Sub-Zero units; David deep-cleans it to restore airflow.
Door not sealing tight
The magnetic vacuum gasket wears out and breaks the seal, letting humid Broward air in; David replaces it.
Ice buildup on evaporator
A failing evaporator fan or defrost circuit lets frost pile up and choke cooling; David repairs it.
Temperature drifting from setting
A faulty thermistor or control board misreads the temperature and runs the compressor at the wrong times. David tests the sensors and replaces the one that failed.
Loud hum or rattle
A condenser or evaporator fan motor with worn bearings gets noisy before it quits; David replaces the motor.
Water pooling inside
A frozen or clogged defrost drain line backs up onto the floor of the cabinet; David clears it.
Panel dark or unresponsive
A failed control board or a burned power connection kills the display; David traces the fault and repairs the board.
Compressor short-cycling
The compressor or start components on one sealed system struggle in Florida heat. David diagnoses which system is at fault.
Wine unit running warm
Beverage and wine models share the dual design. A dirty condenser or a fan fault lets bottles warm up, and David fixes the cause.

Why it breaks
What actually goes wrong
Your Sub-Zero runs two separate sealed systems, so the fridge side can quit while the freezer stays rock-solid, or the reverse. That alone throws most technicians off. David services these built-ins in Broward County, from full-size columns to under-counter wine and beverage units, and knows the dual-refrigeration design cold.
Sub-Zero's biggest enemy is a condenser packed with dust and pet hair, which chokes cooling on these built-in units. Florida heat pushes both compressors harder, humidity attacks the magnetic vacuum gaskets until they no longer seal, and summer power surges hit the control board. Add years of defrost-drain sludge and one sealed system can fail while the other keeps running.

What customers say about David
David was able to come the same day to fix my fridge water dispenser and made it easy. Friendly, honest, and efficient. Explained the issue and had it working in no time. Highly recommend.
Highly recommend! He was incredibly responsive and reliable, and was able to come out quickly to fix my dishwasher. He clearly explained the issue and walked me through the repair process so I understood exactly what was going on. What really stood out was that he went above and beyond by giving me helpful tips on ongoing maintenance for my other appliances to help prevent future problems. Honest, knowledgeable, and professional. I wouldn’t hesitate to call him again.
I can’t thank David enough for fixing my oven. My neighbor recommended him, and I’m so glad they did. He was quick to respond, explained exactly what was going on, ordered the parts, and got everything working again. Reliable, easy to work with, and clearly knows what he’s doing. Highly recommend.
FAQ
Common questions about refrigerator repair
Why is my Sub-Zero fridge warm but the freezer still frozen?
That's the dual-refrigeration design: two independent sealed systems, so one can fail alone. David pinpoints the failed side.
How often should my Sub-Zero condenser be cleaned?
Every 6 to 12 months, especially if your home is dusty. A clogged condenser is the top cause of poor cooling on Sub-Zero units, and David can deep-clean it during his visit.
Do you service Sub-Zero built-in and wine units?
Yes. David handles Sub-Zero refrigerator repair on full-size built-in columns, under-counter units, and wine and beverage models, all of which use the same dual-refrigeration and vacuum-gasket design he knows inside out.
Can a broken door gasket really stop my Sub-Zero from cooling?
Absolutely. Sub-Zero's magnetic vacuum gasket must pull a tight seal; once it hardens or tears, humid air pours in and the unit runs nonstop. David replaces it.
