Viking Refrigerator Repair in Tarzana
Ranch houses and hillside builds either side of Ventura Boulevard, where refrigeration works hardest through a valley August.
Refrigeration we see here
- A unit that stops cycling off in August
- Valley heat is the whole story here. A condenser that copes in April cannot shed the same heat into a kitchen that is already hot, so the compressor never gets its rest and the fresh-food side starts drifting up in the afternoon.
- Dust and lint matted across the machine grille
- Hillside builds pull a lot of fine dust indoors, and it collects wherever the cabinet breathes — the top grille on a column, the toe kick on an undercounter. Cleaning the grille is an owner job; clearing the coil behind it is not, and a coil left matted will take a compressor down eventually.
- A condenser fan that has gone noisy, then quiet
- The noise is the bearing. The quiet afterwards is worse than the noise was, because the unit keeps trying to cool with nothing moving air across the coil.
- Wine cabinets in rooms that are not air conditioned
- A wine cabinet is specified for a room within a certain range, and a hot pantry in a valley summer takes it outside that. It shows as a cabinet that holds overnight and loses ground every afternoon.
Read the table above with the weather in mind: the first row is most of Tarzana for most of the summer and is not a fault at all. The rest are. Call Viking Repair Service Los Angeles at (213) 799-7879 if the food is slipping as well, rather than just the run time.

Questions from Tarzana
- It has run non-stop since the heat came. Is that a fault?
- Judge it by the food rather than by the noise. A valley kitchen at its hottest asks for long runs, and a cabinet holding its food while running is winning slowly. Food drifting while it runs non-stop is the version that needs a visit, and this week rather than next.
- Is clearing the grille worth doing before calling?
- Yes, and it occasionally ends the matter. Vacuum the machine grille, take anything off the top of the cabinet, and give it a full day. If nothing changes, the coil behind the grille is the next step and that is not an owner job. Call Viking Repair Service Los Angeles at (213) 799-7879.

Yellow, sooty flames on every burner after our remodel. Drywall dust had packed the ports and the air shutters underneath. He cleaned it all out and charged the $89 call, nothing added on top.
Hector S.Tarzana
Convection browned one side of a sheet pan and left the other raw. A damper behind the fan was stuck half closed. He freed and adjusted it, then baked a test tray of rolls to prove it.

Top shelves went warm while the freezer stayed rock hard. The air damper motor had stopped stepping open. Parts took two days and he called ahead both times. Milk lasts the week again.
