If an Appliance Has Been Exposed to Floodwater
If water gets into an appliance but it looks dry on the outside, that doesn’t mean it’s safe to use.
Florida emergency guidance published by the Village of Estero advises against using wet electrical equipment. If an affected appliance is still connected to power, the electrical supply should be made safe before the equipment is evaluated.
Do not repeatedly plug in or restart a refrigerator, washer, dryer, dishwasher, or other appliance that has been exposed to water to see whether it still works. Water can affect electrical components, wiring, controls, motors, and connections that may not be visible from the outside.
The next step depends on how much water reached the appliance and which components were exposed. In some situations, evaluation may show that repair is possible; in others, replacement may be the safer or more practical option.
Using Appliances With a Generator During an Outage
A generator can keep essential equipment running during an outage, but appliances should not simply be connected without considering the generator’s capacity and the way power is being supplied.
The Village of Estero warns against connecting a portable generator directly to a wall outlet because backfeeding can create a serious electrical hazard and damage the home’s electrical system. For permanently installed standby generators, Estero’s permitting requirements include electrical load calculations and transfer-switch specifications.
If you plan to keep a refrigerator or freezer running on generator power, make sure the generator and connection method are appropriate for the electrical load. Avoid repeatedly connecting and disconnecting an appliance if power is unstable.
After normal power returns, check that refrigerators and freezers are cooling normally and that electronic controls on other appliances respond as expected. If an appliance behaves differently after the outage, diagnosis can help determine whether the problem is within the appliance or its electrical supply.
Commercial Refrigeration for Different Estero Businesses
Hotels and extended-stay properties in Estero may have refrigeration and kitchen equipment operating in breakfast areas, staff kitchens, food-service spaces, and other parts of the property.
When a problem occurs, note the equipment location, the exact symptom, and when staff first noticed it. For refrigeration equipment, check and record the actual temperature. For an ice machine, note whether production has slowed or stopped completely. For a dishwasher, note whether the problem involves filling, draining, heating, or completing the cycle.
If the problem is intermittent, let us know when it usually appears. Avoid repeatedly resetting equipment or changing temperature and control settings before the diagnostic, since that can make the original problem harder to reproduce.
When scheduling service, provide the equipment type and brand, its location within the property, any displayed error code, and access instructions for the technician. These details can help make the service visit more efficient.
We service commercial refrigerators and freezers, reach-in and walk-in equipment, ice machines, refrigerated prep equipment, dishwashers, cooking equipment, and other commercial kitchen appliances.

Appliance Repair FAQ
Can you repair more than one appliance during the same service visit?
Yes. If you have problems with more than one appliance, mention each one when scheduling so we can prepare for the service visit. Provide the appliance type, brand, and a brief description of each problem.
Do you service older appliances if parts are still available?
Yes. We service older appliances as long as the necessary parts are still available. Our technician can diagnose the problem, check what is needed for the repair, and help you determine whether repairing the appliance makes sense.
I have a less common or commercial appliance brand. Can you service it?
We service a wide range of residential and commercial appliance brands. When scheduling, provide the brand and model number if available so we can confirm service for your specific equipment.
Do I receive an estimate before the repair begins?
Yes. After diagnosing the appliance and identifying the problem, we explain the recommended repair and provide an estimate before repair work begins.
Do I need to know what's wrong with my appliance before scheduling service?
No. You don’t need to diagnose the problem yourself or know which part has failed. Just tell us what you’ve noticed, even if it’s only an unusual noise, a leak, an error code, or a change in how the appliance normally works. Our technician will diagnose the problem and explain what needs to be repaired.
