Problems You Can Fix
Perhaps your refrigerator is much too warm or perhaps your ice maker is clogged and not dispensing ice. Sometimes you will find disgusting floating bits in your water dispenser. No matter what it is, these problems are actually fairly easy to tackle on your own. Sometimes the solution is a bit more complicated and sometimes it is relatively easy.
On a Wolf refrigerator, if you find that your refrigerator is much too warm, then you will want to just turn the cooling dial up. All too often the problem is that the cooling dial was accidentally nudged or the temperature shifted a bit too much and no one adjusted the refrigerator to compensate. There is an exception though. If you find that your refrigerator is painfully warm and your freezer is just right, then you have a problem. If you turn the dial up then your freezer will be too cold and you will get frost on your frozen foods. This can ruin meat and vegetables with freezer burn. You can often solve this by unplugging your refrigerator, opening the back panel, and cleaning or replacing the fan back there. Other, more complicated issues can cause this and so if the problem persists then call Wolf appliance repair Sherman Oaks to have a trained technician examine the issue. You may need to replace some of your refrigerator parts if it comes to this.
If the water from your water dispenser is disgusting then there is really only one thing that can be wrong with it: you need to replace your filter. You should be replacing the water filter in your Wolf refrigerator every six months to ensure that your water is clean. Filters get gunk in them, that is their job. A filter that remains clean forever is doing nothing for you.
Ice makers can be tricky beasts but are not impossible to fix on your own. If your ice maker is no longer dispensing ice or if it is dispensing less ice than normal then it is because your heating coil is not functioning properly. The heating coil prevents ice from sticking to the walls of your ice maker and keeps the ice maker flowing properly. Unplug your ice maker and take a look inside of it. Your heating coil may need to be replaced or it may not be plugged in properly.
