What Causes Appliance Malfunctions?

Written by Casey Shearns on . Posted in .

Your home’s appliances are essential to your everyday life. They help you to accomplish far more tasks than you realize, from cooking your meals to keeping your clothing clean and everything in between! However, like most things in life, appliances aren’t perfect. They have the potential to break down and malfunction over time, which could potentially lead to costly damages that you’ll need to repair. The best way to avoid these types of damages is to learn what causes appliances to malfunction in the first place – we’ll show you the leading causes of this below!

Lack of Proper Maintenance

When was the last time you actually took time to take care of your appliances? If you can’t recall, it’s a sign that you might need to start! Perhaps the biggest cause of appliance malfunctions is neglecting to take proper care of them. Most of the big problems that you’ll find with household appliances are linked to improper care, so you’ll want to make sure you give them the proper maintenance that is recommended by the manufacturer.

Overloaded Circuits

Do you ever wonder how household appliances are so effective in the way they run things? It’s because they use a lot of power to get it done! The amount of power that each household appliance uses implies that you shouldn’t have too many appliances coming from the same power source. When you do this, it causes the circuits to overload in each machine, which could damage it – and even cause it to catch fire! The best way to fix this is to spread your appliances throughout the house. Don’t use the same extension cord for two appliances!

Unskilled Technicians

If you’ve had a problem with your household appliances before, you’ve likely consulted with a technician to get it repaired. However, did you do the appropriate research into your technician before you hired them? Unskilled technicians are one of the leading causes of faulty appliances. Their attempts to fix your problems may end up leading to new ones if they don’t know what they’re doing. In order to fix this problem, make sure you do your research on your technicians if you’re going to hire one. The more confident you are, the better!

All I have to say is WOW and FANTASTIC. I just got done building out my new professional office with Soil-Away’s construction division and they went ABOVE and BEYOND. Scott and Mike, the carpenters are skilled artisans. The project got done on time and the project came in on budget! The finished results have been blowing people away. Much better than I could have anticipated. Anyone is welcome to come to our office, Bright Light Chiropractic in Hooksett to check out the fine work they did. Simply can’t sing enough praises for them. Sorry that the picture doesn’t do the job justice. Thank you Jack and your team. -Dr. Jay

Since day one, I’ve known the owner, Jack, to be a hard-working and selfless leader. Through the efforts of him and his team, he was able to restore my flooded restaurant to tip-top shape. I was amazed with Jack’s orderliness throughout the entire process. Jack has proven to me that he is trustworthy, as both a friend and an individual in the work environment.

Highly recommend Soil-Away. A pipe in our upstairs bathroom gave and sent water down through a wall for at least a day before we noticed water dripping through our kitchen ceiling. Our insurance put us in touch with Soil-Away and they were at our house the next morning to assess the damage and dry things out. Joe, Ray and Tom were phenomenal to work with. They explained every part of the process to us and were very professional and friendly. If you have to deal with similar issues call Soil-Away, you won’t regret it.
