Careful repair for premium refrigeration

That means a repair needs skill and care. We read the model and serial tag, test the fans, sensors, and controls, and take care around your panels and trim. You get a written estimate first, and honest advice on repair or replace.

Dual refrigeration explained
Sub-Zero is known for using separate cooling systems for the fridge and the freezer. Here is why that matters for repair.
Two systems, two jobs
The fridge and freezer are cooled separately, so each can hold its own ideal temperature.
Fresher food
Separate systems help keep the fridge more humid and the freezer very dry.
Parts that fail
Fans, sensors, ice makers, and controls are the most common faults, not the whole unit.
Filters on schedule
Water and air filters need changing on time to protect performance.

Repair or replace your Sub-Zero?
A Sub-Zero is costly to replace and often built into custom cabinets, so repair is usually the better choice. Even at higher ages, many units are worth fixing. We use the 50% rule as a guide, and we look at the fault and the condition of the whole unit before we advise you.
Built-in and custom fits
Replacing can mean new panels and cabinet work, so repair often wins.
Fans, sensors, and valves
Common, fair-value repairs that keep a Sub-Zero going.
Sealed-system faults
Costly to fix. We compare the price with replacement before you decide.
