Know the home, know the fault

Properties on the south western edge of Dartmoor include grand villas built during the late Victorian and Edwardian periods, alongside several bed and breakfast businesses serving walkers. When a property hosts visitors, the kitchen equipment works hard. A large house might rely on a substantial electric oven to feed a full dining room, while a guest house needs reliable cooking facilities for breakfast service. Heavy use accelerates wear on moving parts and heating elements. When an electric oven stops heating, the fault is usually a failed element. A fan oven element can break down internally, leaving the fan running and the thermostat light on while the cavity remains cold. Uneven cooking happens if the fan motor fails to circulate the hot air, or if one element in a multi-function oven stops working. Heavy use in a busy household or guest accommodation puts strain on door hinges and seals, allowing heat to escape and forcing the appliance to work longer to maintain temperature. We also investigate ovens that trip the electrics, which happens when insulation inside a heating component breaks down and shorts to earth. Faulty thermostats, controls and clocks can also prevent the appliance from switching on at all. Driving past Roborough Down, we repair appliances in customers' homes. Our visits cover electric ovens that will not heat or only heat on some functions, uneven cooking, fan oven faults and ovens that trip the power. We look at door hinges, seals and glass, alongside faulty thermostats, controls and clocks. We repair electric and induction cooking appliances only, so we do not work on gas cookers, gas hobs or any gas appliance.
