Homes in Dartmouth

Know the home, know the fault

Properties along the western bank of the River Dart estuary range from late sixteenth and early seventeenth-century houses to newer builds around the Britannia Avenue area. Older dwellings often have a compact kitchen or dining space where a wine cooler might be fitted. These units need adequate ventilation to function correctly. When built into tight cabinets or placed flush against a wall, the compressor and condenser coils can struggle to dissipate heat. This lack of airflow forces the cooling system to work harder to maintain the set temperature, which can lead to premature component failure. A wine chiller that will not hold its temperature might have a failing compressor, a depleted refrigerant charge, or a faulty thermostat. Dual-zone models use separate sensors and fans to keep red and white wines at different temperatures, and a failure in one of these components can leave a single zone too warm or too cold. Condensation and misting on the glass door usually point to a degraded door seal letting ambient air inside, though it can also happen if the internal circulation fan stops running. Control faults might cause the display to show error codes or become unresponsive, preventing any adjustments to the cooling settings. We look at coolers not holding the set temperature, dual-zone models with one zone failing, condensation and misting on the door, alongside fan and control faults. We repair a range of electric appliances, but we do not work on gas cookers, gas hobs or any gas appliance.
