"We had this company build a new master-suite in our home. That included floor plan changes, tiling the bath, installing a new shower, a jetted tub and a new toilet. Only 3 months after many things fall apart. A glass shelf almost fell in the tub when my wife was in it. It almost injured her. Towel racks came of the walls leaving giant holes behind. The brand new tub stoped draining. I brought in a licensed plumber to fix that and he told me he never saw "such a sh*tshow". And conveniently Mike told me in the middle of he project that his company declared bankruptcy, so no point suing him."

Warning signs of compressor failure include unusual operating sounds (clicking, buzzing, or humming), inadequate cooling despite the fan running, excessive heat around the compressor area, and frequent cycling on and off. Your refrigerator might also run continuously without reaching the proper temperature, causing food to spoil quickly. Before concluding it's a compressor issue, verify that your refrigerator has power and the correct temperature settings.
The value proposition depends on several factors. Compressor replacement makes financial sense for refrigerators under seven to 10 years old, especially premium models or those still under warranty. For units approaching or exceeding their expected 12 to 15-year lifespan, or when repair costs approach half the price of a new refrigerator, replacing the entire appliance offers better long-term value.
Refrigerator compressors function effectively for eight to 15 years, though this varies based on usage patterns, maintenance regularity, and manufacturing quality. Environmental factors like ambient temperature, power supply stability, and ventilation also impact longevity. Regular maintenance practices—including coil cleaning, ensuring adequate airflow around the unit, and avoiding overfilling—can significantly extend compressor life.
Refrigerator compressor replacement should be performed exclusively by EPA-certified professionals. The process involves handling refrigerant, which requires special licensing, training, and equipment to manage safely and legally. Amateur attempts risk environmentally harmful refrigerant leaks, component damage, warranty voiding, and potential safety hazards. The specialized tools and expertise required make this repair particularly unsuitable for DIY efforts.
