Whether you should replace or repair your oven depends on several factors, including the age and condition of the appliance, the cost of repairs, and your budget. Here are some things to consider:
Cost of repairs: If the cost of repairing your oven is more than 50% of the cost of a new appliance, it may be more cost-effective to replace it. That’s what we recommend to most of our clients. However, if the repairs are minor and inexpensive, repairing the oven may be a better option.
Age of the oven: If your oven is more than 10-15 years old, it may be more cost-effective to replace it rather than repair it. Older appliances are more prone to breakdowns and may be less energy-efficient than newer models.
Frequency of repairs: If your oven requires frequent repairs or has multiple issues, it may be a sign that it’s time to replace it. Continuously repairing an appliance can add up to significant costs over time, and you may end up spending more on repairs than a replacement.
Efficiency: Newer ovens are often more energy-efficient than older models, which can save you money on your energy bills in the long run.
Features: If you are looking for new features or more advanced technology, replacing your oven may be the best option. Upgrading to a newer model can offer features like self-cleaning, convection cooking, and smart controls.
In summary, if your oven is old, requires frequent repairs, or the cost of repairs is high, replacing it may be a better option.
But, if the repairs are minor and inexpensive, repairing the oven may be a good choice. Ultimately, the decision should be based on your needs, budget, and the condition of the appliance.
If you need help deciding, call us and our technicians will give you recommendations. If you decide to purchase a new one, we can install it as well.
If your oven stops working, start by checking the owner’s manual. If you don’t find good solutions there, here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue and potentially resolve it:
Check the power supply: Ensure that the oven is properly plugged into a working power outlet. You can try plugging another appliance into the same outlet to confirm if the problem lies with the power supply.
Check the circuit breaker: If the oven is not receiving power, check the circuit breaker in your electrical panel. If it has tripped, reset it and see if the oven starts working. If the breaker trips repeatedly, there may be an underlying electrical issue that requires professional assistance.
Verify the oven controls: Make sure that the oven controls are set correctly. Sometimes, the oven may not start if the timer, delay start, or child lock functions are activated. Refer to the oven’s user manual for instructions on adjusting the controls.
Examine the heating element of the oven: If the oven is not heating, check if the heating elements are visibly damaged or broken. Faulty oven elements may need to be replaced by a professional.
Test the oven’s internal temperature: If the oven seems to be working, but the food is not cooking properly or is taking longer than usual, it’s possible that the internal temperature is inaccurate. You can use an oven thermometer to verify the temperature and adjust it accordingly.
If you’ve gone through the above steps and the oven still isn’t working, or if you’re unsure about performing any further troubleshooting, it’s best to contact a professional appliance repair service. We have the expertise to diagnose and repair complex oven issues safely.
Remember, when dealing with electrical appliances, always prioritize your safety. If you’re unsure or uncomfortable with any troubleshooting steps, it’s advisable to seek professional help to avoid the risk of electric shock or further damage to the appliance.
Whether it is worth repairing an electric oven depends on several factors, such as:
– The cost of repairs.
– The age of the oven.
– The overall condition of your electric oven:
– Availability of parts.
– Energy efficiency.
Also, take into account your personal attachment to the oven. If you have sentimental value attached to it or prefer the features and performance of your current oven, repairing it might be the preferred option, even if it is slightly more expensive.
Ultimately, the decision to repair or replace an electric oven depends on the specific circumstances and your individual preferences.
Call us and we’ll give you expert recommendations on what’s best for your particular case. We’ll give you a free estimate over the phone as well.
If your electric oven is not heating up, there could be several possible reasons for this issue, such as:
– Power supply issues: Ensure that the oven is properly plugged into a working power outlet. Check if the circuit breaker or fuse controlling the oven’s power has tripped or blown. Resetting the breaker or replacing the fuse may resolve the problem.
– Faulty heating element: Electric ovens typically have one or more heating elements responsible for generating heat. If a heating element is defective or damaged, the oven may not heat up properly or at all.
You can visually inspect the heating elements for any visible signs of damage or disconnection. If a heating element is faulty, it will likely need to be replaced by a professional technician.
– Temperature sensor malfunction: Electric ovens have temperature sensors that monitor the internal temperature. If the temperature sensor is faulty or malfunctioning, it can cause inaccurate temperature readings or prevent the oven from heating. A technician can test the sensor’s functionality and replace it if necessary.
– Oven control board issues: The control board, also known as the clock/timer or electronic control panel, regulates the oven’s functions. If the control board is defective or malfunctioning, it may not send the proper signals to activate the heating elements, resulting in no heat. Repairing or replacing the control board may be required.
– Wiring problems: Electrical wiring issues within the oven can prevent proper power distribution to the heating elements, causing a lack of heat. This can be a complex issue that requires the expertise of a professional technician to diagnose and repair.
– Other components: Various other components, such as the oven fan, relays, thermostats, or selector switches, can impact the heating function of an electric oven. If any of these components fail, they may need to be replaced.
If you are unsure about diagnosing or fixing the problem yourself, contact our professional appliance repair service. We have the knowledge and tools to identify the specific cause of the issue and carry out the appropriate repairs.
