It is easy to overlook one of the major components of your appliances; one which affects the efficient running of your washing machine, dishwasher, refrigerator, dryer or any appliance you plug into a wall socket.
Is the plug securely fastened into the wall socket? Do you switch off your wall socket before inserting the plug, then switch back on? Take the time, every time, to make sure the plug of your fridge, dishwasher, washer, dryer or freezer is inserted correctly while the wall socket is switched off. Once the plug is inserted fully, then switch your appliance back on.
If the plug is not securely inserted, your appliance may be working overtime, putting the motor or compressor at risk, as a bad connection will cause arcing which leads to inefficient running of the appliance as the motor or compressor will be working extra hard. This will particularly affect a fridge. Be careful of wedging a washer or fridge too tightly against the wall as this may affect the plug too. And be sure to check that the plugs and cords of your dishwasher, fridge, dryer or washer have no damage. Look after this important but often overlooked aspect of your appliances and give us a call at Albion Appliance Service if you need help with any issues you have with your whitegoods.
