Refrigerator Repair
Is It Better to Replace or Repair My Refrigerator?
Generally, it’s better (and cheaper) to repair your refrigerator if it is relatively new and if the issue is minor and fixable. However, if the appliance is older or you’re facing overly high repair costs, replacing it with a newer, more energy-efficient model may be a smart long-term investment.
