Fridge warm, freezer still solid
Air rather than refrigerant, nine times in ten. The evaporator fan has seized or the defrost circuit stopped cycling, so the cold is made but never delivered to the top half.
Kitchen · Keller, Texas
A fridge rarely dies outright. It slides, quietly, and spoiled milk is usually the last symptom rather than the first. Side-by-sides, French doors, built-ins and the second one in the garage.
Call us directly
Kitchen units, built-ins and the second fridge out in the garage. Evaporator fans, defrost heaters and inlet valves travel with the technician rather than arriving later.
Coverage
Open every day, 7:00 a.m. until 11:00 p.m.
Symptoms
Six symptoms account for most of the refrigeration work we do here. Yours is very likely among them.
Air rather than refrigerant, nine times in ten. The evaporator fan has seized or the defrost circuit stopped cycling, so the cold is made but never delivered to the top half.
A compressor that never rests is working against something. Perished door gasket, coils furred up with dust, or a thermostat no longer reading the box correctly.
That is the defrost circuit. Start at the heater, move to the thermostat, suspect the board last. Cost climbs in that same direction.
Normally a blocked defrost drain backing up inside the cabinet rather than any line having burst. Clearing it is quick and it rarely comes back.
Inlet valve, a fill tube frozen through, or the module itself. Worth saying on the phone, because the module is bulky and better brought than fetched.
Three candidates: either of the fans, or the mounts the compressor sits on. Which of the three decides whether this is an hour's work or a conversation about the machine's future.
Why Keller calls us
A warm fridge is the one fault nobody can wait out, so this is what we hold to on every refrigeration call in Keller.
The diagnosis ends with a figure, and that figure is what the job costs. Nothing is added on the way out and nothing moves after you have said yes to it.
You take a day and a slot while still on the phone. If the van falls behind, the call comes from us before you have had time to wonder where it is.
Component and labor both covered for ninety days from the date of the work. The expiry goes on your paperwork so nobody has to reconstruct it later.
Came down to a fridge sitting at room temperature with a freezer still rock hard, which made no sense to me at all. Fan motor, diagnosed in minutes, part was on board, cold again by evening.

Garage fridge quit in August, which in Texas is about the worst timing there is. He explained why the heat out there kills them and fitted a new relay the same afternoon.

One town, nothing past the city line. Keller has no interstate running through it, so anybody dispatched from the far side of Tarrant County spends the morning getting here. We do not, which is the whole reason the windows hold.
Neighborhoods we cover
ZIP codes we cover
76248 is Keller proper. 76244 is the odd one: the post office sends those letters out of Keller, but the houses sit inside the Fort Worth line, so plenty of outfits turn that address down. We do not. If your mail says Keller, you are on our list.
Questions
Usually yes, when a fan, a heater, an inlet valve or a control board turns out to be the cause. A failed sealed system at that age is a different conversation, and we will have it honestly rather than quoting you for it.
Yes, and they fail more than kitchen ones. A garage here hits well over a hundred degrees in summer and most domestic refrigerators were never built to run in that.
Those come up often in the larger houses around here and they are work we take. Give the badge and the model on the phone, since the components are rarely generic.
One, almost always. Cold is generated below and blown upward into the fresh food side. Stop the fan or the defrost cycle and you get precisely this split.

The badge on the machine, plus the model number if you can get to it. It hides on a sticker around the door opening or down the side of the frame. With those two, the right components travel out with the technician rather than turning up a day late.
