Why a new compressor

Keep the refrigerator you already own.

A dead compressor does not have to mean a dead refrigerator. The cabinet, doors and ice maker usually keep working. If a new compressor is not worth it, we say so.

01

The cabinet still works

Doors, gaskets, shelves and the ice maker usually survive a compressor failure. A new compressor puts them all back to work.

02

It already fits your kitchen

No shopping, no new hookup, no haul-away. On a built-in, no cabinetry rework. Your refrigerator stays right where it fits.

03

Built-ins are made to last

Sub-Zero, Viking, Thermador, Miele and True Residential cabinets are made for a long service life. A new compressor keeps yours working.

04

Warranty can tilt the math

Many LG and Samsung models carry longer coverage on the compressor part, often part only. We help you check your model before ordering.

How the job is done

Done right, so it lasts.

The compressor is part of the sealed system, so this is refrigeration work, not a parts swap. We order the compressor to match your model and schedule the replacement once it arrives.

01

Remove the old charge safely

HFC refrigerant is recovered, never vented, per EPA Section 608. Isobutane is released outdoors away from ignition sources, then nitrogen purges the system. Tubing is cut, never torched.

02

Braze with a new filter-drier

The compressor matches your model and refrigerant. A new filter-drier always goes in. Brazing under flowing nitrogen prevents oxide scale that can plug the capillary tube.

03

Pressure test, deep vacuum

Every joint is leak-tested under dry nitrogen. Then both high and low sides are pulled to a deep vacuum that holds on a micron gauge, removing air and moisture.

04

Weighed charge, then verification

The charge is weighed in per the data plate, not set by gauge. Isobutane process tubes are sealed mechanically, never torched. We verify line temperatures, frost pattern and amp draw.

LG · Samsung · Sub-Zero

Compressor replacement by brand.

01
LG linear compressorsMany LG models use a linear compressor driven by a control board, with no start relay. We test both and help check coverage.
02
Samsung inverter compressorsMany Samsung models use a variable-speed inverter compressor. A failed board can leave a healthy compressor silent, so we test both.
03
Sub-Zero and dual-system built-insMany Sub-Zero models run separate sealed systems, each with its own compressor, so one side can fail alone. We open only that side.

Before you pay for a part

Check the compressor warranty first.

Check manufacturer coverage before paying for a compressor. Many LG and Samsung models cover the compressor part longer than the basic warranty, usually without labor or refrigerant. Terms vary by model and purchase date. Have your model and serial number ready; we help you check. If the manufacturer must handle a claim, we tell you.

FAQ · Compressor replacement

Straight answers before you book.

Compressor replacement starts at $650. Your written quote shows the complete price before any work starts, and the service call is free when we do the repair. The price depends on the compressor your model takes, its refrigerant and whether the unit is built in. Compare that with a new refrigerator plus delivery, installation, haul-away and any cabinetry rework.
The diagnosis can be today anywhere in Broward and Miami-Dade when you call before 2 PM, 7 days a week. The replacement is not same-day: the compressor is ordered to match your model and refrigerant, and we schedule the job when it arrives. Knowing what failed today lets you check coverage before you pay for a part.
When the cabinet is sound, it usually is. The cabinet, doors, gaskets and ice maker rarely fail with the compressor. On a built-in, a new compressor usually costs less than a new unit plus cabinetry rework. On an older freestanding unit with a worn cabinet or other failing parts, a new refrigerator can be the smarter buy. Testing tells you which.
Many compressor kits are start kits: a relay, an overload and sometimes a capacitor. They help only when the start device is the fault, and do not fit inverter or linear compressors. A real replacement opens the sealed system: EPA Section 608 certification to recover HFC refrigerant, care with flammable isobutane, nitrogen brazing, a deep vacuum and a weighed charge. Testing tells you if a start kit is the fix.
It may be. Many LG and Samsung refrigerators carry coverage in stages: the basic warranty, a sealed-system period that on some models includes labor, then a longer period on the compressor part only. Terms vary by model and purchase date. Call with your model and serial number and we help you check before anyone orders a compressor.
Other faults look the same: a start relay or overload, a stopped condenser fan or dirty coil, a defrost failure, a leak or restriction, or an inverter board. We replace a compressor only on measured evidence: an open, shorted or grounded winding, a locked rotor, or one that runs but will not pump, with charge and airflow ruled out. If a smaller part failed, that is what we quote.
Yes. We service Sub-Zero, Viking, Thermador, Miele and True Residential built-ins. Many Sub-Zero models run separate sealed systems, so one side can fail while the other stays cold; many other built-ins use one compressor for both sections. We open only the system that failed, and help you check sealed-system coverage first.
Every repair we do carries our parts and labor warranty, compressor replacements included. We go over the terms before you approve the work, so you know what is covered up front. If a manufacturer warranty may still cover the compressor part, we help you check that first.
Keep the doors closed; a full, closed freezer holds its temperature longer than the fresh food side. Move perishables to coolers with ice and keep a thermometer in each. On a dual-system built-in, the working side may still hold food. When in doubt, follow USDA food safety guidance and throw it out.

Keep the fridge. Replace the compressor.
