The Prime Alliance Repairs is currently focusing on updating appliance owners with valuable information on repairs and replacements, which will help make the right decisions on maintenance. Undoubtedly, the repair guidelines for all appliances are constantly evolving. Therefore, it’s important to stay on top of all the latest changes, particularly for more than one appliance in a household.

A spokesman for the repair company noted that a huge part of the Canadian populace have more than one home appliance, which increases the probability of a breakdown, repair, or replacement. Even though many of these units are built to last several years, maintenance is inevitable. But then, not many owners are quick to address this factor. In actuality, some learn about the importance of regular maintenance from the appliances failing unexpectedly.

In the event of a breakdown, the owner is left with the choice to either repair the unit or replace it. Neither of the options is a simple affair. Factors like appliance age and warranty come into play. Another challenge is finding the right appliance repair technician who will provide the best value for money. Prime Alliance Repairs’ spokesman walks affected owners through each of the highlighted factors.

Is it a first-time fault?

In the event that the problem is occurring for the first time, it would be more prudent to repair the appliance rather than replace it. Often first-time issues don’t require replacement as the parts can still be restored to their initial condition. However, if the fault is one in the series of issues that have recently occurred, replacement is the logical choice.

Appliance Repair Cost

Not only does a replacement cost money, the quoted price tend to be higher than the repair cost. This is because of the fact that a replacement unit will be brand new. In addition, it will be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. Alternatively, if the cost of repairing the faulty component within the appliance is almost as high as the cost of replacing it, the latter would be ideal.

Operational Downtime

In some cases, it may take time to repair a broken appliance since one will need to locate the nearest technician. When there isn’t a high demand for the unit during this time, a repair would be the most ideal course of action. If the appliance serves a critical function such that downtime could affect livelihood, the owner could simply replace it.

Appliance Age

The age of the appliance is another important factor to consider. In general, appliances are designed to last for a few years. However, the longer the appliance has been in use, the more likely it is to fail. If the unit in question is in its prime, it’s likely that the owner would be better off repairing it rather than replacing it.

Warranty

If the appliance is covered by a warranty, it’s important to consider the terms of the warranty. The warranty is a legal document that is agreed upon by the manufacturer and the customer. The terms of the warranty can vary from one manufacturer to another.

In some cases, the warranty can cover repairs for the first few years, after which the owner would be required to pay for the repairs. In the event that the warranty has expired, the owner would have to pay for repairs. However, in most cases, the repair cost would be less than the cost of a replacement.

Quality, energy efficiency, and safety are also important factors. Generally, if the repair cost exceeds 50% of the replacement cost, the verdict would be to replace the appliance.
