# LG sealed system repair cost

### Why this figure is a from

The largest figure on this site and the only refrigeration repair that needs gauges, recovery, brazing, a drier, a vacuum and a weighed charge. It is quoted after it is measured, never from a symptom — and on this make the compressor warranty is established first, because it changes the number considerably.

### What puts your job at the bottom or the top of it

At the bottom: one appliance, a code or a light pattern already written down, easy access, and a cause that turns out to be a setting, a filter or something cleared rather than replaced. At the top: a machine built into joinery, a part that has to be ordered rather than picked up, and a second problem found alongside the first. We say which of those you are in before the work starts, not after.

What moves this figure

from $595, and what changes it

Confirmed on site, agreed in writing

Nothing is opened or ordered before you have said yes

Whether the compressor is covered

LG's linear compressor warranty follows the machine rather than the owner. A cabinet bought used can still be covered.

What has actually failed

A leak, a restriction and a failed compressor are three different jobs sharing one procedure.

Access to the machine room

A built-in or counter-depth cabinet in a fitted opening is time before the first gauge goes on.

### Why is it a from and not a price?

Because the same job is not the same work on two machines. The part, the access and what the appliance turns out to have done to itself all move it, and quoting a number before measuring is guessing with extra confidence. The figure is confirmed on site and agreed in writing before anything is opened — BRAND-RULES is explicit about it and so are we.

### Is the diagnostic charged on top?

It pays for the diagnosis, which is real work. If you go ahead with the repair it comes off the bill, so you pay it once either way.
