Questions

Questions we get asked first

Everything below is answered the way we answer it on the phone. If your question is not here, ask it — Sub-Zero refrigeration in Clay County is a narrow enough subject that we probably have an answer.

The questions below are the ones asked on the phone, answered the way they are answered on the phone.

Booking a visit

When can you come out?
We work Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and Saturday, 9am to 4pm. We are closed Sunday. Calls placed after hours are returned the next working morning. We do not advertise an emergency or twenty-four-hour service, because we would not be able to staff it honestly.

Money

What does the first visit cost?
A flat $129 diagnostic fee covers the visit and the diagnosis. If you go ahead with the repair, that $129 is credited toward it. You get a written estimate before any part is ordered, and nothing is ordered until you approve the figure.
What is covered after the repair?
Ninety days on labour and three hundred and sixty-five days on parts. We fit genuine OEM parts only, so the part warranty is the manufacturer's own coverage rather than an aftermarket substitute.

The repair itself

The display shows the right temperature but the food is warm. What is that?
The panel is reporting what one sensor believes, not what the cabinet is achieving, so the first thing we do is measure both compartments with our own probe. A gap between the two usually means a sensor reading wrong, airflow that is not reaching the shelf, or a compartment that recovers overnight and drifts by the afternoon. On a built-in with two independent sealed systems, one side can be struggling while the other reads perfectly normal.
Do you carry parts, or is it always a second visit?
Common wear items are stocked on the van: seals, sensors, fans and drain components. Controls and sealed-system parts are ordered against the serial number on the plate inside your cabinet, because components are revised within a model designation and two units that look identical can take different parts. If your repair needs an ordered part, we tell you that at the first visit along with the written figure, rather than afterwards.

Scope and standing

Has the manufacturer appointed you?
No. Doctors Lake Refrigeration is an independent appliance repair company. We are not affiliated with, authorized by, or endorsed by Sub-Zero or its parent company. We specialise in their built-in refrigeration and we fit genuine OEM parts, but no manufacturer has appointed us.
Do you work on other appliance brands?
No. Sub-Zero built-in and integrated refrigeration is all we do. Keeping the scope that narrow is why we carry the right parts and why the diagnosis is usually finished inside one visit.
How far do you travel?
About forty miles around Orange Park. That covers all of Clay County including Fleming Island, Eagle Harbor, Pace Island, Hibernia Plantation and Oakleaf Plantation, and reaches into southern Duval and northern St. Johns.

Longer answers to the arguable ones live in the field notes. The full cost breakdown is on the pricing page, and the exclusions are on the warranty page. To book, use the booking page.
