Perlick Appliance Repair in Camden, Pennsauken & Collingswood, NJ

Perlick parts come through Perlick's own distribution network, so supply and lead times depend on it, and we check both at the diagnosis.

That is why we ask for the model number when you book. It sits on a rating label inside the door frame, behind the kick plate or on the back panel, and it lets the technician prepare for the parts that usually fail on that Perlick platform before setting out.

Perlick builds commercial-grade equipment engineered for continuous duty. In Camden, Pennsauken & Collingswood it turns up in home bars, basement entertaining spaces and serious home kitchens as well as in businesses, and in every case it is serviced to commercial procedures rather than household ones.

If your Perlick unit is in a business rather than a home, say so when you request service so we can confirm whether it falls within the work we take on before anyone is scheduled.

In Camden, Pennsauken & Collingswood's row homes, drain lines, gas pipe and wiring often date from long before the current kitchen. When a newer dishwasher drains slowly or a range behaves oddly, we check the connections before blaming the appliance.

Camden's older homes and apartments include a high share of rentals, so tenants often report the problem while an owner or manager approves the repair. In Pennsauken and Merchantville, postwar capes and ranches with basement or first-floor laundry make up most of the housing.

None of this is specific to Perlick, but all of it affects Perlick repairs. In Camden, Pennsauken & Collingswood, the area stretches from Camden's older brick row homes through Pennsauken's postwar houses to the porch homes and twins of Collingswood, Oaklyn, Audubon and Westmont, so one day's list can include basement laundry in a century-old home and a ranch with a utility room, so we look at what the appliance is connected to as carefully as at the appliance itself.

Gas ranges and gas dryers are common on both sides of the Delaware, and gas work deserves care. Before we disconnect a gas appliance the supply is shut off, and every connection we touch is leak-checked before the appliance goes back into service. If we smell gas or find a problem on the supply side, we stop and tell you.

Problems in the gas piping itself belong to your gas utility (PSE&G or South Jersey Gas, depending on the town) or a licensed plumber, not an appliance technician. If you ever smell gas in the Delaware Valley or anywhere else, leave the house first and call the gas utility or 911 from outside.

Stacked washer-dryer pairs in closets are compact and convenient, but they leave little room for hoses, vents and air. Hoses kink when the stack is pushed back, the dryer's transition duct crushes, and heat builds up behind a solid closet door.

If a stacked unit in the Delaware Valley runs hot or dries slowly, check the closet door first: many manufacturers call for louvered doors or minimum openings when a dryer is installed in a closet. It is often the cheapest fix there is.

When you are ready, send a Perlick repair request online. A photo of the rating label and a note about access, such as stairs, parking or building rules, help the visit go smoothly.
