Questions To Ask Before Your Oven Repair

Docs Appliance • June 5, 2019

If your oven is acting up, you’re probably wondering whether you should have it repaired or replaced. It might help do some research into it before you decide on a particular solution. It is an excellent idea to do some troubleshooting and go through a checklist before you undergo repair of any major appliance in your home. The oven can be quite expensive, and therefore it behooves you take some time to come to a decision.

What Does Oven Repair Cost?

With any appliance, you should consider replacing it if the cost of repair is more than half the cost of buying a new one. Another factor is the cost and availability of the needed replacement part. You may be a do-it-yourselfer, and if the part is reasonably priced, you could try to do the repair yourself. On the other hand, depending on what’s wrong with your oven, you may want to skip the repair and just buy a new one.

How Old is Your Oven?

Another critical question to ask yourself is how old your oven is. If the appliance is halfway through its life expectancy and requires significant repair work, you might as well look at buying a newer model. On the other hand, it makes more sense to check out oven repair if the appliance is still under warranty. For all you know, the warranty will cover the repair cost – or part of it, anyway.

Is Your Oven Energy-Efficient?

Energy costs are another critical factor when making decisions about your home appliances. Ask yourself how much energy your current oven is consuming. This can be a major factor in your decision between oven repair or a new purchase. Newer models are more energy-efficient for sure. If you bake and use your oven a lot, then you should certainly have an energy-efficient model installed in your home.
