What We Fix on Whirlpool
By appliance. These are the faults Aaron names when asked what he sees on Whirlpool, not a list of everything that could theoretically go wrong.
What Whirlpool Machines Are Like to Work On
Parts sit on a shelf at the supplier in Birmingham
Parts sit on a shelf at the supplier in Birmingham, and that single fact decides more about whether a repair finishes today than anything else on this page.
Three years old to twenty and beyond
The Whirlpool machines Aaron sees run anywhere from three years old to twenty and beyond, which is a wide band and a good sign in itself.
Is It Worth Keeping?
Whirlpool is the easiest yes in this market, and the reason is unglamorous: parts. A machine you can get parts for locally, from a technician who works on them constantly, stays repairable for a long time.
The band of ages Aaron sees, three years to twenty and beyond, tells you the same story from the other end. Machines that were not worth repairing would not still be turning up at twenty.
Where the answer turns is a control board on an older machine. That is the one Whirlpool repair that regularly points at replacing instead.

What It Costs
$100 service call, applied to the repair, held for thirty days, then a further $50 to $100.
No published repair prices. On Whirlpool the parts are cheap to source and quick to get, which keeps the total at the friendlier end of what this trade charges.

How the Visit Goes
The Whirlpools We Get Called To Run Three to Twenty-Plus Years Old
That is as wide a band as any brand on this site, and it is worth reading as a compliment rather than a statistic. A badge that is still worth a service call at twenty years old is a badge that was built to be repaired.
It also changes what the visit is about. On a three-year-old machine the question is almost always which part failed. On a twenty-year-old one there is a second question behind it, and Aaron will raise it himself: whether the repair is worth making at all.
His rule is the same on every brand. Once a repair passes about half the cost of replacing the machine, replacing it is usually the better call. On Whirlpool that line gets crossed less often than you would expect, because the parts are easy to get and priced accordingly.
Where the Model Number Is on a Whirlpool, Machine by Machine
It is the first thing Aaron asks for and the thing most people cannot find. Whirlpool publishes the locations itself, and on their machines they are consistent.

Questions We Get Asked
Is Whirlpool a good brand to own?
In terms of getting it fixed, yes, and that is a real consideration. Parts are easy to get locally and Aaron works on them constantly. Whirlpool also builds five other brands you may recognize, so the same is true of those.
Do you work on all Whirlpool appliances?
Washers, dryers, dishwashers, ranges and refrigerators.
Do you charge to come out?
$100, and it comes off the repair. Nothing is published past that because the range would be meaningless.
What if the part isn't on the shelf?
On Whirlpool it usually is. When it isn't, one to two days and he's back.
What does the warranty cover?
Ninety days on parts and labor for the repair we did. Boards are the exception; the full list is on the FAQs.
Every service this brand comes up on
Each of these has its own page with the faults, the parts reality and the model-plate location for that badge.
