Viking DDBB536 Designer Bottom-Freezer
The DDBB536 is a retired 36-inch Designer Series bottom-mount refrigerator/freezer. Its drawer-style freezer keeps frozen foods tidy and makes bulky items easier to reach, while the large refrigerator compartment above puts fresh food at a comfortable level. Like most bottom-mount units, it is judged by where frost forms and how the drawer closes.
The drawer is the part that works the hardest. Slides loosen, the front shifts, and a drawer that no longer closes flush lets warm air in and builds frost around the opening. The refrigerator door gaskets on a unit of this age are the second area, followed by the condenser fan.
We check drawer travel and the seal, then measure both compartments. A written price is given before any work starts, and our workmanship comes with a 30-day warranty.
A worn slide, a drawer front that has shifted or an overloaded basket is usual. We inspect the track, adjust or replace the slide and check that the gasket seats.
Warm air entering past a gap in the gasket freezes at the opening. Fixing the closure and the gasket stops it, and we clear the frost safely.
It has more moving parts, so the slides deserve attention. Keeping loads within the basket rim helps them last. A wipe of the track with a dry cloth every few months also prevents ice from forming there.
Book in about a minute, or call the desk. Same-day windows inside the Loop on most days, next-day across the rest of Houston.
