What Brooklyn does
to a refrigerator.

Where refrigerators sit in Brooklyn: older housing stock, mixed housing, small kitchens.

All of New York Metro

Older housing stock

Older wiring is rarely undersized for a refrigerator's compressor start-up draw on its own, but it is more likely to share a circuit with other loads or run through a breaker or start relay nearing the end of its service life — either of which turns a normal start-up surge into a tripped breaker that looks like an appliance problem.

Mixed housing

A block that mixes decades of construction also mixes ventilation standards: a unit installed under an older code can vent adequately by the rule of its day and still run marginally by current appliance clearances, which shows up as nuisance overheating that a newer install two doors down never sees.

Small kitchens

A compact unit is more likely to be a single evaporator serving both compartments through one shared air path, so a complaint in the fresh-food side and a complaint in the freezer often trace back to the same blocked damper rather than two separate problems.
