Dmitry visited today and helped fixing GE oven. He was quick to diagnose issue and fixed it at reasonable price.
I haven't met a man as professional and honest as Alex in a long time. He really does the best in the interest of the customer.
Igor from Boost Appliance Service repaired my subzero refrigerator. He needed to order parts but in general the repair turned over was fast and my fridge is working perfectly right now. The best service in Morristown. Highly recommend!
I was very impressed with their great availability. They scheduled me in quickly and Ramiz was very knowledgeable and detail oriented. The error code we had was not appearing but he still spent 45 minutes making sure everything was checked. I appreciated his attention to detail and not just leaving when the error code wasn't there. We will definitely be returning customers!
A+++ Service. Boost Appliance Service is great. I called on Monday and Mr. Igor came the next day to repair the defrost sensor and drain line of my fridge, he also did thorough maintenance checks on my laundry dryer and laundry washer machine. 3 appliances all in one day. Highly recommended. Answered all my questions and showed me how to maintain my appliances. Thank you.
Eddie did an EXCELLENT job diagnosing, repairing and cleaning my washer and dryer. Completely disassembled it, made it run smoother than ever and made the inside shine like new.
Park Avenue and the side streets off Donaldson Avenue are packed with colonials and split-levels where laundry rooms run hard all week. That Samsung front-load unit stacked in a tight utility closet? It takes a beating. A blown thermal fuse or a seized drum roller can shut the whole thing down mid-cycle, and in a household doing five-plus loads a week, that's not a small problem.
Most of Rutherford's housing stock sits in the 07070 zip code, built predominantly between the 1920s and 1960s. Older homes near Union Avenue and the Erie Street corridor often have cramped laundry setups — basement utility rooms with limited ventilation and exhaust runs that are longer than they should be. That restricted airflow accelerates lint buildup inside the blower wheel and exhaust vent, which quietly kills dryer efficiency long before anything actually breaks.
Common Dryer Issues in Rutherford
Clogged Exhaust Vents in Older Rutherford Basements
Basement laundry rooms with long duct runs — common in the pre-war homes near Lincoln Place — trap lint deep inside the exhaust vent and blower wheel housing. The dryer runs full cycles but clothes come out damp. LG units especially will trigger a d80 or d90 airflow error code when restriction gets bad enough. Clearing the full duct run, not just the exterior cap, is the actual fix.
Thermal Fuse Failures From Restricted Airflow
A thermal fuse is a one-shot safety device — once it blows, the dryer produces zero heat. This happens constantly in homes where the vent line hasn't been cleaned in years. Samsung electric dryers in Rutherford's split-levels are repeat offenders here. Replacing the fuse without also clearing the restriction just means it blows again in a few months.
Worn Drum Rollers Causing Loud Tumbling Noise
That grinding or thumping sound mid-cycle is almost always drum rollers or a worn belt tensioner. Bosch and KitchenAid condensing dryers — increasingly common in Rutherford's updated kitchens and laundry closets — run quieter than vented units, so worn rollers stand out immediately. Left alone, the drum starts dragging and the drive belt goes next.
