Dominant stressor · Humidity
Built-in refrigeration
Panel-ready refrigeration is sealed into cabinetry in a climate that runs a 70-degree dew point for five months. The failures follow from that.

Describe the symptom rather than the diagnosis. "The freezer is fine and the refrigerator is warm" narrows a built-in unit to one sealed circuit. "The glasses came out chalky" is a water question before it is a dishwasher question. "It stopped the morning the power came back" is an electronics question. We would rather sort that out on the phone than send a technician to the wrong appliance.
