Why Pay Full Price? Get Reliable Used Appliances for Less

Posted on by

Let’s be honest: buying a brand-new appliance from a big retail store is expensive. Prices are high, and many new machines are mostly made of plastic parts that don’t last like they used to.

If you need a washer, dryer, or refrigerator but don’t want to spend your whole paycheck, buying used from a local shop is the best option. Here is what we offer at our store:

  • Real Savings: You get good, working appliances from top brands for a fraction of the retail price.

  • Thoroughly Tested: We don’t just sell these machines as they come. Our technicians open them up, test the mechanical and electrical parts, and clean them completely. If it’s on our floor, it works.

  • Simple and Honest: We are a local Tampa business. We don’t use high-pressure sales tricks. We just show you what we have, explain how it works, and help you find something that fits your budget.

If you want a solid machine without the high price tag, come look at our inventory today.

ESSENTIAL CARE FOR YOUR CLOTHES DRYER

Posted on by

A high-quality dryer is a true time-saver in any home, but to keep it running at peak performance, it needs more than just a quick lint-trap cleaning. At ABC Appliances & Services, we believe that a little preventative maintenance goes a long way in protecting your investment and keeping your home safe. One of the most common reasons for a dryer breakdown is restricted airflow, which forces the heating element to stay on longer and causes the motor to work overtime. To prevent this, make sure to check your outside vent hood while the dryer is running to ensure air is blowing out freely and that the flapper isn’t stuck. If your clothes are taking more than one cycle to dry, it’s a clear sign that your exhaust system needs a thorough cleaning to remove trapped debris.

Inside the machine, you should also be mindful of the drum and its components. To maintain a quiet and smooth operation, try to avoid drying heavy items like sneakers or large rugs too frequently, as these can wear out the drum rollers and belts prematurely. It is also a good idea to periodically wash your lint screen with warm soapy water and a soft brush; over time, fabric softener and dryer sheets can create an invisible film that blocks air, even if the screen looks clean. By keeping the air flowing and the drum balanced, you’ll ensure your dryer lasts for years to come. Whether you’re looking to replace an old unit or searching for a great deal on a refurbished model, stop by and see us at 8704 N Nebraska Ave, Tampa, Florida 33604 or give us a call at 813-900-7823.

MAINTENANCE TIPS FOR YOUR DRYER

Posted on by

A dependable dryer is essential for keeping your laundry routine running smoothly, but because it deals with high heat and heavy lint, it requires regular attention to stay safe and efficient. At ABC Appliances & Services, we want your used appliances to perform good, so we’ve put together a few expert tips to help you care for your dryer.

The most important rule for safety and efficiency is managing lint build-up; while cleaning the screen after every load is a must, you should also detach the vent hose once a year to vacuum out the ductwork. This prevents the motor from overheating and significantly reduces the risk of dryer fires. To keep the machine running smoothly, avoid overstuffing the drum so that hot air can circulate freely around your clothes.

Additionally, if you use dryer sheets, wipe the internal moisture sensors with a little rubbing alcohol once a month to remove waxy residue that can interfere with drying cycles. By following these simple steps, you’ll keep your energy bills low and your clothes in great shape. If you’re ready to upgrade your laundry room or need a quality used dryer, come visit us at 8704 N Nebraska Ave, Tampa, Florida 33604 or call us at 813-900-7823. We have a huge selection of reliable dryers and great deals on all used appliances!

Maintenance Tips for Your Refrigerator

Posted on by

A reliable refrigerator is the heart of your kitchen, but because it runs 24/7, it needs a little routine care to stay efficient and keep your food fresh. At ABC Appliances & Services, we want your used appliances to last, so we’ve gathered a few tips to help you maintain your fridge like a pro.

The most important rule for efficiency is to keep the coils clean. Over time, dust and pet hair can build up on the condenser coils (usually located at the bottom or back), forcing the motor to work twice as hard. A quick vacuum or brush-off every six months can significantly extend the life of your compressor. Also, pay attention to the door seals. A dirty or cracked gasket lets cold air escape, which wastes energy. A simple “dollar bill test” closing the door on a dollar and seeing if it stays snug will tell you if your seals are still airtight.

When it comes to the interior, airflow is key. It’s tempting to stock up, but overstuffing your fridge can block the vents and cause uneven cooling. Try to keep it about three-quarters full so the cold air can circulate freely. For cleaning, always wipe up spills immediately to prevent odors from soaking into the plastic. A mixture of baking soda and warm water is the best way to scrub the inside without using harsh chemicals that could affect your food.

By following these simple steps, you’ll keep your energy bills low and your food fresh.
