Provincial Hospital Uitenhage going Italian

Appliance Repairs in Port Elizabeth

Recently I had the privilege of tasting the pasta from one of the talented chef cooking at Provincial Hospital in Uitenhage and believe-you-me even my Italian friends mother ( Mama Albonetti ) will approve.
Industrial Frying Pan

One of the perks repairing appliances in a industrial kitchen you sometimes get to taste the end product but only when the chef is in a good mood and only he/she will serve you.

I learned early in my kitchen-repairs-career chefs are like a artist, most of them are extremely sensitive and emotional. If you want to see emotions fly - touch a chef pot or pan without his permission.

RESPECT

Fortunately all the kitchen-artist I work with - know I appreciate their creations and masterpieces just as much as they do. (most times they let me have a sample)

Cooking 300 to 700 healthy meals in a hospital while achieving that individual result of a home cook meal, just takes a special kind of person.

Bon Appetit

    LG And Samsung makes laundry smarter

    Between LG and Samsung doing laundry has become smarter and quicker.

    The new Samsung WF457 has cut 15 minutes while LG has reduced their operating time with 20 Minutes.

    LG WM8000 has combined the rinse and spin cycle making the cycle shorter and more energy efficient.

    Samsung has introduced a system called SpeedSpray where the water and soap gets sprayed directly onto the laundry resulting in the chemicals working faster

    The LG WM8000 is ideally for the larger family because it now has the largest drum capacity of all front loading washing machines.

    Samsung washer has the VRT Vibration Reduction Technology which makes it ideally small homes or where noise can become a problem

    Both the new LG WM8000 and Samsung WF457 are Wi-Fi enable which means the machines can be controlled from any smart phone.

    Now if I can only figure out how to operate the i-phone laundry should be a breeze.

    Dishwasher Knowledge

    Dishwasher Knowledge - Appliance Repairs in Port Elizabeth


    Did you know the average older type Dishwasher uses about 14 litre water per wash cycle(13 place setting)?

    New Dishwasher models now use 7 litre water per wash cycle, manufactures made innovating improvements in the following area`s;

    1. Water storage; 3 litre of the finale rise water gets re-cycled and stored - to be used in the next wash cycle. “It such simple feature, I wonder why nobody ever thought about it before”.
    2. Hydro-sensor; this is a sensor that checks the degree of soiling in the stored water before it gets used in the next pre-rinse or main wash.

    It seems the guys that are taking the lead in Dishwashing-technology advancement are Zanussi, John Lewis and Bosch. Unfortunatly most of these feature are not yet available in South African dishwashers,

    Hopefully soon.

Unfortunately life happens to all of us and we get into sh..situations which we have no control over - on the upside you get to meet us and we look forward to meeting you.

    If you are lucky and you live in Port Elizabeth or even if you are not so lucky we will still look at your ghd. When your Ghd hairstyler starts going on the blink do not panic, most of the time it is just something small like;

    • The ghd powercable is the most common item that causes problems check for the following signs
    o Power light starts flashing when you move the cable.
    o The power light does not come on at all.

    Be on the lookout for black marking or open wire and also check for kinks/ melts and cuts. When you cannot see the obvious mistakes it could also

    >Never-ever wrap the electric cord around the ghd when storing is shortens the lifespan of the wire.

    • ghd cable socket will show the same symptoms as a ghd power cable, when faulty

    Other ghd faulty Signs Symptoms

    Ghd Thermal fuse – don’t ever bypass it because it can cause the ghd to catch fire
    Ghd Thermistor - Regulates the ghd temperature. Signs to look for;
    o The ghd heater-plates are not heating when the thermistor that has gone on the blink.
    o ghd will also have a continues beep.

    • Continues Beep could also be a signs of a “bad” solder “joint” on one of the ghd electronic boards.
    • When ghd Heater are not heating it could also be that a wire has detached it self and needs to be re-soldered
    o It is also common for the ghd heater element to cracked, (dropped by accident)
    o The ghd heater elements sometimes become brittle once it becomes old.

    • Word of caution! Never keep on using the ghd if only one heater element is getting hot because then you will cause more(double) damage to your ghd
    While we repair all ghd’s - we do recommend you have your unit done by the official agents - just for the sake of your ghd guarantee.
