The part readings, priced apart by frame
| Failed part | Frame A reading | Frame B reading |
|---|---|---|
| Compressor | $430-$450 replacement, labor included | $100-$600 part row |
| Control board | in service rows | $60-$250 part row |
| Condenser motor and fan | in service rows | $30-$250 motor part |
| Thermostat | in service rows | $5-$30 part row |
Each reading is one frame counting of one failed part in one visit, never blended into a visit total.
The small-part rows, priced apart
| Part row | Frame A reading | Frame B reading |
|---|---|---|
| Cooling fan unit | in service rows | $10-$25 |
| Start relay | in service rows | $7-$16 |
| Overload protector | in service rows | $5-$10 |
| Temperature switching board | in service rows | $30-$50 |
| Door gasket | in service rows | in total-band rows |
Frame B prints its small-part rows by part; Frame A counts the same parts inside its service line. The door gasket stands with no standalone part row in either frame, read inside the visit lines only.
The visit lines behind the parts, priced apart
| Visit line, as published | Frame | 2026 reading |
|---|---|---|
| Diagnosis | Frame A | $60-$100 |
| Professional service, plus parts | Frame A | $350 plus parts |
| Total repair band, parts shipping excluded | Frame B | $50-$500 |
| Technician labor, hourly minimum | Frame B | $100 per hour |
| Premium built-in sealed-system repair | Frame A | $1,900-$2,500 |
The visit lines count the ticket behind the part rows: a part row prices the part, a visit line prices the visit, and no page adds part rows into one total. The frames count the same compressor job differently -- a provider inclusive ticket at $430-$450 in Frame A against a parts record part row at $100-$600 plus technician labor at a $100-per-hour minimum in Frame B. That difference is named as a frame difference on every page here, never averaged.
The totals behind the rows, and the neighbours named apart
| Row or total, as published | Frame | 2026 band |
|---|---|---|
| Condenser motor part | Frame B | $30-$250 |
| Thermal plate part | Frame B | $30-$50 |
| Diagnosis | Frame A | $60-$100 |
Named apart, never a row here: the full-size refrigerator repair ticket, a full-size appliance field; the wine-fridge resale read, a resale field and never a repair price; cellar cooling-unit installation and equipment rows, a room-scale install field; and beverage-cooler purchase rows, a purchase and never a repair visit.

Frequently asked questions
What does wine cooler repair cost by failed part, as reported?
Frame B prints the part rows: compressor at $100 to $600, board at $60 to $250, motor at $30 to $250, thermostat at $5 to $30. Frame A prints the visit: diagnosis at $60 to $100, compressor replacement at $430 to $450 with labor included.
What do the small parts print at, as reported?
Frame B prints cooling fan unit at $10 to $25, start relay at $7 to $16, and overload protector at $5 to $10 as its smallest rows. Frame A counts small parts inside its service line at $350 plus parts.
What does the door gasket print at, as reported?
Neither frame prints a standalone gasket part row. Frame A reads the gasket inside its service line at $350 plus parts, and Frame B reads it inside its total repair band at $50 to $500, so the gasket is never priced apart from the visit lines here.
What does the visit behind the parts print at, as reported?
Frame A prints diagnosis at $60 to $100 and a premium sealed-system line at $1,900 to $2,500 as its ceiling. Frame B prints labor at a $100-per-hour minimum beside its part rows and total band.
Can the part rows be added into one visit total?
No. Rows stand as printed -- part rows at $100 to $600 in Frame B, a $430 to $450 inclusive ticket in Frame A, the total band apart at $50 to $500 in Frame B. The refrigerator ticket, the resale read, cellar rows, and purchase rows sit in their own lanes, named apart.
