Lessons from a Washer Breakdown in Ocala's Humid Climate

# Washer Breakdown in Ocala: What We Learned About Florida Humidity

Living in the Ocala service area means contending with high Florida humidity, which can sneakily affect household appliances like washers and dryers.

## What Happened?

Our client noticed their Whirlpool washer (model year 2018) was leaking and not spinning properly. They live near the Ocala National Forest, where seasonal humidity spikes can cause electrical components to corrode faster.

## The Repair Journey

- The SunFixes Clermont technicians arrived within an hour after the call.
- They identified a corroded motor relay that was causing the malfunction.
- The part wasn't in stock locally, so they ordered it and returned two days later for the fix.
- The team explained the issue clearly and advised on preventive steps.

## Lesson Learned

Humidity in Central Florida can accelerate appliance wear, especially for washers and dryers. Regular maintenance and prompt repairs can extend appliance life and avoid bigger headaches.

## Key Takeaway

If you're in the Greater Orlando Area, especially in humid zones like Ocala or The Villages, keep an eye on your appliances for signs of moisture damage and call professionals promptly.
