Orlando Washer Repair: How Florida Humidity Can Impact Your Appli...

### Washer Troubles in Orlando: A Humidity-Driven Case

Last month, our Clermont technicians responded to a call from a homeowner near Lake Eola in Orlando who was experiencing washer malfunctions. The washer, a 2018 model, had started leaking and making unusual noises.

#### What We Found
The culprit was mold buildup and corrosion caused by Florida’s persistent humidity combined with infrequent use during the summer months. This environment accelerated wear on the water pump and seals.

#### Repair Process
- Diagnosed the water pump and seals within 30 minutes
- Replaced the corroded pump and worn seals
- Tested the washer multiple cycles to ensure no leaks

#### Lesson Learned
In Central Florida, especially in the Greater Orlando Area and surrounding regions like Seminole and Lake County, humidity can silently damage appliances like washers and dryers. Regular maintenance and prompt repairs can prevent bigger issues.

#### Tips for Homeowners in Orange, Marion, and Lake Counties
- Run appliances regularly to avoid mold buildup
- Schedule seasonal checkups with local Clermont technicians or Ocala service providers
- Keep laundry areas well ventilated to reduce moisture

By understanding local conditions and acting early, residents in Winter Park, Sanford, and The Villages community can extend the life of their appliances and avoid costly repairs.
