The word “refrigerator” originates from the Latin “refrigerare,” meaning “to cool again.” The prefix “re-” signifies “again,” while “frigerare” pertains to cooling. Interestingly, “frigerator” alone wouldn’t convey the same “cool again” meaning. Just like the history of the word, refrigerator repair ensures your appliance can “cool again” by restoring its functionality and keeping your food fresh.
