# Bertazzoni freezer column repair cost

### Why a column is not a freezer compartment

A column is a whole appliance doing one job, usually paired with a refrigerator column beside it and hung with the same cabinet panels. That means there is **no second compartment carrying on** while it is diagnosed, which is why the frost pattern matters so much: it is the evidence that lets a technician arrive with the right part rather than come back.

### The one code family that helps

Machines that carry a display publish sensor codes — **E2** for the freezer chamber sensor and **E5** for the frost sensor. They point at the sensing half rather than the cooling half, and that alone stops a compressor being discussed over the phone.

### What is included

Diagnosis including the defrost cycle and the door seal, the part, the labor, the panel refitted and aligned, and a pull-down watched to temperature before the appointment ends. **Exact cost is confirmed after an on-site diagnostic.**

What moves this figure

The 5 freezer columns in this catalog

Fan, defrost heater, sensor, seal or control

What is inside it decides how fast we come, not what it costs

Fan, heater or sensor

The same three ordinary parts as a refrigerator, in a cabinet that is colder and works harder. Told apart by measurement.

Frost pattern

Where the frost is tells us a great deal before anything is opened — even frost on everything is a door or a seal, heavy frost on one wall is defrost, and no frost with nothing freezing is the sealed system.

A column behind a cabinet panel comes out and goes back aligned, and the panel is heavy. Planned time.

What is in it

This does not change the figure and it does change the appointment. Tell us if the cabinet is full — we would rather come sooner than arrive to a loss.

### Everything in the freezer has frost on it. What does that mean?

Warm moist air is getting in, which points at the door seal or the alignment rather than at the cooling. It is one of the cheaper endings this page has.

### Should I empty it before you come?

Move what you cannot afford to lose, and leave the rest. A full cabinet holds its temperature far longer than an empty one, so it is not urgent — but if the machine has been off for many hours, deal with the food first.

### Is a column more expensive to repair than a normal freezer?

The parts are the same. The appointment is longer because it comes out of an opening and goes back aligned behind a heavy panel, and that is what the difference in the figure is.
