About the brand
About Thermador Refrigerators
Thermador began in Los Angeles in 1916, which makes it a California-born brand. Today it is part of BSH Home Appliances, the same group that owns Bosch. Thermador is BSH’s luxury line, aimed at custom kitchens.
Thermador is best known for the Freedom Collection. These are separate refrigerator, freezer and wine columns that can be installed side by side or apart, often fully covered with custom panels. Thermador also offers built-in French door bottom freezer models.
Because each column has its own cooling system and controls, one column can fail while the others keep working. We test each one on its own. Built-in units also need care with panels and cabinetry, which we cover on our built-in refrigerator repair page.
The Thermador repairs we see most involve the ice maker, fans, electronic controls and door hinges carrying heavy custom panels.
We are an independent refrigerator repair company. We are not affiliated with, or an authorized service center for, Thermador. Brand names are used only to describe the appliances we repair.
