T48BT120NS

Thermador T48BT120NS

What we most often repair on units like this

  1. Freezer drawer frost at the seal
  2. SuperCool not reaching the setpoint
  3. Water filter drain slow
  4. Ice maker making less than the listed amount
  5. Alarm sounding when the doors are shut

Replaced on the Thermador site by the T48BT122NS, the T48BT120NS remains a current listing and is the one many 48-inch kitchens already have. With a 6-lb ice bin, four glass shelves and a 47 1/4 inch cabinet, this is a workhorse for families who store bulk.

Our diagnosis begins with a temperature walk-through: top shelf, bottom shelf, the freezer drawer. A reading that is warm on the top shelf only points to a fan or damper. A uniformly warm reading points to the sealed system or a heavy load. We note the modes (EcoMode in particular) and then test.

If the complaint is ice, we run the listed benchmark: 4.5 lbs per day with a 6-lb bin. Output well below that sends us to the filter and the inlet valve first. Parts are matched by the model number on the label.

T48BT120NST48BT120NS questions
Do you work on the older 120 model now that the 122 exists?

Yes. We match parts by exact model number and confirm they are available before quoting the repair. We match parts by number first, so the repair does not depend on the newer model.

Does EcoMode make the cabinet warmer?

It is designed to save energy and can allow slightly warmer operation. If readings look high, we check whether the mode is active. Hold the button for the stated time.

Why is my freezer drawer frosting at the edge?

A worn or dirty seal admits moist air. We clean and test the seal, then adjust the drawer. We clean the gasket, test the seal and realign the drawer.
