Tell the scheduler if the problem is new, intermittent, or tied to a recent move, installation change, or heavy use. When the symptom involves heat, water, gas, electricity, or microwave operation, describe what you noticed without opening internal parts.

This gives Appliance Response a clearer picture of whether the issue is urgent, routine, or tied to a safety concern.
