A fridge freezer in Bromsgrove is an essential appliance for any homeowner. Not only does this appliance keep food cool but also, it is relied on for keeping ingredients organised. If you want your refrigerator to last for years without problems, it is essential that you maintain it. You can do this by inspecting the door seals for leaks, cleaning the coils and setting the right temperature. The appliance may use more energy than necessary if it is not maintained in the right way. Get problems dealt with in a timely manner by focusing on the following signs of a fault.
Fridge Freezer Won’t Cool
The main purpose of a fridge freezer in Bromsgrove is to cool food so that it is safe to consume and does not expire before the ‘best before’ date, therefore if it will not cool, repairs or replacements will be vital. Most people discover this problem when the interior light fails to turn on. Hopefully, the problem can be fixed with a swift bulb replacement. However, there’s a chance that the thermostat might need adjusting or replacing. Contact a qualified repairer to determine whether cooling problems are occurring as a result of dirt around the light bulb, a faulty thermostat or faulty compressor.
Light Illuminates But Appliance Won’t Work
You could save money buying a basic light bulb to fit inside your refrigerator, but chances are this light bulb won’t do it’s job quite as well as a manufacturer-recommended light bulb. Refer to the manufacturer instructions to find the correct wattage and type. By doing so, the risk of it blowing will reduce. In the event that the appliance is not working but the light turns on, set the thermostat to ‘defrost’ and contact a qualified repairer to replace the fridge compressor.
Compressor Motor Runs Continuously
A fridge freezer in Bromsgrove won’t be able to function as well if the refrigerant cooling levels are low. A qualified repairer will be able to tell you exactly how much refrigerant is required for the appliance to work to its full potential. Changing the thermostat settings could also prevent the compressor motor from running constantly, and this could ultimately save you a lot of money on your energy bills.
