Fridge and Freezer
Repairs in Durban
Refrigerator and freezer repairs involve troubleshooting and fixing issues with these essential kitchen appliances. Here’s a general overview of the common problems and repair processes:
Temperature Issues:
Symptoms: Food spoiling too quickly, inconsistent temperature, or items freezing in the refrigerator.
Possible Causes: Faulty thermostat, malfunctioning defrost system, or problems with the cooling system.
Repair: Test and replace the thermostat, check the defrost system components, or assess and repair the cooling system.
Water Leaks:
Symptoms: Puddles of water around the refrigerator or inside the freezer.
Possible Causes: Clogged or frozen defrost drain, damaged water supply line, or a malfunctioning water inlet valve.
Repair: Clearing the defrost drain, replacing the water supply line, or fixing/replacing the water inlet valve may be necessary.
Strange Noises:
Symptoms: Unusual sounds such as buzzing, rattling, or clicking.
Possible Causes: Faulty evaporator fan motor, condenser fan motor, or a malfunctioning compressor.
Repair: Lubricate or replace the fan motors or compressor as needed.
Ice Maker Issues:
Symptoms: No ice production, small or misshapen ice cubes, or issues with the ice dispenser.
Possible Causes: Malfunctioning ice maker module, defective water inlet valve, or a clogged water line.
Repair: Replace the ice maker module, water inlet valve, or clear any blockages in the water line.
Door Seal Problems:
Symptoms: Leaking cold air, frost buildup around the door, or difficulty in closing the door.
Possible Causes: Damaged or worn-out door gasket.
Repair: Replacement of the door gasket is usually required.
Electrical Issues:
Symptoms: Complete power failure or intermittent electrical problems.
Possible Causes: Faulty power cord, damaged electrical socket, or a malfunctioning electronic control board.
Repair: We may inspect and replace the power cord, assess the electrical socket, or replace the electronic control board if necessary.
It’s important to note that for complex issues or those related to sealed systems (like the compressor), it’s often best to consult a professional appliance repair service. Additionally, routine maintenance, such as cleaning coils and checking door seals, can help prevent some common problems.
