Has your Freezer lost its cooling? From making quick meals to ice cubes for cold-drinks, the freezer has an important role in our day-to-day life. Freezers were invented in the 1940s. Now-a-days freezers have come a long way with modern technology, but as it is a hardware machine, it still may face problems in the long run. Most of the freezer users have encountered freezer issues. Before calling an expert for repairing, you can do a little check-up and repair by yourself, which will save you a lot of money. Here in this blog we have mentioned the 5 most common freezer problems along with its solution.

1. Frost or Ice Buildup:-

One of the most common problems with the freezer is frost and ice build up. If you notice ice or frost in the rear of your freezer, the problem can be with the defrost timer, defrost heater or thermostat. If not, the problem is with the door. If your door is damaged, then it will allow moisture to enter into the freezer, which will get frozen. 

  • Solution:-This problem can be solved manually. You can manually defrost your freezer and turn it on again. After that try resetting your defrost system. If you notice there is a problem with your door, then you have to change the door or tighten it. If your problem hasn’t been solved yet after these steps, then you have to hire an expert to check what is wrong with your freezer and repair it.

2. Freezer Stops Working:-

This problem may seem panicking because the logical conclusion is that you will need to buy a new freezer for yourself. When this happens, it is not always the problem with your freezer but may be the problem with your power outlet. Do check your power outlet by connecting other devices to it. If you find that your outlet is damaged, then an electronic can repair or replace the outlet. This can also happen if the thermostat and compressor is broken.

  • Solution:-If you find that your outlet is damaged, then an electronic can repair or replace the outlet. But if the problem is with your freezer, then do repair it by an expert or replace the freezer. If the problem is with your thermostat and compressor, then try lowering your thermostat a bit, and the freezer will start working temporarily.

4. Freezer Is Too Warm:-

This is a bigger problem with a freezer. A freezer is supposed to keep the items in it cool. But if it is warm, it can compromise the safety of your food items. If you find your freezer is too warm than usual, then the problem may be with the thermostat. A thermostat reads the temperature and tells the appliance how cold it should be inside the freezer. The problem also may lie with the sealant. If your sealant is damaged, it may cause the cold air to escape rather than keeping it inside the freezer.
