Frequently Asked Questions

What are some of the most common problems in freezers?

Problems in freezers can vary, but here are some common issues that can occur:

Excessive Frost Build-up: Freezers may develop excessive frost or ice build-up over time, which can impact cooling efficiency and storage capacity. This can be caused by a faulty door seal, improper temperature settings, or a malfunctioning defrost system.

Inadequate Cooling: If the freezer is not cooling properly, it may be due to a faulty compressor, evaporator fan, or condenser coil. Insufficient cooling can lead to thawing of frozen food and potential spoilage.

Excessive Noise: Unusual or loud noises coming from the freezer, such as grinding, buzzing, or rattling sounds, can indicate issues with the compressor, fan motor, or other internal components.

Leaking Water: Water leakage inside or outside the freezer can be a sign of a blocked or clogged defrost drain, damaged water line, or malfunctioning water inlet valve.

Door Seal Problems: A faulty or damaged door seal can result in warm air entering the freezer, leading to frost accumulation and inefficient cooling. This can be caused by wear and tear over time or improper closing of the door.

Frequent Cycling On/Off: If the freezer is cycling on and off too frequently, it may indicate a problem with the temperature control thermostat, defrost timer, or other electrical components.

Malfunctioning Ice Maker: If your freezer has an ice maker, issues such as failure to produce ice, overfilling, or improper dispensing can occur due to problems with the water inlet valve, ice maker motor, or ice mold.

Electrical Problems: Electrical issues like power surges, faulty wiring, or tripped circuit breakers can affect the freezer’s operation and may require professional attention.

These are general problems. Specific issues can vary depending on the make, model, and age of the freezer.

If you encounter any problems with your freezer, start by consulting the appliance’s manual. If you don’t find answers, contact us. One of our qualified appliance technicians will give you recommendations and a free quote over the phone.

Should I replace or repair my freezer?

The decision to replace or repair a freezer will depend on various factors, such as:

Age of the Freezer: If your freezer is old and has already exceeded its expected lifespan (usually around 10-15 years), then it may be more cost-effective to replace it instead of investing in frequent repairs.

Cost of Repair: The cost of repair can vary depending on the type and extent of the problem. If the repair cost is high, it may be more economical to replace the freezer, especially if it’s an older model. On the other hand, if the repair cost is relatively low, and the freezer is relatively new, it may be worth repairing.

Frequency of Breakdowns: If your freezer has a history of frequent breakdowns, it may be an indication that it’s time to replace it. A new freezer can provide better energy efficiency and performance, which can save you money in the long run.

Energy Efficiency: If your freezer is an older model, it may not be as energy-efficient as newer models. Upgrading to a new freezer can help you save on energy costs over time.

Environmental Impact: If you’re concerned about the environmental impact of your appliances, replacing an older, less energy-efficient freezer with a new one can help reduce your carbon footprint.

Ultimately, the decision to replace or repair your freezer will depend on your individual circumstances and preferences.

If you’re unsure, give us a call! Our professional appliance technicians can advise you on the best course of action.

Why is my freezer not getting cold?

This is one of the most common problems we’ve seen in our clients, and there are several potential causes, such as:

Temperature Setting: Check if the temperature setting on your freezer is set correctly. Ensure it is set to a low enough temperature to maintain freezing conditions.

Power Supply: Verify that the freezer is properly connected to a power source and that the circuit breaker or fuse is not tripped. Make sure the power cord is securely plugged in.

Door Seal: Inspect the door seal or gasket for any signs of damage, cracks, or gaps. A faulty door seal can allow warm air to enter the freezer, leading to inadequate cooling. Clean the seal and ensure it is properly aligned and sealed shut.

Condenser Coils: Dust and debris can accumulate on the condenser coils, located either at the back or underneath the freezer. Clean the coils using a vacuum or brush to improve cooling efficiency.

Evaporator Fan: The evaporator fan circulates air throughout the freezer. If it’s not functioning correctly, cold air may not reach all areas of the freezer. Listen for the sound of the fan running, and if it’s not operating, it may need to be replaced.

Defrost System Issues: If the freezer has excessive frost build-up, it may indicate a problem with the defrost system. A malfunctioning defrost heater, defrost thermostat, or defrost timer can disrupt the normal cooling process.

Refrigerant Leak: A refrigerant leak can cause the freezer to lose its cooling ability. Look for any signs of oil or refrigerant stains around the freezer or inside the unit. If you suspect a refrigerant leak, it’s best to contact a professional technician for repairs.

If you’ve checked these common causes and your freezer still isn’t getting cold, we can help you. Our technicians are highly qualified and can diagnose and repair the specific issue.

How do I know if my freezer compressor is working?

First of all, keep in mind that compressors are complex components, and troubleshooting them may require specialized knowledge and equipment.

With that said, to determine if your freezer compressor is working, we recommend you do the following checks:

Listen for Compressor Noise: When the freezer is running, listen for a humming sound coming from the back of the unit. This sound indicates that the compressor is functioning. If you don’t hear any noise, it could indicate a problem with the compressor.

Check for Vibrations: Place your hand on the back of the freezer or near the compressor. If you feel vibrations, it indicates that the compressor is running. Strong vibrations or excessive shaking may suggest an issue with the compressor or its mounting.

Temperature Reading: Monitor the temperature inside the freezer over a period of time. If the temperature is not dropping to the desired level, or if it’s not maintaining a cold temperature consistently, it could be a sign of compressor malfunction.

Condenser Fan Operation: The condenser fan, located near the compressor, helps cool down the compressor and dissipate heat. If the fan is running while the freezer is operational, it indicates that the compressor is receiving proper cooling. If the fan is not functioning, it may lead to compressor issues.

If you have performed these checks and are still uncertain about the functionality of the compressor, contact a qualified appliance technician.

We can perform more in-depth diagnostics and tests to determine the exact condition of the compressor and address any potential issues.

Why is my freezer not cooling but the light is on?

If your freezer’s light is on but it’s not cooling, possible causes can be:

Temperature Setting: Check the temperature setting on your freezer. Ensure that it is set to a sufficiently low temperature for freezing. If the temperature setting is too high, it may prevent the freezer from cooling properly.

Faulty Compressor: The compressor is responsible for circulating refrigerant and generating the cooling process. If the compressor is not functioning correctly, it can result in insufficient cooling. A faulty compressor may require professional repair or replacement.

Condenser Coils: Dust and debris can accumulate on the condenser coils, located at the back or underneath the freezer. If the coils are dirty or blocked, it can impede proper heat dissipation, leading to inadequate cooling. Clean the coils using a vacuum or brush to improve cooling efficiency.

Defrost System Issues: If your freezer has excessive frost build-up, it may indicate a problem with the defrost system. A malfunctioning defrost heater, defrost thermostat, or defrost timer can prevent the freezer from cooling properly. In such cases, the freezer may need to be manually defrosted or repaired by a professional.

Faulty Temperature Control Thermostat: The temperature control thermostat regulates the cooling cycle of the freezer. If it is faulty or out of calibration, it may not signal the cooling system to run when needed. This can result in insufficient cooling. The thermostat may require replacement to restore proper functionality.

Insufficient Air Circulation: Check if there is proper airflow inside the freezer. Ensure that the vents and air passages are not blocked by food items or other obstructions. Insufficient air circulation can hinder cooling performance.

If you’ve checked these potential causes and the freezer is still not cooling, contact a qualified appliance technician at NWAR. They will give a proper diagnosis and perform the necessary repairs. Call us today for a free quote over the phone!
