Refrigerators your after a period of use, the fridge freezer on often appear a dense layer of snow clinging inside. This snow layer not only wastes space, but also wastes electricity. There are many causes of a refrigerator to freeze . Together with WebTech360 , let's find out the cause and the best solution to fix the frozen refrigerator!
How is the refrigerator frozen?
The phenomenon of freezing refrigerators is different from freezing. The freezer compartment of the refrigerator has the function of freezing water into ice or freezing other foods when stored in the freezer, while freezing is the phenomenon of white snow (porous ice) clinging to the refrigerator wall more and more. directly on storage inside the refrigerator. If the longer the layer of snow becomes thicker and leads to reduced cooling capacity, low efficiency, the refrigerator space will shrink.
The phenomenon of freezing the refrigerator makes the refrigerator space narrow
The temporary remedy is to turn off the power of the refrigerator, use a hair dryer to melt all the ice on the fridge wall, use paper and towels to absorb water.
The cause of the refrigerator is frozen
- Due to bad habits of using refrigerators. You often open the refrigerator door, put hot food in the refrigerator, or the freezer door is open, so the air and steam are in a lot, resulting in freezing the amount of air entering the refrigerator.
- Due to an error in the refrigerator's cooler, for this reason you should call a technician to check and repair for the fastest results ..
- Due to a broken thermal fuse located on the freezer compartment. If the thermal bridge breaks, the exhaust device will also stop working, causing ice to freeze in the refrigerator.
- The clam is cold or the refrigerator's sound is not clear, causing the resistance bar to heat up when the indoor unit is covered with snow.
- Due to the relay - also known as the Timer does not close to the defrost contact, causing the refrigerator to not cool in the cooler compartment, causing the vegetables underneath to be damaged due to insufficient cold for storage.
A refrigerator is frozen, which consumes electricity
If the refrigerator is regularly frozen, it will take a long time to clean and defrost it. This situation also makes the electricity bill skyrocketing because the cold air in the refrigerator cannot escape due to the snow blocking the pipe, so the refrigerator must operate continuously with greater capacity.
Refrigerators should be rinsed periodically to avoid too much snow that uses heavy electricity
In addition, when the refrigerator is frozen in the freezer compartment, it will obstruct the circulation of the cold air, and the cold vapor will become stagnant, preventing the freezing process. Sometimes the snow is too thick to keep the cold from blowing down the cooler, making the cooler from cooling. This is one of the reasons that the refrigerator does not shut off continuously, leading to a lot of energy costs, overload and damage to components.
Instructions on how to handle a frozen refrigerator
First, you must turn off all the power for the refrigerator to ensure it is safe to avoid unexpected dangers.
Then take out all the food from the refrigerator. To ensure that food doesn't spoil when left in the refrigerator, pack the food in a thermos package. Or you can fix your refrigerator when food stored in it is very low.
You can combine cleaning the fridge compartment with a soft cloth
Open all the doors of the refrigerator to let the snow in the refrigerator thaw, place a cup of hot water or let the fan turn towards the freezer so that the snow in the refrigerator melts faster.
You can combine cleaning the inside of the fridge compartment by wiping the inside of the refrigerator with a clean cloth. Take the plastic trays in the freezer compartment and rinse the cooler with water and let it dry, wait until the fridge melts the snow, we put the plastic trays in place.
Choose to buy refrigerators with non-freezing technology
For old and old refrigerators, they usually do not have a self-defrost function, so the refrigerator is frozen after a period of use is one of the very normal conditions. You should periodically defrost to help the refrigerator cool better.
You can choose to purchase a new line of refrigerators that use Hitachi's snow-free technology. Hitachi refrigerators use non-freezing technology that allows you to completely use 100% of the food storage space, for better food preservation. In addition, users will no longer spend too much time cleaning and defrosting the refrigerator tired and complicated.
Hopefully the above article of WebTech360 will help you to have more useful information to overcome the frozen cold, help preserve food as well as save electricity for the family.
