What if your refrigerator is not cooling?

We know how annoying it is to want to quench your thirst with a glass of cold water from the fridge, and find it piping hot.


What to do in this case? ...


These devices are complicated and it is best to call in a technician. But there are tips that will help you fix some issues instead of making an unnecessary call to technical service.

A refrigerator that does not cool is the most common problem that can happen. To prevent, here are some tips:
Make sure you clean your fridge regularly
Do not introduce more food than its limit
Check that the products are in good condition and that liquids do not spill. This is not only unpleasant (bad smells), but also deteriorates the condition of your equipment.

When your refrigerator is not cooling or badly, check the following:

- That the refrigerator is plugged in and that the current is circulating well.
- If the bulb is on.
- If the engine makes noise.
- If the fan is doing its job.
- If the refrigerator is integrated and it is hot, check that there is sufficient ventilation to cool the engine.
- Clean the condenser.
- For freezers, check that the fans are working properly. They should turn on when you close the door after opening it.
- If the engine runs, but does not cool, it could be a gas leak. You can call the technician to let them know if their repair is recommended or if it is better to buy a new device.

There are countless reasons why your refrigerator has stopped cooling. To limit them, good maintenance is essential. In case of a situation that escapes you, call a technical service.
