Refrigerator Not Defrosting?
A refrigerator that is not defrosting properly can develop excessive frost buildup, restricted airflow, and cooling problems. In many cases, the freezer may appear cold while the refrigerator compartment becomes too warm. Everline Appliance Repair diagnoses and repairs refrigerator defrost system problems on all major brands, including Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Samsung, LG, GE, Frigidaire, Bosch, Sub-Zero, Viking, Thermador, and more.
Common Signs of a Refrigerator Defrost Problem
- Excessive frost buildup inside the freezer
- Refrigerator section too warm
- Freezer temperature fluctuating
- Reduced airflow from vents
- Ice buildup on the back freezer panel
- Refrigerator running constantly
- Food not staying cold enough
- Frost-covered evaporator coil
- Uneven temperatures throughout the refrigerator
Modern refrigerators rely on a defrost system to remove frost from the evaporator coil. When a component in the defrost system fails, frost continues to build up until airflow becomes restricted and cooling performance is affected.
