Freezer Problems Worth a Service Call

  • Freezer runs constantly but stays warm
  • Clicking, buzzing or a loud fan
  • Chest freezer exterior feels hot to the touch for a long time
  • Freezer is too cold and freezing everything solid

Why Freezers Stop Freezing

Thermostat and controlsA temperature control or sensor that fails can leave the compressor off, running nonstop or cycling at the wrong point.
Door gaskets and hingesA torn or flattened gasket lets warm, moist air in, which loads the freezer with frost and makes it run long. Chest freezer lids and upright doors both wear gaskets.
Sealed systemA refrigerant leak or a compressor that will not start is the most expensive freezer repair and needs an EPA-certified technician. It is also less common than the parts above.

What a Freezer Technician Checks

Evaporator coil and defrostOn frost-free models the back panel comes off to look at the coil. A coil packed with frost points to the defrost heater, defrost thermostat, timer or control.
Condenser coilsDusty condenser coils are cleaned so the system can shed heat. Freezers in garages and basements collect dust and lint quickly.
FansThe evaporator fan inside and the condenser fan near the compressor are checked for power and for blades that are frozen in place or worn.

Hiring a Repair Company in Home Gardens

  • What guarantee do you give on parts and labor?

Freezer Repair FAQs: Home Gardens, CA

Do you repair chest and upright freezers?
Yes. Standalone chest and upright freezers use the same basic parts as the freezer section of a refrigerator: a compressor, condenser, evaporator, thermostat or control and, on frost-free models, a defrost system. Mention the type and whether it is manual or frost-free when you call.
Should I repair or replace my freezer?
Compare the repair quote with the price of a comparable new freezer and consider its age. Fans, defrost parts, thermostats and gaskets are usually worth fixing; a compressor or refrigerant repair on an older freezer often is not. Our repair-or-replace guide walks through it.
Can I keep a freezer in the garage?
Freezers are designed for a certain range of room temperatures, and very cold or very hot garages can stop them from working properly. Check the installation guide for the range your model allows; some models are sold as garage-ready.
How long will food stay frozen?
Keep the door closed. Food safety agencies say a full freezer holds its temperature for about two days and a half-full one for about a day if the door stays shut. Use a thermometer, and move food to a working freezer or a cooler with ice if the repair will take longer.
