When to Call for Freezer Repair

  • Freezer runs constantly but stays warm
  • Heavy frost on the back wall or around the door
  • An error code or temperature alarm
  • Water pooling under or inside the freezer

Why Freezers Stop Freezing

Evaporator and condenser fansOne fan moves cold air through the freezer and another cools the condenser. A fan that stops, or one that has frozen in place, is a frequent cause of a freezer that runs but does not freeze.
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.
Condenser coilsDust on the condenser coils makes the system work harder and run warmer, especially for freezers kept in garages and utility rooms.

What Gets Fixed on a Madison Freezer Call

Start componentsIf the compressor hums but will not run, the start relay and overload are tested before anyone looks at the compressor itself.
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.
Temperature and airflowThe technician measures the actual freezer temperature, checks that vents inside are not blocked by food or frost and listens for the evaporator fan.

Troubleshooting first? Start with repair or replace a freezer or ice maker? or freezer not freezing.

Freezer Repair Cost Ranges

A freezer repair is usually a fan, a defrost part, a control or a gasket plus labor. Reference ranges from published cost guides:

Before You Book in Madison

  • Do you work on chest and upright freezers as well as refrigerator freezers?
  • Is the technician certified to handle refrigerant if the problem turns out to be a leak or the compressor?
  • How often do you repair your brand freezers, and how quickly can you get parts?

Freezer Repair FAQs: Madison, IN

Can a technician fix a deep freezer?
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.
What should I do with the food while I wait?
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.
Why is there so much frost in my freezer?
On a frost-free freezer, heavy frost on the back wall usually means the defrost system has failed. Frost near the door usually means a gasket or door that is not sealing. Manual-defrost chest freezers need to be defrosted by hand when frost builds up.
What does a freezer repair usually cost?
Most companies charge a service call or diagnostic fee that is often applied to the repair if you go ahead. Fans, defrost parts, thermostats and door gaskets are usually worth fixing on a freezer that is otherwise sound; sealed-system work costs more. Our freezer repair cost guide lists published ranges.
