Signs Your Freezer Needs a Technician

  • Compressor hums but will not start
  • Door or lid does not seal or pops back open
  • Chest freezer exterior feels hot to the touch for a long time
  • Clicking, buzzing or a loud fan

What Usually Goes Wrong

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.
Defrost systemFrost-free freezers melt frost off the evaporator coil on a timer or a control. When a defrost heater, thermostat or timer fails, the coil ices over, air stops moving and the freezer slowly warms.

Inside a Freezer Repair Visit

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.
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.
Door gasket and alignmentGaskets are checked for tears and gaps and the door or lid for sag. A poor seal shows up as frost near the opening and long run times.

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

What Belfast Owners Should Know

Most freezer calls in Belfast come down to the same handful of parts: the defrost system, a fan, the temperature control, the door gasket and dirty condenser coils.

Maine has no general appliance repair license, but installing or servicing propane and natural gas appliances requires a Maine Fuel Board propane and natural gas technician license with an appliance connection and service authorization.

In Maine, you can check a license with the Maine Professional and Financial Regulation Licensee Search or report a problem to the Maine Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.

Hiring a Repair Company in Belfast

  • Will you check the defrost system, fans and controls before looking at the sealed system?
  • Do you work on chest and upright freezers as well as refrigerator freezers?
  • What guarantee do you give on parts and labor?

Freezer Repair FAQs: Belfast, ME

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.
Why is my freezer not freezing?
The usual causes are a frosted-over evaporator from a failed defrost part, a fan that stopped, a dirty condenser, a door that is not sealing or a control problem. A refrigerant leak or compressor fault is less common. A technician checks each in order before replacing parts.
What causes heavy frost buildup?
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.
Why does my garage freezer stop freezing in winter?
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.
