Refrigerator cleaning tips:
When cleaning your refrigerator always take care not to punch a hole in the
condenser or evaporator lines. The condenser lines on a refrigerator is located
behind the refrigerator in the compressor department. For older refrigerators, the
condenser is located behind the refrigerator and attached to the refrigerators back
wall. It's a good idea to clean your refrigerator once a year. If you have pets that
shed lots of hair you may consider cleaning the refrigerator twice a year.
Condenser coils will get clogged with lint and overheat the compressor and will
effect cooling if not attended to.
One way to see if the coils in your refrigerator need cleaning is to open both doors
on the refrigerator and feel the mulligan. The mulligan is the wall that separates the
fridge side of your refrigerator from the freezer side of your refrigerator. If the
mulligan in your refrigerator is warm the condenser coils should be cleaned. The
mulligan in the refrigerator can get so hot that it will burn your hand. In this case,
the refrigerator condenser lines should be cleaned immediately.
If you notice ice build up on the back wall of the refrigerator (freezer section), DO
NOT chip at the ice with anything especially ice picks or screw drivers. Instead it
has to be melted slowly so the evaporator lines aren't punctured. Ice build up on
the back wall of refrigerator is a sign of a bigger problem and should be diagnosed
by a professional refrigerator repair technician. If ice build up is present in the
refrigerator its best not to melt but instead once again call a Houston refrigerator
repair technician. Melting of the ice build up in the refrigerator will make it harder to
diagnose the appliance.
It is usually easier to clean condenser coils on a refrigerator with a vacuum cleaner
but you can also use a special brush that can be purchased at any appliance parts
store or your local hardware store. On General Electric (GE) refrigerators 2000
model and newer, old tooth brushes work great. Evaporator coils, located behind
the inner back wall in the freezer should never be cleaned except by a
professionally trained refrigerator service person.
When cleaning refrigerators that have the ice bucket located in the refrigerator
(freezer) door care should be taken not to get any type of cleaning solution in or
around the optical laser eye that scenes ice level. There is a small computer board
on both inner sides of the refrigerator wall that has to stay dry.
On top and bottom refrigerator models be careful not to get any derby in or around
the drain hole. Drain hole is located behind the freezer wall but theres usually a
small gap between mulligan and refrigerator freezer back wall where food etc., can
get eventually clogged. If the drain hole gets clogged in the refrigerator, freezer
back wall will have to be taken off and hair dryer will be needed to defrost the
ice/debrys blocking drain hole.
My refrigerator isn't cooling and I hear a Hmm..... CLICK sound.
This is one of the most common refrigerator problems and can lead to severe
refrigerator problems if action isn't taken right away. First, if your refrigerator is
having this problem you should immediately unplug or set cold control to zero. Cold
control setting can be found in the fridge side of your refrigerator usually the knob
that has numbers 0-9 on it. On digital model refrigerators either hold down the
power button until unit switches off or set digital temperature to zero. If action isn't
taken right away your compressor could overheat and burn out causing a higher
refrigerator repair bill.
