Often, there are malfunctions both in commercial and private refrigerators. All of them may be working properly, and then, suddenly, refrigerators stop cooling. Insufficient cooling leads to a violation of the temperature balance. The cooling system is trying to stabilize the temperature. The compressor, which normally stops 3-4 times per hour, runs non-stop, resulting in overheating. It is not easy to notice the lack of refrigeration in the refrigerator compartment, and only the unpleasant smell of spoiled food will indicate a problem. There is a simple solution to the problem - deep defrosting, but the effect is temporary: the situation will repeat itself after 1-2 days. Serious malfunctions in the operation of the unit are connected to the cooling. Let's consider the causes and signs of breakdown in more detail. If your refrigerator does not cool well, the reasons may be hidden in a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger is used to transfer energy from the inside of the refrigerator to the cold refrigerant. This lowers the internal energy of the inside and raises the internal energy of the refrigerant. Then a pump or compressor is used to do work on the refrigerant, adding additional energy to it and thus further raising its internal energy. Electrical energy is used to drive the pump or compressor. When this part is defective, normal cooling is impossible. Replace the exchanger and the issue will be eliminated. However, our specialists usually deal not only with the bad heat exchanger. Worn or old sealed system may need a replacement as well. Faulty seals force the refrigerator to waste energy.You also risk spoiling your food. Changing the door seal (often called a gasket) may be necessary, but it's not that difficult of a process. Replacing a faulty seal will save you money by not wasting energy. It’s not very expensive to buy a new gasket. Unfortunately, it is going to take a lot of time if doing that for the first time.
