The operating modes of the refrigerator are clearly figured out. First of all, we will ensure the correct freon pressure. Refueling is an art that requires professional skills and experience. In a body shop, the refrigerant cylinder is weighed with a scale, pouring in as much as needed. Every single gram is counted. Refrigerators require a more tricky method. Freon leak is dangerous from the point of view of ignition. If a leak occurs, the concentration does not reach the explosive threshold. We strongly do not recommend eliminating the Freon leak issue on your own as it is dangerous. Nevertheless, there are a couple of steps you can implement before the technician comes to your home. A refrigerator’s condenser coils cool the flowing refrigerant, helping create cool air for the refrigerator. Over time, these coils can become coated in dust and dirt, preventing the refrigerant from adequately cooling. When this happens, you’ll find your refrigerator won’t get cold but the freezer will operate normally. Regular coil cleanings every 6-12 months should prevent the buildup that can cause cooling problems.
Follow these steps to clean LG refrigerator condenser coils:
- Move the refrigerator away from the wall and disconnect its electrical power.
- Aim a narrow vacuum hose attachment at the coil vents on the bottom of the refrigerator’s rear panel.
- Circulate the hose back and forth across the vents to remove dust and debris.
- Restore the refrigerator’s power and position it back in place.
Take care of your LG refrigerator to prolong its life and be sure about the best functioning. Your manual instructions contain all necessary information about maintenance and cleaning. Arrange a professional visit once or twice a year to test the parts and predict expensive troubleshooting.
