Fridge Cooling Kyon Nahi Karta Hai - Solutions ..........
Temperature Control Is Improperly Set
Resetting the temperature control is often the first and easiest fix for a refrigerator that is not cool enough. If you have children in your home, they are sometimes the culprits behind temperature control changes, especially if they are on the fridge exterior.
But anything can inadvertently reset the temperature, including brushing against it with your hand or food items being pushed into the fridge or freezer. Change the thermostat down to the desired temperature setting. Be sure to check both the freezer and the refrigerator, as they should have separate controls. Don't expect the temperature in the box to change immediately. Instead, allow a full day for the temperature to restabilize.
Condenser Coils Are Dirty
When the condenser coils on the back of the refrigerator are dirty or covered in spiderwebs, the unit cannot properly cool. Unlatch the anti-tip brackets located at the exterior bottom-front of the cabinet. Carefully slide the refrigerator out and clean the coils with the hand attachment on a vacuum cleaner. Be careful not to bend or otherwise damage the coil
Door Gaskets Are Not Clean
Over time, the flexible door seals (gaskets) can become dirty from food or fingerprints, preventing the door from sealing properly. Wipe down the gaskets with a sponge and warm, soapy water. Also wipe down the sections on the fridge where the gaskets touch. Do not use abrasive cleaners, brushes, scouring pads, flammable fluids, or window cleaning sprays.
Food Items Are Blocking the Air Vents
Check inside the refrigerator box for food items that might be blocking the cool air vent. Large boxes or bags may have been inadvertently placed in front of the vents, preventing cool air from entering the unit. Pull those items aside or locate them to a different shelf
Refrigerator Is Understocked
Mass within the refrigerator helps to maintain coolness. And the mass that you’ll need to provide comes in the form of food items. Understocked fridges need to work harder to maintain cool temperatures. Well-stocked (but not overstocked) fridges have sufficient mass to retain those cool temperatures.
Door Gaskets Are Faulty and Need Replacement
If you have cleaned the door gaskets but they still do not seal correctly, it’s time to replace the gaskets entirely. To save money, this can be a do-it-yourself project. You’ll find universal and brand-specific door gasket
Refrigerator Is Out of Level
Refrigerators should be close to level for them to work properly. From side-to-side, the fridge should be perfectly level. From front-to-back, though, the fridge should tilt 1/4-inch toward the back to allow the doors to shut properly. Use a bubble or laser level to check.
Clearances Are Not Maintained
The refrigerator should have enough clearance on the sides and especially on the back for air circulation and in order to cool properly. Tolerances depend on your brand of refrigerator, so check the instructions for details. Generally, you’ll need at least 3/8-inch on the sides and at least 1-inch in back
Location Is Affecting the Cooling Capacity
If the refrigerator is placed in a warm or cold environment, such as outdoors or in a garage, this can affect the unit’s cooling capacity. Even when the fridge is located in a temperate environment, hot appliances such as dishwashers, ranges, or ovens adjacent to the fridge can affect the fridge’s cooling.
Electric Supply Is Faulty
Make sure that your refrigerator’s electrical plug is tight and solid in the outlet.
