Many thanks everyone that's tried to help. It seems the unit has decided to fix itself! Well, at absolute maximum cooling (& it's fairly full), I'm getting 4°C, so I'm leaving well alone for now, whilst keeping an eye on temp's. Regards, Rog'

Probably worth mentioning that the pipes etc at the back are pretty clean, and the freezer is at -21°C, so the thing is basically working :unsure:

Everything point to thermostat, I'm just surprised it's semi-working. Generally you'd expect a thermostat to either work or go open circuit switching off cooling entirely. Guess locating my multi-meter is the answer. Less typing, more doing, perhaps ;)

It's 100% defrosted, was done last Monday

Actually I can see what's cooling the fridge! The freezer, below, is full of elements.

I don't think there is one! Despite being relatively new, it's very basic, no frost free. No fan/s I can see or hear, no ducts or even drain holes I can see in the fridge compartment (I've removed the salad doobrie to double check) :unsure:

You're both soooo much more knowledgeable than me. In my very limited experience, I've used self cutting taps about six times, never had an issue; but certainly I see that six previous successes don't guarantee a seventh and don't plan to use one this time! I'm still in the planning stage with...

As the title suggests, this units' fridge section just doesn't seem to get cold enough. Even on maximum cooling it's 8.5 C. It's only a couple of years old and the freezers is cooling to the correct temperature, so I assume it must simply be the thermostat has lost some of its' gas? Am I...

I have a Fridgemaster Fridge Freezer, my thermostat also seems to have no "off" setting; I'd suggest it's just the way they are?

You guys are SO helpful, thank you so much. I'll update once I get the bits I require and begin the job. I may well have mire questions! Best Regards, Roger

Thanks so much everyone for the advice and tips. I've decided to increase the length of the inlet/outlet to make things easier & to be sure I can achieve the height of outlet hose you gents have advised. Inlet straightforward, outlet less so as it has no rear connection outlet, as such. See...

Harry, thank you so much. So I need a short piece of copper pipe between the copper outlet and the item in the 4th pic? (which is a pain as I can think of a way buying 50cm of pipe (time for skip diving, perhaps!)

I live in a flat with a tiny kitchen too small to install a washing machine, and no doubt has never had one. I plan to install it just outside the kitchen, pipes that came with it seem just long enough, although in-time I might get slightly longer ones to make routing easier. Under the sink...
