Search results for query: frost-free freezer

Many thanks JohnD. I did a search but obviously had not brought up the right threads, so some handy links from you. Think combination of the very humid hot weather and my dear daughter leaving the door open for while she uses something from the freezer might have exacerbated the issue. I...

Help! My fridge freezer has stopped working. Compressor feels quite warm/hot. It was making a buzzing noise this morning, and I came home just now and it's actually warm inside the fridge. Like something has heated it. I've unplugged it. It's frost free, and no water in the tray advice the...

Is it a frost-free fridge-freezer?

I did have a brew fridge/freezer before moving, the original idea was to just heat the brew, but the old fridge/freezer insulation was too good, and it had to be cooled for first 24 hours of starting a blew, I would start in freezer compartment and complete in fridge, I used a 18 watt demo floor...

I think you have to remember I fitted all RCD protection back in early 90's when they were quite new, so maybe my RCD's are not to modern standards and more like to trip with a spike, and fact resetting one RCD could cause the other one to trip if I did not turn off the MCB's first also points...

Freezer off time and still OK depends on type of freezer and where in the cycle the power failed. A chest freezer likely a couple of days, but an upright freezer frost free depends on if centre of freezing cycle so likely 8 hours, or just finished de-frost cycle then looking at less than 2...

I mean inside the freezer, the cavity behind the removable panel often fills with solid ice. I would take it off to check no matter what, it only takes 5mins to have a look. I'm not saying that's your problem but 'Frost Free' Hotpoint FF's are not actually Frost Free! I had to do it about once a...

Been wrangling with this for weeks now. Icing up and heater not working to defrost. Defrost timer is working. Have it apart but don't know where which colour wires go back duh ( I know stupid). Think now one had been pulled out but not replaced. So I have blue for the fan, black on the heating...

thanks again. I spoke to hotpoint and he said it should run out of that grill/hole in the bottom shelf. He also said frost free freezers should be defrosted once a year. Brand new information for me :)

Hi, Have an integrated frost free freezer. At the top it was making an awful noise. Had hotpoint out and he said the fan that blows the cold air is hitting ice and it needs defrosting. Since when do frost free freezers need defrosting? Anyone else had this problem? Thanks

I like the idea of a man cave, I have what was used as a granny flat by previous owners, full kitchen, bath/shower/toilet room, bedroom and living room. But wife uses it for storage. But the power requirements electric wise are low, it is nearly actually a cave being under the main house, it...

A Samsung may well indeed be different to a Hotpoint but on my Hotpoint FF I've had this issue twice over the years, albeit the freezer too cold and fridge not cooling but on those simply removing the freezer drawers gives access to the ice build up at the back of the freezer after removal of a...

this might be the common problem in frost-free fridge-freezers, where the air ducts inside the back panel (that cold air is blown through) become choked with ice when the automatic defrosting fails to work. Temporary cure is to take out all the food and eat it, then leave the appliance, turned...

Hi all An elderly friend has a Panasonic NR-B29SW2 Although it is supposed to be frost free, it recently started building up ice in the freezer section and the fridge part is too cold. A few weeks ago I used a heat gun to remove 2" thick ice from the tray under the defrost heater. after that...

Hi all have a candy built-in fridge freezer, fridge part is supposed to be frost free but for a while now there is a build up of ice in the bottom drain off area of the unit which I have to chip off every day. It is only 3 years old. Anyone got a solution?

A LED lamp may not be fine.... In our BOSCH fridge freezer, the internal lamp is part of the frost free mechanism - when its in the defrost mode, the lamp is illuminated at 1/2 power even when the door is closed. I haven't had cause to work out whether the lamp becomes connected in-series...

BristolBoy33, good evening. Try this ??? old post but may assist??? https://www.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/forums/forum/public-support-forums/help-and-support/fridge-and-freezer-forum/77041-beko-cda648fs-1-frost-free-fridge-freezer-fridge-is-frozen

Back in the 90's I returned to UK to find the RCD revolution, the big problem was neutrals not switched, so simply switching things off to locate the cause of tripping often did not work, and I ended up getting the tools out to disconnect things to test. It has all moved on since then, in the...

Frost-free go wrong a lot more often (see "related threads" below) and have a relatively short life. A basic freezer has almost nothing to go wrong.

Model 54152w from argos, which ofc is their own brand. Just seeing if it might be fit for purpose or maybe avoided. Not owned a frost free freezer before, are they ok, any tips? tia https://www.argos.co.uk/product/8108124?clickSR=slp:term:cheapest%20frost%20free%20fridge%20freezer:2:11:1
