Just bought a brand new Frigidaire under-counter fridge, with integral ice box, from Currys. It cost about 150 quid, so wasn't an entry level model.
Problem: It is noisy. Not all the time. But every 30 mins or so, the pump starts up and runs for a couple of minutes. Then it stops with a load clunk. This is on a low setting, 2. As I live in a bungalow, the fridge tends to wake me up several times in the night!
Is there anything I can do to minimise the noise? The kitchen is laminate flooring. I plan to place a bit of carpet under the fridge to cut down on vibration. Could I pack some foam somewhere, I wonder?
And the reason why I bought a new fridge? The old Hotpoint was 10 years old and was starting to get a bit noisy! But not as much as the brand new one, though...
Thanks
Mike
