Chest and Upright Freezers

Upright Freezers

Upright freezers typically feature front-facing doors, allowing easy access to the contents, multiple shelves, drawers, and compartments, enabling organized storage of frozen goods.

Most common brands in this category: Fisher and Paykel, Westinghouse, Hisense, Kelvinator, Simpson, Electrolux, LG.

If you encounter any of these issues, consider our professional upright freezer repairs to ensure your appliance operates efficiently.

Upright freezers can experience several common issues, including:

  1. Heating Element Failure: One frequent problem is a malfunctioning heating element. This element helps melt ice buildup during the defrost cycle, which occurs every 4-6 hours. Signs of a failed heating element include a gradual temperature increase, top shelves thawing while the bottom remains frozen, and ice buildup on the freezer's back wall. A faulty heating element disrupts the defrost cycle and can lead to irregular temperature distribution.
  2. Mainboard or Timers Failure: When the mainboard fails, it can result in ice buildup at the bottom of the freezer and thawing products on the top shelves. This happens when the mainboard fails to time the defrost cycle properly, causing the evaporator coil to ice over. Another symptom is a completely silent freezer with no cooling, while lights remain operational. In such cases, repairing or replacing the mainboard is necessary.
  3. Evaporator Fan Failure: A malfunctioning evaporator fan can lead to uneven cooling. The top shelves may not be cold enough, and products start to thaw, while the bottom section remains frozen. To check the fan's status, listen for humming or buzzing sounds with the freezer door closed. If the fan is running or stops when you open the door, it's likely functioning correctly.

Chest Freezers

Chest freezers are a very old design which hasn’t been altered for 50 years.
They are made up of a cabinet pipping compressor refrigerant and thermostat.

Chest freezers can encounter some common problems, primarily related to gas leaks or compressor failures.

Symptoms of Compressor Failure

When a chest freezer's compressor fails, it's usually quite noticeable. You may hear a buzzing noise every 2-3 minutes, followed by a distinctive click, and then silence for another 2-3 minutes. To restore normal operation, the compressor will need replacement.

Symptoms of a Gas Leak

Gas leaks in chest freezers typically manifest as a lump of ice buildup in one corner inside the freezer wall. Unfortunately, when a gas leak occurs, the unit is beyond repair and ready for disposal, regardless of its age. These leaks often develop within the cabinet's walls and cannot be accessed without irreparably damaging the cabinet itself.

If you're experiencing any of these issues with your chest freezer, contact us for professional chest freezer repair services.
