Kenmore 18 cu ft chest freezer




By kscronz on Nov 26, 2007

" "
this freezer came with the house, its in the basement which is very dusty, dirty. It sounds like the compressor turns on when I plug it in, but after about 4 hours it still isn't cold. I am considering having a repairmain look at it, but wonder if there might be some simple things I could do first.

A chest freezer is a very simple machine. There are no fans or defrost system to cause a problem.
You need to make sure the thermostat is not turning off to soon.
If the compressor is running but it does not cool, then there is a problem with the refrigerant system.
You will want to check around with some local repair services, but about the cheapest you would have it repaired will be around $250. That is if it can be repaired at all. The majority of the refrigerant lines are inside the cabinet and unrepairable.
Post back if you have any questions.
