Fridge Maintenance Advantages

There are several benefits of regular fridge maintenance for you, your appliance, and your family:

  • Extends your fridge’s lifespan
  • Prevents the need for costly fridge replacement
  • Provides a safe place to store your food
  • Avoids illnesses from eating spoiled food
  • Means there is one less thing you need to be worried about!

Before getting in touch with a professional, here are two of the most common problems and solutions to try if your fridge is freezing food.

Low Temperature Settings

If you have the temperature settings of your fridge turned down too low, then your fridge will start to freeze your food. The ideal temperature for storing fresh produce is from 38 to 40 degrees Fahrenheit.

To solve this issue, try turning the dial inside your refrigerator to increase the temperature. Once the fridge has had a chance to adjust, check to see whether your food is still getting frozen. If so, try turning up the temperature a little more.

Poor Food Storage

Not storing your food correctly could also cause your food to freeze. A fridge regulates its temperature by circulating cool air from cold compartments. If the food in your fridge is covering up the air vents, the cold air could get trapped in the fridge and be the cause of your food freezing.

Try pulling the food forwards and making sure it is distributed evenly. You might also need to put more food in your fridge. Cold air can accumulate much easier in an empty fridge which can cause a drop in temperature.
