What causes the refrigerator sink to freeze? How to effectively de-ice
In daily life, we can often see the phenomenon of refrigerators freezing, which not only affects our daily use, but also causes a large loss to the refrigerator. Let’s find out what causes the refrigerator to freeze and what methods are there to remove it?
1. What causes the refrigerator to freeze
1. Everyone must first check whether there is any abnormality in the thermostat. Everyone knows that the temperature in the refrigerator is adjusted through a temperature controller. If the internal temperature of the refrigerator is adjusted too low, the refrigerator may form frosting. Generally speaking, if it is a refrigerator with mechanical knobs to adjust the temperature, it is more appropriate to adjust the refrigerator to 4-8 degrees.
2. Most refrigerators nowadays can automatically defrost, but if the refrigerator door is not closed in time, the frost compressor will be started frequently, resulting in the newly generated frost not being melted in time. Therefore, you must close the refrigerator door in time after using it.
3. If the inner wall of the refrigerator is deformed, a certain gap will be formed between the refrigerator and the evaporator of the refrigerator, which will affect the temperature conduction on the inner wall of the refrigerator and cause a series of bad effects.
4. Pay attention to there will be a drainage hole inside the refrigerator, which serves to drain the condensed water. If there is a blockage in the drainage hole and the drainage cannot be drained in time, it is easy to freeze. We can prepare a small bowl, pour some warm water into it, and then add two spoonfuls of salt. The purpose of adding salt is to sterilize the refrigerator, then put the water in the drain hole, take a chopstick or straw, and gently comb it. As long as this drainage outlet is sorted out, the freezing problem of the refrigerator can be solved;
2. How to de-ice the refrigerator when it freezes
1. If there is not much food in the refrigerator, you can unplug the power supply first, wait for the internal temperature to drop, use a hair dryer to blow hot air to blow it away, and wipe the ice water with a dry cloth. This way you can continue to use it;
2. This method also requires first emptying the refrigerator and cutting off the power, then boiling a pot of hot water, placing it in a stainless steel basin, pouring a few more bowls, and placing it in the refrigerator. After a few minutes, you can see the ice in the refrigerator slowly melted. At this time, the ice cubes can be easily removed. You don’t have to wait until it completely melts.
3. After using the above method to de-ice, we can put a plastic sheet on the inner wall of the refrigerator, so that after a period of time, if it is freezing, we can directly tear off the plastic sheet, which will make it more convenient.
Normally, we use the refrigerator in the correct way, clean and maintain it regularly, solve problems in a timely manner, and contact the after-sales service in time if there are any problems or find a professional master for door-to-door maintenance.
