Same-Day Refrigerator Repair in Fort Myers, FL — Refrigerator Stopped Freezing
A customer in Fort Myers, FL contacted us after noticing that their refrigerator suddenly stopped freezing. Instead of keeping items ice-cold, the temperature inside continued to rise. At the same time, the compressor was running nonstop, which is a clear sign that the cooling system is struggling.
Diagnosing the Problem
After arriving on site, our technician performed a full diagnostic check and found:
- Poor cooling performance — the unit failed to reach freezing temperatures even though the compressor was active.
- Compressor running constantly — it never cycled off, indicating that the system couldn’t reach the cooling threshold.
- Low refrigerant level — the symptoms pointed to a refrigerant loss or previous improper charging, which reduced the cooling efficiency.
Repair Performed
To restore the freezer function and normal operation, we completed the following steps:
- Checked the system for leaks and verified refrigerant pressure.
- Fully evacuated the system to remove moisture and air.
- Recharged the refrigerator with R-600a refrigerant.
- Tested several cooling cycles to confirm proper compressor operation.
- Monitored temperature to ensure the unit was freezing again.
Results
- The refrigerator regained its freezing capability.
- The compressor now cycles on and off normally instead of running continuously.
- Temperature inside the unit is stable and within the correct range.
- The customer avoided food spoilage and the cost of replacing groceries.
