They can fit in tight spaces including dorms. + +Some models can also sync with smart devices. You can also monitor your fridge from afar, and troubleshoot problems in the event of an issue. You can also control them with voice commands. + +Noise + +Fridges make a wide range of noises while they are operating. Some of these noises are more prominent than others. If you notice any of the below sounds find out the cause and search for a fix before calling a repair service for your fridge. + +Rattling + +The fridge can rattle in the event that there isn't enough space between it and the wall or cabinet or if its sitting at an unlevel angle. It's not difficult to solve. It's all you need to do is ensure that there is at least two inches between the fridge and wall or cabinet, or you can adjust the leveling screws or legs to increase or decrease the height of your fridge. + +Hissing + +When the compressor is cooling your food, it may produce a loud sound. This is a normal sound and it's caused by the compressor oil or flow of refrigerant through the system. If you're worried, count how often the compressor runs and call an emergency repair service for your fridge in the event that it occurs more often than normal. + +Squeaking + +The sound of refrigerators can be loud if the coils or fan are filthy. If you notice a fridge making squeaking sounds, clean the coils or fan using a vacuum cleaner using a brush attachment or a rag and water, or use dish soap and water. This should be done twice each year, or more often if your refrigerator is older or is heavily used. + +Clicking + +Frigs may also make an ear-piercing sound typically caused by ice buildup around the freezer fan. Defrosting by hand can fix the issue however it is likely to recur unless a professional is called in. + +If you hear clicking, turn the refrigerator back on. If you have an ice maker attached to your fridge, this sound could be caused by it. Make sure you switch it off when you are not making use of ice frequently. + +The hum of your refrigerator is normal. It can be more pronounced during certain times of the day, or following heavy stockings or intensive freezer functions. This is due to the fact that the refrigerator has to work harder and faster to keep your food cool however it isn't an indication of a problem with the refrigerator or its performance. + +Dust + +Dust in the house attracts dirt, bacteria and other microorganisms as well as traces from daily exposures to chemicals in the home. The tiny particles can be breathed in and elicit allergic reactions, and provide a perfect place for microbes to grow, including some that may cause infections when they come into contact with an open wound. + +It's impossible to completely clean a fridge but regular cleaning can help reduce dust build-up and keep the temperature constant. A dirty fridge also consumes energy when it overheats and operates inefficiently. If you suspect your fridge is making louder noises than usual, or if it's running out of power due to overworking it, it might be time to call in experts. + +In contrast to other airborne particles, dust doesn't simply drift in from the outside as is often believed. It is made up of resuspended dirt from the house which could be contaminated by lead or other poisonous substances. It also contains mold, pollen, and car exhaust. It also retains legacy pollutants such as DDT that were banned half decades ago. + +Certain compounds, such as flame retardants like decabromodiphenyl ether, volatilize and get into the air, however the majority of chemicals in dust from homes are transferred from one thing to another like by knocking fibers and minute bits of plastic off electronic equipment. High-molecular-weight substances, such as surfactants used in cleaners and paint strippers, also migrate directly into dust. + +In addition to contaminating food items in the refrigerator, a dusty fridge can also be detrimental to your health. It can contain allergens, such as pet dander or droppings from cockroaches, which can trigger asthma attacks and allergies. It also can contain bacterial spores, such as staphylococcus aureus, that can cause infections if they make their way into wounds that are open. + +Researchers have discovered that a variety of health conditions can be traced to contaminated dust, from cancer to cardiovascular disease to leukemia and inflammatory bowel disease. A recent study found that homes of children who were diagnosed with leukemia had higher levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons the PBDEs, and PCBs in their dust than the homes of healthy children. + +Condenser Coils + +If refrigerators are functioning properly, the coils on the back and front of the appliance are supposed to be able to disperse the heat generated by the compressor. If these radiator-like parts are covered in dust, pet hair or lint, the compressor has to work overtime trying cool the refrigerator, which reduces the efficiency of the unit. This is why it's crucial to regularly clean the coils. + +If you're looking to tackle the job yourself it is recommended you unplug the refrigerator and shut off the power source before beginning. This will reduce the risk that you or your family members may be struck by electricity while working on the appliance. If you're allergic to dust it's recommended to wear a face mask. Then you will have to locate the coils. They are usually located in the back of the refrigerator or, in certain cases, on the front and base. If you're unsure of where to find them go through your fridge's owner manual or contact the manufacturer for more information. + +After you've found the coils, take off the access panel (if there is one) and alternate between vacuuming them using the hose attachment that is narrow or brushing them using a condenser cleaner brush. It is essential to take your time when doing this so that you don't bend or damaging the coils. Replace the kick panel, or put the refrigerator in place, and connect it to the electrical outlet. + +You can hire an expert if you're at ease doing it yourself. It's cheaper and easier to keep up the cleaning routine to prevent the problem. + +Maintenance + +Fridges are powerful appliances that work all day long to cool your food. To make sure they are doing their job well, they need regular maintenance. This simple preventive maintenance will ensure that they are running smoothly for many years to come. + +Clean the door seals. The gaskets may become clogged with jelly and other sticky food items, allowing air to escape through tiny gaps. Every few months, clean them clean using a baking soda solution and warm water using the toothbrush or sponge. + +The fan in the rear of the refrigerator is another place to check. It can get noisy when it's blocked by insulation, paper and even mouse (gasp). Unplug the refrigerator remove all the shelves and remove any removable parts. Clean the coils and the space surrounding them using an air cleaner and the hose attachment. Make sure you turn the fridge back on after you're finished. + +It is [Best Fridges](https://www.frydge.uk/) to refer to the owner's manual to find out more about where to find the coils and the fan and what cleaning tools you may require.
