The refrigerator buzzes a lot, even though you bought the quietest one? Do not despair! F.ua will advise you on how to reduce the noise of the unit.

Why is a recently bought refrigerator humming so much?

If you have started up a new refrigerator, and the noise of the refrigerator seems too loud to you, check that the shipping bolts that fix the compressor mounting springs have been removed. If left alone, the springs will not be able to absorb the vibration of the compressor, which is why the refrigerator makes a particularly loud noise.

Make sure the appliance is level. Place a spirit level on its top and measure the slope. Adjust the feet until the unit is level.

Pay attention to whether the refrigerator is in contact with furniture. For normal operation of the unit, leave a gap of 5-10 cm.

It will take 3-5 days for a new device to enter normal operation. In this case, the noise level can be overestimated.

3 common problems that cause refrigerator noise

If your low-noise refrigerator suddenly buzzes a lot, listen to it:

  • compressor makes noise - the pistons or their rings may have worn out. In this case, the motor will not only make a loud noise, but also work for a long time without switching off;
  • the compressor hums especially strongly at the beginning and at the end of work... The compressor shock absorbers are likely to be loose and vibrate a lot. Because of this, when it starts or stops, there is a strong jerk and the noise increases;
  • the unit makes a lot of noise and rattles... A layer of ice often freezes near the fan. During operation, its blades touch on ice, so you hear a creak. Defrost the appliance for 10-12 hours. If the problem reoccurs after a while, the problem may be the evaporator heater or the door seal.

To prevent damage, it is better to contact qualified craftsmen who will professionally diagnose and eliminate the malfunction.
