OPERATING SOUNDS OF A FRIDGE FREEZER
These are the normal types of sound that your fridge freezer will make:
●The fridge freezer motor (compressor) makes a buzzing or humming sound when it is
running. This can be louder when it is first switched on. This sound will reduce over the first
few months.
●Gases flowing through the pipes can produce gurgling,bubbling, roaring or humming noises.
●Expansion and contraction of parts inside the fridge freezer can produce a cracking noise as
they rapidly change temperature.
●The circulating fan can make a whirring or buzzing sound as it blows cold air around the
compartments.
●A valve at the top of the fridge,that allows cold air into the compartment can make a whirring
sound as it opens or closes.
