We responded to a service call for a Frigidaire refrigerator in Canton, OH. The refrigerator doesn’t seem cool and we have water on top shelf, the freezer doesn’t seem to have issue. Our diagnosis revealed the evaporator fan needed replacement.
The Problem
The customer reported that the refrigerator doesn’t seem cool and we have water on top shelf, the freezer doesn’t seem to have issue. This combination of symptoms typically points to an airflow problem within the refrigeration system.
Diagnosis
Our inspection confirmed that the unit needs evaporator fan. When the evaporator fan fails, cold air from the freezer section can’t circulate properly to the refrigerator compartment, leading to inadequate cooling and condensation issues.
The Repair
- Parts needed: Evaporator fan
- Estimate provided: Total repair would be 231.00
- Customer decision: Buying new
Is It Worth Repairing?
For this Frigidaire model, the customer chose to replace rather than repair. Given the age of many Frigidaire units and the cost of the evaporator fan repair, purchasing a new refrigerator can sometimes make more financial sense than investing in major component replacements.
Maintenance Tips for Frigidaire Refrigerators
- Keep refrigerator coils clean — dirty coils force the evaporator fan to work harder
- Don’t block air vents inside the refrigerator compartment with food items
- Replace door seals if they’re cracked or worn to maintain proper airflow
