Fridge Freezer Repair Made Simple for Mumbai Homes

Is your fridge humming but the freezer is warm? Or maybe the whole unit is blowing hot air? You’re not alone – a lot of Mumbai households face these issues, especially during the monsoon when humidity spikes. The good news is you can often spot the problem in minutes and decide whether a DIY fix will do or if it’s time to call a professional.

First Things First: Quick Diagnosis

Before you yank out tools, take a look at these common culprits:

• Door seals – Check the gasket around the door. If it’s cracked or dirty, cold air leaks out and the freezer can’t stay frosty.
• Condenser coils – Dust builds up on the coils at the back or bottom of the fridge. When they’re clogged, the compressor works harder and may overheat.
• Thermostat settings – A wrong temperature dial is a simple fix. Keep the fridge at 3‑5 °C and the freezer at –18 °C.
• Ice buildup – Frost on the evaporator can block airflow. A manual defrost (unplug, leave doors open for a few hours) often solves the problem.
• Power issues – A loose plug or tripped circuit breaker can make the whole unit stop. Reset the breaker and ensure the outlet is stable.

Run through this checklist; if the fridge still isn’t cooling, you probably have a deeper issue.

When DIY Isn't Enough: Call the Experts

Some problems need a trained technician:

• Compressor failure – This is the heart of the cooling system. A humming sound with no cooling means the compressor might be dead.
• Refrigerant leak – If you smell a faint oily odor or see ice forming on the back wall, the refrigerant circuit could be compromised.
• Control board issues – Modern fridges use electronic boards to manage temperature. Faulty sensors or burnt circuits require professional replacement.

Trying to fix these yourself can be risky and might void any warranty. A certified repair service in Mumbai will diagnose the exact fault, order genuine parts, and ensure the unit runs safely.
