FAQ

Not cooling, answered.

Is a warm refrigerator always a compressor problem?

No — thermistor faults and blocked condenser coils cause the same symptom far more often, and cost much less to fix.

How long can food safely sit in a warm refrigerator?

As a general rule, perishables above 40°F for more than two hours should be discarded — worth knowing while you wait for a technician.
