Sub-Zero Fridge Runs Constantly
Fridge Runs Constantly is usually one of a small number of specific, repairable causes — here's what to check and when it's worth calling a professional.
Common Causes
Houses that sit empty
20.9% of housing in this county is vacant on a given day against 13.5% statewide, and an appliance that fails unattended fails further than one that does not.
A specific failed component rather than the whole unit
Most single-symptom issues trace back to one part, not a systemic failure.
Wear on parts that see the most daily use
Moving parts and seals typically fail before electronic or structural components.
Local conditions that matter here
A fifth of the housing in this county stands empty on any given day — 20.9% against 13.5% statewide — and an appliance that fails in an empty house fails unattended. A sealed system that lost charge in May is found in November, and what would have been a repair has usually become a replacement by then.
