It is difficult to imagine a contemporary house without a fridge. This subject has become firmly established in our lives, because it products remain fresh for a long time. For those who often freezes a lot of fresh fruits, vegetables, greens in the winter and stored frozen meat, fish and semi-finished goods, are separate from the refrigerator freezers.
To these instruments were long, and regularly inside the ice does not grow, they need to be periodically defrosted. Therefore it is necessary to know how to quickly and correctly carry out defrosting without harm to the equipment so that the products do not have time to thaw and spoil.
defrost frequency
How often defrost freezer It depends directly on the company and model. This information is written in the instruction manual. If the device is bought long ago, and the instruction is lost - it can be found on the Internet. As a rule, for the proper functioning sufficient to carry out defrosting 1-2 times a year.
However, if the room humid, frost will form quickly and then have to defrost more often.
progress of work
Trickle cooling technology always requires manual operation.
Defrost the freezer, which works on the No Frost system automatically. But even such a technique is necessary at least once a year to turn off and wash.
the following algorithm:
- The first thing to do - to turn off the device from the network. Check whether the bottom pan melt water and whether it is properly installed. Regardless of its availability, lay on the floor in front of freezer doormat or old towel to avoid spreading of water.
- Pull out all the products from the chamber. That they long remained cold and thaw - put them in a large saucepan and Wrap in a blanket. If defrosting is carried out in the winter, the products can be taken out onto the balcony.
- Now leave the freezer open. To accelerate the process it can be put on the shelf pans or bowls with hot water. And the best part of the capacity on each shelf.
- Periodically check how the process - wipe moisture and manually remove ice falling off. Large pieces can be gently pick up a wooden spatula.
- When all the ice is thawed wall blow dryer on low power mode or wipe them with a sponge and hot water. It is necessary to remove the remains of frost.
- Wipe chamber soap or dishwashing detergent. After that, remove detergent remainder with a damp cloth and wipe dry.
Will only expand the product to your place, and the process is completed. Do not forget to turn the unit into the wall socket.
prohibitions
There are things, which in any case can not be done, so as not to damage the walls of the chamber:
- Not otkovyrivayte ice with sharp objects. So it is possible to break through the tube with Freon and then there will not be without repair.
- Do not use a powerful hairdryer. This device can remove residual frost only very carefully on medium or minimum power. Otherwise, it can damage plastic tubes or walls, damaging the cooling system.
- Do not allow the accumulation of meltwater. If moisture gets inside the cladding, it will inevitably lead to corrosion and rusting of metal parts. Do not leave the device open and unattended regularly remove accumulated water.
- Do not defrost in the heat. Optimally conduct defrosting in winter, when, after the procedure, the compressor is able to quickly gain a cold. If you want to get rid of ice dams in the hot - you wait for the evening. If possible, cool kitchen air conditioning.
- Do not leave the freezer damp. After bathing walls with soap and water is required to wipe all dry. If the freezer keep the moisture, it turns into frost and ice coat formed a new very fast. It was not necessary to carry out frequent defrosting, watch for dryness of the freezer.
Blocks of ice in the freezer is very bad influence on the device performance.
With regular maintenance, taking into account the recommendations of the freezer will work properly and without any loss of power for years to come.
