Domestic Refrigeration Services in Newcastle

Fridges always seem to stop running at the worst time – usually it’s before a party or a big lunch when you are relying on your fridge to keep your food and drinks safe and cold. If you find yourself in need of domestic refrigeration services in Newcastle, Cold Stream Services can help.

Importance of a Correctly Working Fridge

If you’ve ever had food poisoning you’ll know how important it is to make sure you have a correctly working fridge. The Australian Standard is for your fridge’s temperature to sit at 3 degrees. This ensures your food is kept cold enough to combat bacteria growth, but not so cold as to freeze.

The safety of your food is the most important reason to have a correctly working fridge. If it seems your food is going off a lot quicker than it should, we do recommend getting a domestic fridge technician out to check your fridge. This is a very good early sign that something in your fridge needs replacing or repairing.

Apart from food safety, an incorrectly working fridge may push up your electricity bill, and if your food is going off a lot quicker, it will also push up your food bill.

Why Would I Need Domestic Refrigeration Services in Newcastle 

There is plenty that can go wrong with your fridge, and if you don’t want to make your family and friends sick next time they visit, staying on top of maintenance and any issues with your fridge is important. The most common issues we see in domestic fridges are:

• Fridge not staying cold. This is often due to an issue with the condenser fan or evaporator fan.
• Broken ice makers. If you have a modern fridge with an in-built ice maker, the main thing that can go wrong is either the water inlet valve is broken or with the ice maker mechanism.
• Faulty thermostat. This can lead to either warm temperatures in the fridge, or the fridge not working.
• Freezer not fully freezing. Often, this can be due to the fridge needing re-gassing.
