Defrost Issue in Your Refrigerator

Swift Appliance Repair is a trusted local company with years of experience in appliance repair. One of the most common problems our customers face is the defrost issue - a failure of the automatic defrost system in refrigerators and freezers.

What Is a Defrost Issue?

Modern refrigerators are designed with an automatic defrost system to prevent excessive frost and ice buildup on the evaporator. When this system fails, ice begins to accumulate, air circulation is disrupted, and your fridge can no longer maintain the right temperature for safe food storage.

Signs You May Have a Defrost Problem

• Excessive frost or ice on the back wall or freezer section;
• The refrigerator compartment is not cooling properly;
• The unit runs almost constantly and makes unusual noises;
• Weak or no airflow coming from the vents.

Why Does This Happen?

A defrost issue usually comes from a failure in one of the key components: the defrost heater, defrost thermostat or sensor, control board, or wiring. When even one of these parts stops working, the automatic defrost cycle is interrupted and frost begins to accumulate.
