Is Your Refrigerator Making Strange Noises? Here’s What You Should Know
Your refrigerator is one of the most essential appliances in your home, so when it starts making buzzing, clicking, or vibrating sounds, it’s normal to be concerned. At AQS Appliances, we often get calls from customers reporting unusual noises coming from the back or inside of their fridge. Let’s walk you through what could be happening and how to fix it.
📍 Common Symptom: Loud Humming or Clicking Sounds
It might start as a low hum, intermittent clicking, or a vibration that gets louder when the motor runs. These noises can have several possible causes—some simple, others requiring a professional’s touch.
🔍 Technical Diagnosis: What Might Be Causing the Noise?
Our certified technicians typically find these issues behind noisy refrigerators:
-
Compressor or fan noise: If the sound is coming from the back, it could be a noisy condenser fan or a compressor that's beginning to fail.
-
Vibrations from poor placement: Sometimes the refrigerator is placed too close to the wall or sits unevenly on the floor, causing annoying vibrations.
🛠️ Recommended Technical Solutions
Here’s how our experts usually solve these problems:
-
Fan cleaning or replacement: Dust and wear on the fan can create loud noises. Cleaning or replacing it often solves the issue.
-
Compressor inspection: If the compressor is humming or clicking, a technician should assess it for potential repair or replacement.
-
Leveling and isolation: Make sure the fridge is level and not touching any walls or furniture, to eliminate vibration noise.
