Title: Fridge Issue
Post by: vinyljunkie on February 01, 2019, 06:21:38 PM
Hey - So my Kegerator seems to be nackered, it's just not getting the temp down inside the fridge. Ive tried two STCs just to see if that was it and no joy.

Can anyone recommend someone who will repair it or do I need to let go?

Depends how much it cost you but I'd doubt it'd worth getting someone out

Another thing to be careful of with a dodgy fridge is that the pump/flow mechanism might be knackered, but the fridge is still trying its darnest to get your temp down resulting in a rather unpleasant spike in your leccy bills.

Learned that one the hard way too.

And to echo Phil's point, fridge repair men are normally, by bizarre coincidence, fridge salesmen too.
