Re: Give up on Smeg fridge freezer?
So, am I given to understand that it might well not be an internal leak? Is there anything else it could be based on the symptoms?
I hate to chuck the thing out, I mean we got it on a deal but still a new one is £1500 !!! Seems criminal to put it to landfill because noone we call out knows how to even find what the problem is? I mean, we’re not going to replace it like for like due to the $$$ but it seems it would still be worth a couple of hundred quid to fix it if it’s possible, more than people would normally be willing to pay if the fridge was a cheaper model…
However, it seems impossible to find anyone else to come take a look, I’ve exhausted the only 2 I can find who would come out to us…
Re: Give up on Smeg fridge freezer?
Thank you for your reply!
Thing is, how likely is it that it would have developed an internal leak? I thought it was pretty well sealed up in there and leaks only occurred when people damage the pipework. Is there any feasible way that “just” a compressor failure would give the same symptoms?
If it is an internal leak, is that essentially non-fixable? How would you find it without destroying the back panel of the fridge?
Unfortunately in our area we are struggling for choice of engineers, your link for example does not find any where we are.
