Common Freezer Problems in Vernon Hills

  • No cold air: compressor runs but temps stay above 32°F.
  • Excessive frost: ice buildup blocking drawers and vents.
  • Loud or odd noises: buzzing, rattling, or clicking from motor or fan.
  • Water leaks: melting frost dripping onto the floor or pooling below.
  • Door seal failure: worn gaskets letting warm air in and causing cycles.

You'll see these in split-levels near Townline Road, ranch homes off Milwaukee Avenue, and everywhere around Vernon Hills.

How We Diagnose Your Freezer

  • Power & temperature check: confirm proper voltage and thermostat settings.
  • Compressor & relay test: measure amp draw and listen for unusual humming.
  • Coil inspection: examine evaporator and condenser coils for frost or debris.
  • Defrost system scan: test timer, heater, and thermostat for correct operation.
  • Fan & airflow review: ensure evaporator fan spins freely and circulates air.
  • Seal inspection: check door gaskets for gaps or damage using a simple paper test.

At a home near the Vernon Hills Metra, our amp check found a failing start relay—once replaced, freezer temps dropped to 0°F in under an hour.

Repairs We Handle

  • Compressor relay & start device swaps
  • Defrost heater, timer & thermostat fixes
  • Coil cleaning or replacement
  • Fan motor and blade service
  • Door gasket installs

Just this morning I realized my front-loading freezer in Evanston had stopped cooling mid-use-loads of food piling up fast. A quick call to DTSOL Appliance Repair & HVAC and their tech was at my door within a couple of hours. He pinpointed a worn idler pulley, swapped in a new one on the spot, and ran a full spin-test to confirm smooth operation. From start to finish, it took less than two hours, and now my freezer works like new. Exceptional skill and efficiency-DTSOL earns my highest recommendation!

I never thought I'd resort to power tools on my freezer day, but DTSOL Appliance Repair & HVAC made it happen. My Park Ridge Whirlpool was shaking like crazy-so their tech replaced all four shock absorbers, got the cabinet perfectly level, and even drilled tiny drainage holes in the base to prevent water pooling and future imbalance. Now it spins smooth and whisper-quiet. Totally blown away by their ingenuity and speed-no new freezer needed!
