Why is My Fridge Making a Humming Noise?
A soft humming noise from the fridge is nothing to worry about; it is the compressor. However, if the noise gets louder and you can hear it from the next room, your compressor needs fixing. If you hear a sort of chirping noise from your fridge, don’t take it lightly. It might be the evaporator fan, and it needs immediate fixing for efficiency. Common culprits that make your fridge hum include:
- Dirty condenser coils: Dust on the condenser coils makes the refrigerator struggle and run noisier.
- Faulty evaporator fan: A defective fan can cause excessive noise in circulating cool air.
- Compressor problems: A faulty compressor may make loud humming since it struggles to cool the fridge efficiently.

Start by cleaning the condenser coils to remove any dust or debris, and then check if the evaporator fan is functioning properly. If the humming persists or becomes louder, it could be a more serious issue, particularly with the compressor, which may require expert attention.
