Hi!
I thought I'd get some opinions on this problem, to be better informed, before contacting Sears about it.
We've got a two-month old large side-by-side Sears refrigerator made, I believe, by Whirlpool. It's noiser than I'd like, and seems to run more than other refrigerators we've had. But maybe I'm just thinking that because I noice the noise, which is why I'm posting my question. It's one of the 'Energy Certified' models.
Example: Today, after a period of at least 45 minutes when the unit hadn't been accessed (no opening of door, no access to ice), the compressor came on (I guess it's the compressor... whatever's making the noise) and ran for over 16 minutes. That seems to me to be a long time to bring the temp back down. If it matters, it was only 73 degrees in the house with low humidity (Arizona), and it was pretty full.
So.... does that sound normal or is it a sign of a problem? Any opinions would be appreciated.
Thanks!
