Posted on Aug 29, 2007

Noise Problem We purchased the above-mentioned Danby Upright Freezer about 3 years ago and are very satisfied with it. However, for the past week or so, it has become very noisy. When we open the freezer door the noise is quite loud and when the door is closed it is still noisy most of the time but nowhere as noisy as when we open the door. What could be the reason for this noise? Is there anything we should or should not be doing? Hope to hear from you soon. Thank you in advance, Ab

I have a Danby DUF808WE upright freezer. It works for a while (days/weeks)then stops. If I wack it on the top it starts up again and runs again. What do you think the problem is?

In that model the Temperature Control often is the culprit.

When the freezer gets very cold it shuts off.
The because it is not running it gets warmer and will start to work again.

I would perhaps focus on the Temperature Control.

Why is the top of freezer frosting up

The door gasket is leaking around the top of the door. Air getting in past the gasket condenses in the freezer causing the ice build-up.

Danby upright freezer plugged in a few hours ago, but coils on back are hot

If you are talking about the black condenser coli on the back of the fridge it is hot because the refrigerant is pulling all of the heat out of the fridge and trying to deposit it outside of the box. This is called hot box pull down. When the temperature inside the fridge comes down and you have product in it the coil on the back will become much cooler during operation. So if you are wondering it is nothing to be worried about, perfectly normal.

The temperature alarm goes off randomly. It remained silent for 6-10 hours after I turned it on originally then started to sound. I shut the alarm off for 10-12 hours then turned it on again. Once more it...

If you just purchased the freezer 3 weeks ago, I would be calling the store and or the manufacturer, and have them send out a service man to fix it or replace it.
