We bought the house in 2008 Frestech refrigerator, 2 door, 179L, when the price is 1700 yuan. It's been four and a half years now. The refrigerator is broken. The refrigeration began to heat up in three hours, and the meat in the freezer became soft and soft. Call the customer service, please master home repair, the master told us that the cooling pipe corrosion leak, to add 450 yuan for copper pipe. Also said that after 2008 refrigerators produced, the basic cooling tube is iron or aluminum, in order to control costs. After the bad, you have to pay additional money to buy a new refrigerator, so as to update. Otherwise, like the previous refrigerator is copper tube, 20 years are not bad, manufacturers are unable to survive. Alas, are manufacturers today so black hearted?
The refrigerator before 2000 there are many brands with a brass, later because of technological progress, aluminum air tightness and thermal conductivity reached the requirements of the refrigerator, and the copper price is very low, tens of thousands of dollars a ton of aluminum barrel, only thousands of dollars a ton, so now is to do with the refrigerator evaporator tubes, pipes do condenser.The corrosion resistance of aluminum tubes is indeed much worse than that of copper tubes. Many of the refrigerators that have been leaking have been used for 3-6 years and corroded.
Frestech refrigerator belongs to the second tier brands, with the greatest likelihood of iron pipe.At present, the domestic refrigerators are basically aluminum alloy tubes or iron pipes, the main reason is to reduce costs. In addition, the current refrigerant does not have any corrosive, and iron pipe is entirely possible.However, the exposed section, that is, the section of the compressor links, or copper tube, because it leaks in the air, the cold pipe will condense the moisture in the air, forming water droplets, if the iron pipe, it will rust easily. The main pipe is insulated by the insulation layer and is not in contact with the air. Therefore, the water pipe can not be collected, and the iron pipe is feasible.
My refrigerator is 08 years to buy, then spent 2899, the day before yesterday found not refrigeration. The meat stinks. The estimate is bad for several days... Call the maintenance master today to find the cooling pipe or change the compressor.. The price of the refrigerator pipe is the same as yours 450.. Compressor used 100.. Collapsed!!
