You may hear that freezers last about 20 years. The reality is that regardless of whether you have a self-defrosting and a manual defrost freezer, your appliance will last between ten to 14 years.

Most freezers are defrosted manually, which requires 40% less electricity than the no-frost models. Some upright freezers have the no-frost system. Chest and compact freezers are manually defrosted. The manual defrost freezers are better at holding the temperature at one level for large amounts of food.

Glass Block is a non-load bearing material. Provisions (i.e., lintels) at the head should be provided to accommodate the support of loads above the glass block panel (similar to doors and windows).

If you have a frost free fridge freezer and are hearing whirring or scraping noises, this usually indicates a build up of ice around one of the fans. If this is the case, you'll also notice your fridge isn't as cool as it ought to be. You could have a faulty fan motor.

Frost free refrigeration refers to refrigerator units such as fridges and freezers that have built in technology to prevent the build-up of ice, by automatically defrosting itself after a set amount of time.

Built-in timing mechanisms shut off the cold air compressor and turn on a small heater to melt the ice crystals. Once clear of frost, the freezer turns off the heater so the cold air can keep your food items stored at a safe temperature.
