Modern Samsung NoFrost refrigerators have an innovative function - NoFrost, which prevents the appearance of icing. It is a positive point for consumers, because it does not require defrosting the refrigerator or freezer. However, despite the high efficiency of the system, it can also break down. So what is the problem with the appearance of icing in the refrigerator or freezer? We will discuss this problem in this article.
How does the NoFrost system work?
Thanks to the No Frost function, the refrigerator automatically defrosts, and there is no need for human intervention. The system itself calculates the period before defrosting, which occurs using special systems and mechanisms. Hidden defrosting is carried out using forced ventilation of the freezer and refrigerator compartment. A drip or weeping mode is installed in the central compartment. When damage occurs, the walls become covered with a small ice crust, not condensation.
Designation "NoFrost"
Important! According to the manufacturer, no ice or frost should form in the compartments. To do this, they introduced a special technology that removes moisture. In particular, for this purpose, the heat exchanger is inserted into a separate section located in the cavity between the walls. To enhance air movement, the refrigerator is equipped with a special fan heater.
As a result, liquid droplets remain in the heat exchanger, which has a lower temperature. As a result, the compartment walls are always completely clean. Frost formed on the evaporator is removed using a built-in defrost mode, the structure of which contains specialized heating elements. The closed-type section is very well insulated, therefore the internal heat remains almost unchanged. The moisture flows away through the drain channel, which is specially created for this purpose. That is why, the appearance of an ice crust in the freezers of Samsung No Frost refrigerators means an obvious breakdown that needs to be dealt with.
Freezing is a sign of breakdown
Need to know! In freezers and refrigerators equipped with the NoFrost mode, food quickly dries out, so food must be stored by first wrapping it in cellophane or placing it in a container designed for this purpose. In the freezing chamber, food products do not freeze together and are preserved in their original state.
Why does icing occur?
In Nofrost refrigeration devices, the occurrence of ice deposits is evidence of damage or failure in the mechanism located inside.
The probable causes of icing in refrigeration mechanisms and freezers with Nofrost mode may be the following:
- It is necessary to check the rubberized seal on the door. He probably moved away and that's why the door doesn't close very tightly.
- When ice appears in the Nofrost freezer, something may be clogged with something, or the channels leading water out of the heat exchanger may be broken, or some pipe has jumped out and moisture flows past it. The container collecting moisture is located, as usual, in the compartment with the motor. Evaporation of water from it occurs naturally. It is possible that when there is ice, the water does not flow out where it should, but pours into the freezer, where it freezes.
- When icing occurs in refrigerators with the No Frost function, the reason may be the combustion of heating elements on the heat exchanger. In such a situation, assistance from the service department is required.
- Freezing can also occur if the auto-defrost system is not functioning properly.
- Another reason for the appearance of ice in Samsung freezers is occasional power outages. Unfortunately, this is not uncommon in our country.
If ice often appears in the freezer compartment of your SamsungNofrost refrigerator, contact a repair service. If the warranty period has not yet expired, the refrigerator will be repaired free of charge.
How to defrost correctly?
In a compartment with an average temperature, snow should not appear on the evaporation lobe. In any situation, it is necessary to inspect the rubberized seal. Another likely reason is the storage of food in the compartment that has not yet cooled down.
When defrosting a chamber with a low operating temperature, you must do everything correctly:
- The refrigeration unit must be unplugged.
- If ice appears inside the freezer, under no circumstances should you scrape it off with a knife, forks or wooden sticks. The walls of the heat exchanger are thin, so they are easily damaged, and repairs are not cheap.
- To speed up the process, you can use a container of heated water, but in no case with boiling water. The container must be placed on a cloth or wooden board. You can use a fan or hair dryer, but be sure to turn off the heating function.
- If you don't want to break anything, allow the system to complete defrosting on its own. At the end of defrosting, you do not need to immediately return the food to the compartment - the refrigerator needs to function for about 30 minutes. This will allow it to return to normal operation. This is especially necessary in the summer.
If there are no problems, refrigerators with the No Frost function do not require manual defrosting. The heat exchanger thaws on its own, but when the function fails, this will become visible instantly, since the temperature increase will become quite noticeable.
Often, buyers began to pay attention to various modern technical properties in household appliances. The know frost function in refrigerators has been reproduced for many years. If you want to save personal time on defrosting, buying such a refrigerator will be the right choice. And if problems arise, many of them can be fixed independently.
Experienced housewives remember the times when refrigerators were not equippednofrostand from time to time it was necessary to defrost the unit. The event is long, labor-intensive and not the most pleasant. Therefore, if you suddenly find that your refrigerator has decided to go back to ancient times and is freezing the “fur coat” in the freezer, you should not leave things to chance.
If you notice increased ice formation in your freezer, first of all, check whether the freezer closes tightly. You may have simply "stuffed" it so much that the door does not fit properly and warm air is entering the chamber. Everything is fine? Then the next step is to check the settings. A “fur coat” can form in the freezer if:
- Super freeze mode is enabled. In some refrigerator models, it does not turn off automatically - you need to turn it off manually.
- The temperature is set to very low. This could have happened by accident - the thermostat was touched or the family members “helped”. Or you were afraid that the kitchen was too hot and decided to play it safe this way. Remember: the optimal temperature in the freezer is - 19 ... - 17 ° C. Even if the room is hot, there is no need to choose a cooler mode: a working refrigerator always maintains the set temperature, regardless of the ambient temperature!
The modes are also in order, but is there snow and ice in the freezer? In this case, unfortunately, we have to talk about a malfunction.
The most common reasons why ice forms in the freezer
A lot of ice in the freezer, as a rule, encourages housewives to defrost the unit. Unfortunately, this does not always help. And if after a day or two the freezer is again covered with snow and ice, we are definitely talking about a breakdown. The table below describes the most common breakdowns that cause increased ice formation in the freezer.
|
Symptom of malfunction |
Possible cause |
Repair cost * |
|
In a no frost refrigerator, ice and snow accumulate at the bottom of the freezer. Perhaps there is water under the boxes. |
The freezer drain hole is clogged. Normally, the freezer is “cleaned” of ice at least once a day: the defrosting heating element is turned on, the ice turns into water and flows down the drainage channel. If the drainage hole is clogged, the water has nowhere to “go”; it accumulates under the drawers and freezes in a thick layer of ice. It is necessary to clean the drainage hole: for example, rinse it with warm water from a syringe. However, not all refrigerator models have easy access to the drain; you may need to unscrew the back panel of the freezer. If you are not sure that you know how to do this, it is better to seek help from a specialist. |
On one's own |
|
The back wall of the freezer is covered with a thick layer of ice and snow, while the temperature inside the freezer compartment is higher than the set one, and the unit’s motor runs almost without turning off. The more snow builds up, the higher the temperature, and the less often the compressor turns off. |
The defrost system has failed, which is responsible for “cleansing” the freezer of ice. A breakdown of the defrost timer, evaporator heating element, defroster, fuse or other component of the “cleaning” system does not allow the refrigerator to start the defrost cycle, and the evaporator becomes “overgrown” with fur coats. As a result, the cooling capacity of the unit decreases, and the temperature in the freezer gradually increases. The motor-compressor tries to compensate for the lack of cooling capacity by constant operation and rarely turns off. In full No Frost models, the cold air supply channel to the refrigerator compartment freezes, and it stops cooling. It is necessary to diagnose the defrost system, identify the failed unit and replace it. |
from 2900 to 8000 rub. Depending on the number of failed units in the defrost module |
|
The refrigerator rarely turns off. The walls of the freezer are evenly “overgrown” with snow and ice. If in the refrigerator the temperature in the chambers is regulated independently, only the freezer compartment will freeze (for example, in a two-compressor unit). If the design of the refrigerator involves one thermostat located in the evaporator, then the refrigerator compartment will also freeze - you will see ice on the back wall. |
Most likely, The temperature sensor has failed. As a result, the refrigerator control module receives incorrect information about the temperature in the freezer and, based on this data, “gives” the command to the motor to freeze more than necessary. The faulty temperature sensor needs to be replaced. |
from 1900 to 3900 rub. |
|
Snow and ice are uneven, b O Larger “growths” are located closer to the freezer door. The temperature in the freezer compartment has increased. The alarm indicator on the unit control panel lights up or flashes. Electronic refrigerator models may beep and indicate a problem with an error on the screen. |
More likely The rubber door seal is worn or torn. Because of this, the seal of the freezer is broken. Warm air enters the freezer and you can see the ice located closer to the door. The seal needs to be replaced. |
from 2500 to 7000 rub. |
|
There could also be imbalance of the freezer door fastening system. The freezer door is hinged. In the case when the door fastenings “loose” and “sag,” the tightness of the door is broken and warm air enters the chamber. In this case, you will see more ice near the refrigerator door. It is necessary to balance the fasteners or replace them. |
from 1900 to 4500 rub. |
|
|
Heavy, uneven frost is visible in the area of the freezer evaporator. The refrigerator motor does not turn off. The freezer temperature is higher than the set value. The alarm indicator on the refrigerator control panel may light up or flash. Electronic models may beep. Once the refrigerator is completely defrosted, the freezer or refrigerator generally stops working at all. |
In rare cases, the freezer evaporator may experience freon leak. As a result, the cooling capacity of the unit drops, the refrigerator compressor initially works without turning off, and freezes a large layer of ice at the leak point on the evaporator and in the freezer. After all the freon has evaporated from the system, the freezer compartment or both chambers will stop working. The evaporator needs to be repaired or replaced and the system needs to be recharged with refrigerant. |
from 3500 to 6500 rub. leak in sealed part – from 8000 rub. |

If you find snow and ice in the freezer of your refrigerator, please do not delay in contacting a repair shop. This is not only “inconvenient”, but also indicates that some kind of breakdown has occurred in the refrigerator. If you do not fix it promptly, there is a high probability of more complex, and therefore more expensive, faults to fix.

Refrigerators that need to be manually defrosted and washed monthly are a thing of the past. Modern models are equipped with an automatic defrosting system, which performs its functions unnoticed by the owners. True, manufacturers still recommend defrosting the refrigerator manually 1-2 times a year for preventive purposes. And yet, with automatic defrosting technology, this preventive procedure will not resemble conquering an icy mountain peak - the refrigerator parts are covered with only a slight coating of frost.
The most common automatic defrosting technologies are drip (crying) and wind, which are called No Frost. The drip defrosting system is most often found in modern refrigerators. Its essence is as follows. An evaporator is installed on the back wall of the refrigerator compartment (drip technology is not used for freezers). Usually it is hidden inside the wall itself, since the products should not come into contact with the evaporator - this impairs its operation. In this case, water may not flow into a special container, but to the bottom of the chamber. In addition, an “open” evaporator can be accidentally damaged. The evaporator maintains a low temperature of the rear wall, due to which water vapor condenses on it and ice forms. This does not happen with other walls. At the end of the refrigeration cycle, when the compressor stops, the evaporator heats up. The ice that has accumulated on it thaws, and the water flows into a special container along the grooves. When the compressor starts running again, the water in the tank heats up and evaporates. The process starts over again with a new cooling cycle.
In refrigerators with a No Frost system, the evaporator is installed behind the back wall of the refrigerator compartment or above the freezer compartment. It is equipped with fans that circulate air inside the refrigerator. The evaporator, as in a refrigerator with a drip system, ensures a low rear wall temperature. When the compressor stops, the frost thaws and evaporates.
So what are the advantages and disadvantages of No Frost? Many people believe that due to the blowing system in refrigerators with a No Frost system, food dries out faster. From a theoretical point of view this may be true, but in practice there is not much difference. In different models of refrigerators with a drip system and No Frost, food remains fresh for different times, but the No Frost technology does not have a strong influence on this.
There is an opinion that refrigerators with a No Frost automatic defrosting system do not need to be defrosted manually at all. But this, again, is incorrect. Refrigerators with both drip and wind systems should be defrosted once or twice a year.
The main feature of the No Frost system, which is called its main advantage, is the uniform air temperature inside the refrigerator. The temperature difference on the top and bottom shelves of the refrigerator does not exceed two degrees Celsius. For comparison: in refrigerators with a drip system, the difference can reach five to six degrees. And in freezers not equipped with No Frost - up to nine degrees. Temperature uniformity ensures better food preservation.
Another important advantage of No Frost is that the system works in both refrigerators and freezers, while the drip system can only work in refrigerators.
The ventilation system allows the refrigerator to quickly restore temperature after the door is opened. However, this is not too noticeable - the power of the refrigerator plays an incomparably important role here.
Among the disadvantages of No Frost is the relatively high noise level during operation. Fans provide additional noise. However, some models of refrigerators with the No Frost system are equipped with very quiet fans, which makes them much quieter than some of their drip “brothers”.
A rather important disadvantage of No Frost is that the bulky evaporator mechanism “eats” the volume of the refrigerating chamber. As a result, similar refrigerators with a drip defrosting system are noticeably more spacious.
A refrigerator with a No Frost system, all other things being equal, consumes more electricity than a refrigerator with a crying defrosting system. The difference in electricity bills will be small, but for those who are used to saving wherever possible, this is still a disadvantage.
Refrigerators with a drip system and No Frost also differ in price. A refrigerator with windy defrosting technology will cost slightly more than a similar model with “crying” technology. However, this difference is also not very significant.
In general, the advantages and disadvantages of the No Frost system (compared to the common drip system) practically balance each other. Therefore, an automatic defrosting system is usually not a decisive criterion when choosing a refrigerator. But the advantages and disadvantages of different systems are still worth taking into account.
Great work by the craftsmen! I received practically answers to all the questions I was interested in; incl. and with clarifications. RESPECT!

Good evening! Thanks to your technician for repairing my washing machine. It was working very loudly and rattling (Yesterday the technician came and changed the motor, now there is silence in the apartment
02/18/2017 Ekaterina
There is a lot of enticement on the site - it says refrigerant filling from 2000 to 4500, in the end they took 6200. And the warranty is 4 months instead of 2 years. A 10% discount for pensioners - ONLY for work, which turns out to be miserable. In general, it ends up being much more expensive than expected. Be careful! I don’t yet know how long the refrigerator will work after repair...
02/16/2017 Client
They clarified my problem with the washing machine politely and in detail (when accepting the application) and said that the technician would call me back. After a short period of time (I didn’t even expect that the master would call back so quickly), the master called. The master found out in detail all the problems of the washing machine. An appointment was made for the master to visit. He arrived at the agreed time. carefully fixed it. I'm happy with the renovation. received advice on further operation of the washing machine.

The washing machine broke down, I called a repairman (I don’t know his name), he very conscientiously made a diagnosis and honestly told me the cost of repairs and the consequences after the repair, because... the machine was old, then pay a little extra and you can buy a new one. I tried to repair it, soldered something, turned it on, and it burned out. All repairs and diagnostics 400 rub. In another service they would have charged me at least 9,000. Thank you for your conscientiousness and decency. Now I am happy with my new washing machine without the unnecessary costs of repairs.
07/28/2016 Oksana
Yesterday I made an application for repair of a washing machine in Zelenograd. A girl called. I asked what brand of car it was, what the problem was and said to wait for the repairman to call. When the repairman called back, he said that they didn’t have spare parts and he couldn’t repair the car. I just can’t understand how you can make a diagnosis over the phone?
07/08/2016 Valentina
Thanks to master Eduard for repairing the washing machine. He did everything quickly and carefully. I liked the service.
07/08/2016 Irina
Thanks to master Leonid (Lobnya) for the high-quality repair of a washing machine with 12 years of experience. Despite the difficulties that arose due to the installation location of the washing machine (at a height of more than a meter above the floor on a special structure), the master coped with the job professionally. The machine is working again, hooray! I would also like to note the efficiency of the work of the master and the employees of the department for accepting applications - the application was left at 16:00 on a day off, and within half an hour the master was already with us. Another hour later the work was ready. In the future, if my household appliances break down, I will also contact BytTechRem. Thank you for your work!
06/11/2016 Anastasia
I left an application at 9 pm, after sending the message “Your application has been sent. A manager will contact you within 15 minutes.” I waited for a call for 40 minutes, then called myself. It turned out that it was not the manager who would call, but the foreman, and not in 15 minutes, but during his working hours - from 9 to 18. It’s not good to somehow promise 15 minutes and not deliver...
06/10/2016 Vladimir
The refrigerator, born in 1995, broke down... Master Alexander arrived and fixed everything very quickly! Thank you for your prompt arrival and quality repairs!

Many thanks to BytTekhRem for repairing my washing machine. I left a request online late yesterday, but today it was already fixed. Thank you!
04/26/2016 Inna
Your service is lame and, as I understand it, you are not interested in orders. On 04/16/2016, late in the evening/at night, I left a request on the website with a fairly detailed and comprehensive description of the problem, wasting my time. On Sun early in the morning, around 9, the master called and said: “I only have “Refrigerator Repair” in my SMS, what happened?” I have a question for those at BytTekhRem who are really interested in orders: 1). Why is there a field for describing the problem in the application on the website if this information is not conveyed to the master? 2). Why should I, half asleep, remember the specifics of the order and repeat the same thing? The master did not want to find out all this information from those of your services that sent the SMS, and said goodbye with the words “Then I can’t help.”
04/20/2016 Vadim
Many thanks to master Anatoly for the prompt and high-quality repair of my refrigerator, as well as for a lot of useful advice and information. In case of any problems with household appliances, I will contact BytTechRem, including this wonderful technician.

Thank you for the article. I've been scratching my head about why the dishwasher won't drain. I messed with the pump - it works. The drain hose is clean. It turned out that the drain hose was clogged inside the machine!!! Hurray, I'm back with clean dishes and a happy wife!!!

I would like to thank the specialists of BytTekhRem for the prompt response and online consultation on the breakdown of the PMM! To be honest, when I asked for a consultation, I thought that they would start scamming me for expensive repairs, but in the end I got away with a succinct online response that helped in curing PMM. Thank you!

Good afternoon. I would like to express my gratitude to the master named Yuri. Repaired Electrolux refrigerator. Receipt number 102116. I was able to fix our refrigerator, although they had previously called a repairman and he diagnosed it at a landfill. Thank you.
Let me start with the fact that nothing appears out of nowhere or disappears anywhere. Ice at the bottom of the freezer compartment of the Samsung No Frost refrigerator appears due to the fact that the melted condensate simply has nowhere to go. In general, the following happens: the water drainage channel, which goes from under the freezer evaporator to the container on the motor, becomes clogged. Many people think that this channel is clogged with some kind of muck, that is, due to the ingress of some kind of debris. Yes, indeed, all kinds of herbs are stored in the freezer, such as parsley, dill and the like. Of course, the leaves can get into the channel through which condensation flows, but from experience I can say that this happens extremely rarely. Believe me, the condensate drain channel is clogged with debris in 10% of cases out of 100; in most cases, the culprit for this behavior of the refrigerator is freezing of the drain tube. In the video below I showed how a flexible heating element for additional defrosting is installed. You definitely need to watch this video, then we will analyze the cases and questions of consumers of this equipment regarding this disease
Watch the video why ice accumulates at the bottom of the freezer in the No Frost refrigerator
Let's return to the video and consider some of the nuances that are associated with the installation of a flexible heating element. For the first time this video was posted on YouTube, and now it’s time to explain it on my website, this video was shot by me personally, so I understand very well what I’m talking about. First, let's see how additional defrosting works and why it is needed. From the video above, you should have learned that the refrigerant suction tube from the evaporator passes in close proximity to the water drain tube, as a result, gradual icing of the condensate drain tube occurs. This is the main reason why ice appears in the freezer. Next we will consider the question that interests us most, that is, we will talk about the parameters and where to connect the contacts of our additional heating element
- Heating element power→ Can be used from 30 to 80 watts. The most important thing here is that it does not melt the plastic, that is, the drain tube. Take the heating element and connect it to electricity, if you can hold it in your hands when it is turned on, then it is quite suitable for defrosting
- Flexible heating element length→ Completely depends on the model of your refrigerator and the location of the freezer. If the chamber is located at the top, then its length will be noticeably longer, since the heating element must be stretched along the entire drain tube. In general, take some long single flexible wire and try to install it in the same way as the additional defrost will be installed. This way you will get the exact length. There is no need to buy end-to-end, it is better to let it be half a meter longer, the extra ones can be placed at the bottom of the freezer evaporator
- Where to connect→ This heating element must be turned on together with the main defrost. This means that you need to solder the ends of the additional defrost to the contacts of the main defrost
Well, that’s basically all, as you can see, there is nothing complicated, the heating element itself can be bought in almost any specialized online store, the main thing is to know which one to buy. When you buy, choose one that will fit into a hole with a diameter of no more than 1 centimeter. Next I will answer some questions that are being asked in my workshop about this. I think thanks to my answers, you will be able to understand whether you need to carry out this procedure
I have a Samsung refrigerator with the No Frost system, after I bought it, about three years later, this crap started. In general, water constantly accumulates in the freezer, or rather, water first appears, and then it freezes. We have to defrost the refrigerator every month, although we used to do it once every two years. In general, to prevent food from spoiling, we pull out the bottom drawer and pick out the ice from the bottom of the freezer. Several repairmen were called, they shrugged their shoulders and each time changed the defrost sensor and cleaned the water drain pipe from the freezer evaporator. This helps for a while, but then we notice the appearance of ice again
If you changed the defrost sensor and also cleaned the condensate drain channel and the result remained the same, then you need to install an additional heating element, you can see how to do this in the video above. Cleaning the channel and replacing the defrost sensor is unlikely to help you
Recently my Samsung refrigerator has started acting up, the problem is that water has started dripping from the top of the refrigerator. The freezer freezes perfectly, but recently we saw ice at the bottom of the freezer. The fact is that we haven’t defrosted it for a long time, and closer to summer we decided that we needed to prepare the refrigerator for harvesting berries. We started pulling out food and it froze to the bottom of the freezer. We defrosted the refrigerator for 3 days, then turned it on. After 3 weeks, ice was again found at the bottom of the freezer, and in the refrigerator compartment, water began to drip from above again. The master changed the defrost sensor, as well as the clock mechanism, but things are still there. As before, water is dripping from the top of the refrigerator compartment, and there is ice in the freezer
A classic case for a Samsung No Frost refrigerator with a top freezer compartment. Try cleaning the water drain channel again. It is quite possible that there is something sitting there; this happens quite often in such refrigerators. If this does not help, install a flexible heating element, that is, additional defrosting. I think that the defrost sensor and timer have nothing to do with it at all, most likely we are talking about freezing of the drain tube or its clogging with debris
Once a month I cleaned the drain pipe in the freezer, now the situation has worsened because the spiral of the main heating element has become covered, it does not ring at all and frost is freezing on the evaporator. This heating element is not sold separately in online stores, only assembled with the radiator itself. I watched your video and understood the principle of the system. I have a question: is it possible to use such a flexible heating element as the main one, that is, wrap it around the evaporator and put it in the drain tube. It seems to me, what difference does it make what this radiator will heat?
The difference is big, the fact is that the main heating element is in an aluminum casing and stands on the evaporator itself, thanks to this heat exchange occurs; if you install a flexible heating element, then there will be no such heat exchange and it is quite possible that ice will freeze on the freezer in the future. If you cannot find the original, you can install a universal one. You can see it in the photo below
Photo of glass defrost element for No Frost refrigerators
It is very important here that it fits properly, and the rest, as you put it, the evaporator doesn’t care about heating it. Don't forget about the additional heater, it also needs to be installed. If the drain channel in your refrigerator froze, it will continue to happen again in the future, so it’s better to be on the safe side. When you buy a glass heating element, be sure to find out the dimensions and measure the length of the evaporator, since it is under the evaporator that you will need to install it
