You’re expecting everyone to come over for a big get-together. So, you head out to the grocery store, stock up and then return home to fill the Maytag® refrigerator with party supplies. Several hours later, you notice that the interior of the fridge seems warmer than normal. Consequently, you start fretting over whether or not it’s time to call our Maytag appliance repair team in El Paso.
We are always here when our customers’ Maytag appliances need emergency repair. However, the increase in your refrigerator’s internal temperature may not be a cause for immediate concern. Oftentimes, a Maytag refrigerator’s internal temperature will rise automatically when the interior is packed with food. It generally happens because the appliance is trying to compensate for both the new food and the hot air that may have entered the interior while the fridge was being stocked.
When it does happen, keep the United States Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Service’s temperature guidelines in mind. They traditionally recommend that a fridge’s interior temperature stay below 41 degrees Fahrenheit. Anything above that is generally considered unsafe. So in other words, it is imperative that no matter how many party foods and beverages are in the fridge, the temperature remains at a safe level.
With that said, we’d suggest adjusting the Maytag refrigerator’s temperature setting and ensuring that there is enough air circulation going on inside of the unit. Afterward, give the fridge some time to readjust itself. If you still feel that the interior is too warm, by all means schedule a service call with us. We’ll come out to make sure that there is nothing wrong with the Maytag refrigerator’s internal components.
