Frequently asked questions
Why is my Sub-Zero refrigerator not cooling but the freezer works fine?+
Sub-Zero refrigerators use a dual-refrigeration system — separate compressors and evaporators for the fridge and freezer sides. This means one side can fail independently. Common causes on the refrigerator side include a failed condenser fan, restricted airflow in a tightly built-in cabinet, or a door seal letting warm air in continuously.
What does it mean if my Sub-Zero refrigerator is making a clicking or humming noise?+
Clicking often points to a compressor or start relay trying and failing to engage. Humming that's louder than usual can indicate a condenser fan working harder against restricted airflow. Either symptom is worth a diagnostic visit before the compressor takes further damage.
How long do Sub-Zero refrigerators typically last, and is repair worth it vs replacement?+
Sub-Zero units are built for a 20+ year service life, well beyond most appliances. For most sealed-system or component failures, repair costs a fraction of replacement and restores full factory performance — replacement usually only makes sense after major cabinet or structural damage.
Why is there condensation or sweating on my Sub-Zero refrigerator door?+
Condensation usually means the door seal isn't making full contact, letting humid room air meet the cold cabinet surface. It can also follow from a door left slightly ajar or a shifted decorative panel affecting alignment. A technician checks seal contact and door alignment first.
