How to check if your freezer is working: you'll need a coin
Any equipment requires timely maintenance.
The freezer is no exception, regardless of whether we are talking about a freezer built into the refrigerator or a freestanding one.
Every owner of such a unit should defrost the freezer, and if this procedure is carried out from time to time, then its condition should be monitored on an ongoing basis.
This is the only way you can be sure that the products you leave in storage will not become unusable.
A simple coin will help you find out if everything is OK with your freezer – this is the trick that experienced housewives who have a complicated relationship with technology recommend using.
First, you will need to fill an ice cube tray with water and place it in the freezer.
When the ice freezes, place a coin of any denomination on top.
After some time, open the freezer door to check the condition of the coin. If it still lies on the surface, then everything is fine, but if the coin has fallen through, this means that the ice is gradually melting, which, in turn, signals problems with the equipment.
