Okay, problem here. This water-leaking/dripping sound from inside the fridge is unbearable. The sound is coming from the freezer section. I wanted to update this for those looking for a solution in a similiar case. I have covered my fridge with sound-insulation foam as follows: Entire top 50% of bo...

Maria, Are you seriously wondering why people would judge you when you proudly post pictures of your efforts to abuse a product, and then still fraudulently use the warrantee that you have just voided, and make statements ridiculing the beliefs of others, then trying in the same message to play inn...

Sorry, but if you voice your opinion, prepare to be judged. It's a not a right that needs to be granted. That said I'd still prefer, if people kept their "judgements" to themselves. It keeps everyone happier (especially mods). Sorry no, the topic title reads: SILENT FRIDGE. Like I said, i came here...

I didn't understand why a person needs to do a 911 call in the middle of cinema or restaurant? Where do you live? Seriously. Some country in Middle East. I don't understand how location is relevant though. We do not have cinemas with upside down screens or seats on the walls. I don't understand why...

Furthermore, many establishments already have this sort of signal blockage rightfully in place. What about the 911 guys in these places? What do they do? If it is illegal, how is this already in place? I don't know if illegal or legal in where i live. But some cinemas, concert halls, etc. do have t...

I think looser gun control can solve this problem. Criminals are intimidated when public is not afraid to own and use guns, correct? I think guns should be banned altogether, but that is another topic. I swear, in my life there have been many moments where i could have shot someone in a moment's ra...

Lets say you want to set off a bomb. Most bombs are detonated through cellular signal. With a jammer, you would be making everyone a favor by effectively blocking the bomb as well if you are already that close. You think if you have a small jammer in a resturaunt that won't effect other people in t...

It's all good until someone can't call 911 for an emergency. Moot argument. I didn't understand why a person needs to do a 911 call in the middle of cinema or restaurant? There are plenty of people around to help in the first place... It is easier to shout for help or raise your hands/arms/legs wha...

There is, it's called "asking someone to tone it down". If they don't, you have a different problem, and that's one of an inconsiderate asshole - cell phone or not. This doesnt work. People this inconsiderate are usually the ones that you cannot talk to tone down in the first place. If you encounte...

It's already required. People don't obey. So then should the police shoot out the tires of everyone exceeding the speed limit? Police have already their own mechanisms in place -- like giving speeding tickets. If you exceed the speeding limit, you risk parting with your money, therefore you would b...

Water has a MUCH higher heat capacity than air. So putting a bunch of water bottles in the fridge and freezer (leave the tops open in the freezer so the bottles don't break when it turns to ice) will help keep them cold with less energy (and less frequent compressor cycles). I don't know if anyone ...

Considering you don't give a "rat's bottom" about anything but yourself, why should anyone care about you and your petty problems? Like I mentioned, I am not here to be judged for my personal preferences or beliefs or the circumstances causing any of those. This is nobody's business. I came here wi...

God knows these are tempting to use, but don't- you have a decent chance at blocking an emergency communication or interfering with public transportation. I doubt that. We need the ones with the shortest range. Radius is listed as 5 meters -- meaning that the persons affected will be in the vicinit...

But just because some people are inconsiderate, doesn't mean jamming all phone signals is a good idea. That exactly is a very good idea. Why to be inconvenienced by the inconsiderate? Why to leave it to somebody else? The probability of a life-saving doctor being in a cinema is an impossibility (an...

Wow....sounds like a commercial for a cell-phone company. I'll make a bet with anyone that stupid cell phone usage, by dumb people, has killed more far people than cell phones have ever saved. We were all better off without the things.....IMHO. Well said, last time i used a cell phone was in 1997 i...

Sounds a bit like freezing water actually! (you know, the sound water makes when you pour it on frozen metal and it suddenly freezes, a series of little cracking and popping sounds, bit like hissing) Yes, that is pretty much what the sound is like. It is not about every day... It is almost between ...

Would say it's coolant running in the elements' pipes. I rarely hear my fridge make the sound, but larger ones with two fridge sections and a freezer seem to make it an awful lot. Probably because the cooling need is greater, and more 'transformation' happens with the coolant(it's the liquid-gas-li...

Why would anyone like to pollute ? Green and quiet are definitely not opposite goals. I totally disrespect that kind of values, even though I am no greenpeace hippie.

I have a microwave on top of the fridge which effectively covers 90% of the surface area. Microwave sits on top of the insulation foam, meaning that top of the fridge has no contact with air. With or without any air circulation around the fridge, the top is never warm. With full insulation around th...

Okay, problem here. This water-leaking/dripping sound from inside the fridge is unbearable. The sound is coming from the freezer section. Setting the freezer to 1 or 5 or 9...

I think it is normal. It's probably just condensation water coming out of the fridge. The water usually ends up in a container near the radiator where the radiators heat will cause it to dissipate into air. Thank you, that is right. You seem happy with your solutions and it probably is the only sol...

I'm pretty happy, not because it's totally silent, but because it feels like the compressor never goes on. My 180 lts LG fridge was like this too for the first few years. I barely noticed it, also i think its compressor engaged only once or twice a day. Therefore I did not find it necessary to do a...

Unplug and cover the wires. Probably lose some functionality, but doubt the fridge would cease to operate. Prepare to defrost manually every three months.
