Hi I need some advice, our Brandt Apollo F/Freezer which is only 4 yrs old appx, has developed a fault. The air vents at the bottom of the freezer keep freezing up and filling with ice, when this happens the freezer stops working, all the food turns to mush, the whole of the bottom floor of the freezer is covered in ice.
I have attempted to defrost it on a number of occasions, it then works for a couple of weeks and then the same thing happens again. We have to keep clearing the ice from the bottom floor, during the time in between the appliance also makes loud cracking noises, as if large amounts of ice are breaking away??
Does any of this make sense, because I am at a loss as to what to do next?
Please help, at the moment I am sitting watching all our food defrost on the worktops again, while I attempt to clear the ice yet again!!
Thanks
Sam
