Hello everybody,

Re: Refrigerator candy
Are you using this machine in a storage area/garage which is unheated?
Stat details here..

If it is outside try rewiring the door switch to keep the internal light switched on. This will generate a small amount of heat and keep a load on the thermostat.Brian - Newton Abbot, Devon, UK

Re: Refrigerator candy
Thanks for the replies,this candy is fridge and freezer compination and my client uses it in a garagge. If a change the stat it will work? And which stat do you think might work? You think that the inside lamp is enough to work at cold enviroment?
Thanks again.

Re: Refrigerator candy
if you fit a coolder stat the fridge will get to cold and start freezing the fridge the only long winded way around it is to fit a stat to the freezer and not use the fridge like brian suggested you could lock in the fridge bulb to give some heat but one day it will fail the real options is to make room warmer/ find a twin comp model or fit a freezer stat in freezer the ambient does not effect the performance much of domestic it requires a min 12dc so heat goes in fridge when you open the door and makes stat run
