If you mean, why does my fridge freeze things? It means that it is set a temperature that is too cold. Set it about 6-7 degrees above freezing. You should have a thermostat to use.

It could also be affected by the setting in your actual freezer. Especially if you have a two or three door model with the freezer at the bottom of the unit. Check to see what your freezer setting is. It should be able to be dialed from "Warmer", "Colder" and "Coldest" settings. The last two settings are so cold they may affect the fridge temp as well as the freezer.

What would cause a fridge to have water in the bottom that freezes?

Well, either your temperatures are inconsistent, often melting things and refreezing them; the other possibility is that if you have a fridge with a conjoined water dispenser, then that is leaking and pooling at the bottom to freeze.


Why does food in refrigerators freeze?

If food in your fridge ends up frozen, you have the temperature set too cold.


What is the normal refrigerator temperature?

Refrigerators help to keep foods fresher for longer. It is important to keep the fridge cold, but not too cold, so that things begin to freeze. The normal temperature should be somewhere between 35 and 38 degrees F depending on your preference.


Why is your two door fridge part sometimes freezing up milk etc when the temperature is set at 3 or 4 degrees?

i think that yr thermostat is broken, the fridge is way cooler than you think! put a sub zero c thermometer in the fridge all h2o will freeze at 0 degrees c unless you put salt in it. what does salt do to stop it freezing?! good luck with yr fridge!


Why is temperature controlled in refrigerators?

simply to keep food fresh. If the fridge's temp is too high, food will warm to room temperature and go off faster. Too cold, then the food will freeze! Everytime you open the fridge door you are letting room temperature air inside, increasing the temperature of the air inside the fridge, therefore the fridge (if automatic) will measure the temperature and make the air to the right temperature.
