Everest Refrigeration ESFH2 Reach-In Freezer - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
STAY IN DEFROST MODE
Hello Santiago;
My name is Peter. I am a retired field service refrigeration technician.
In the defrost mode everything shuts down with the exception of the light.
So, lets trip the defrost timer and get your freezer running.
You did not provide a model number which is located on a label on the inside liner wall near the top.
Your defrost timer may be part of your control board.
Let's assume it is not.
In the lower back left hand corner of you unit the is a metal plate with a small slotted shaft. With a large flat head screw driver turn the shaft clockwise on click at a time until your unit starts up. You must do the same thing every 12 hours to turn it off for 30 minutes to allow for defrost until the timer is replaced is replaced.
Note the round on the left.
Go into the following web site, put in your model number. Select the diagram with the defrost timer. Search the internet with the part number shown

Everest freezer esf1 error 3
I think that code is a mechanical error code. Not sure. Call the mfr and see what they say. You can google the code and model number and perhaps get it there.

What should refrigerant gauges read when charging
Depends on what kind of refrigerant its works, if is an old unit probably is charged with R12 or R22 newer ones work with R404 ;for R12 presures should be around 20psi on the low side and 160 on the high side ,for R22 about 60 and 250 and for R404 50 and 350 ;you have to look at the condensing unit tag to find out what type of freon its uses ,or look at the expansion valve at the evaporator coil.

3-door undercounter refrigertor worktop surface
the coils that deliver the cold air are building up condensation. anything that gets cold in the outside should be insulated so as to reduce condensation. hope this helps

Tappan TFC13M0AW1 Chest Freezer. What part should I replace?
Question edited to add maker! All questions need 'make model (what it is) as first three words.
That is an overheating fault. Replace the fluff with no fluff.
Make sure the condenser coils are free of dust and there is good airflow
Or
It is low on refrigerant gas and you need a service tech..

I have a Traulsen 31300 6 half door freezer that cools down to 28F but won't go below.
If your Traulsen 31300 freezer is cooling down to 28°F but not going below that temperature, and the compressor runs continuously except during the defrost cycle, there are a few tests you can perform to help diagnose the issue before considering replacing the expansion valve. Here are some steps to follow:
1. Check Airflow: Ensure that the airflow inside the freezer is not obstructed by any items or ice buildup. Verify that the evaporator coil is clean and not blocked. Poor airflow can lead to inadequate cooling.
2. Temperature Control Setting: Confirm that the temperature control setting on the freezer is correctly set to the desired temperature. Make sure it is not accidentally set too high or too low.
3. Condenser Coil Cleaning: Clean the condenser coils located either at the back or underneath the unit. Dust and debris accumulation on the coils can reduce cooling efficiency. Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to remove any dirt or debris.
4. Condenser Fan Operation: Check if the condenser fan is running properly. The condenser fan helps dissipate heat from the system. Ensure it is spinning freely and not obstructed. If it's not working, it may need to be replaced.
5. Check for Refrigerant Leaks: Perform a thorough inspection of the refrigerant lines and connections for any signs of leaks, such as oil spots, bubbles, or hissing sounds. If a refrigerant leak is suspected, it could be affecting the cooling performance, and repairing the leak and recharging the system may be necessary.
6. Pressure and Temperature Readings: To determine if the expansion valve is the culprit, you may need to take pressure and temperature readings at different points in the refrigeration system using specialized equipment. These readings can help identify any irregularities or inefficiencies in the system.
7. Consult with a Professional: If you're unsure about performing these tests or interpreting the results, it is recommended to seek assistance from a professional refrigeration technician. They will have the expertise and necessary tools to accurately diagnose the issue and provide appropriate solutions.
By conducting these tests and inspections, you can gather more information to make an informed decision about replacing the expansion valve or pursuing other potential causes for the inadequate cooling.
