I recently moved into my very first apartment. It hasn’t gone flawlessly.
I initially requested that the maintenance people look at the fridge. It makes this indescribably annoying noise. You know that noise you can make by putting your tongue to the roof of your mouth, sucking slightly, and pulling the tongue off the roof of your mouth? Ok, same noise. Why would it do this?
The only thing I can come up with is that the defroster’s fan could be contacting ice or another fridge part or something along those lines. The fridge only makes the noise while running: must be a moving part I’d think. But, it doesn’t always make the noise while running.
The maintenance guy had no clue what it was and just suggested that I wait and see if it goes away. It hasn’t, so I complain.
When the guy shows up I’d like to be able to say “check such and such” and get this fixed.
