Tired of weird sounds every time you try
0:02
to get a glass of water? Don't worry,
0:04
you're not alone. First up, most noise
0:06
from your water dispenser isn't a big
0:08
deal. But if it's new, loud, or just
0:11
plain annoying. Here's what to check.
0:13
Start with the basics. Air in the water
0:16
line. This can happen after a filter
0:18
change or if the fridge was just
0:20
installed. Try running the dispenser for
0:22
a few minutes to clear out trapped air.
0:24
Hear a humming or vibrating sound? That
0:27
could mean your fridge isn't level.
0:29
Adjust the feet so it sits flat on the
0:32
floor. This helps stop vibrations that
0:34
travel through the dispenser. If you
0:36
hear clicking or popping, don't panic.
0:39
That's usually the ice maker cycling or
0:41
the plastic parts expanding with
0:43
temperature changes. Totally normal. A
0:46
grinding noise. Check if the water
0:48
filter is installed right. Remove and
0:50
reed it. Sometimes it just needs a
0:52
twist. And if you hear a buzzing only
0:55
when you press the lever, your water
0:57
supply might not be fully open. Make
1:00
sure the water valve behind the fridge
1:02
is turned all the way on. Still noisy?
1:05
If the sound's getting worse or water
1:07
flow is weak, it might be time to call
1:09
in a pro. Remember, a little noise is
1:12
normal, but now you know how to keep it
