What this line is
The WH line is one of the Alpicool refrigerator families, and this page routes it. The WH line covers three models, listed in the table below, and they share a platform.
What owners of this line report
- Ice that is not being made — An empty bin, or cubes that never complete. See: Alpicool WH Refrigerator: Ice Maker Fault. — Slug: alpicool-alpicool-refrigerator-wh-refrigerator-ice-production — Title: Alpicool WH Refrigerator: Ice Maker Fault
- Runs but will not get or stay cold — The compressor runs and the cabinet never comes down. See: Alpicool WH Refrigerator: Not Cooling or Not Freezing. — Slug: alpicool-alpicool-refrigerator-wh-refrigerator-cooling-failure — Title: Alpicool WH Refrigerator: Not Cooling or Not Freezing
- Water inside the cabinet or on the floor — A puddle at the door line, or standing water in the channel. See: Alpicool WH Refrigerator: Water Leak. — Slug: alpicool-alpicool-refrigerator-wh-refrigerator-water-leak — Title: Alpicool WH Refrigerator: Water Leak
- A new noise or a vibration — A knock at each start, or a rattle within a run. See: Alpicool WH Refrigerator: Abnormal Noise or Vibration. — Slug: alpicool-alpicool-refrigerator-wh-refrigerator-abnormal-noise — Title: Alpicool WH Refrigerator: Abnormal Noise or Vibration
Problem classes in order on this line
- Ice that is not being made — Leading class here: it travels with a warm room, a heavy load or frost.
- Runs but will not get or stay cold — Second: a boxed-in condenser produces it long before a compressor does.
- Water inside the cabinet or on the floor — Third: one small outlet carries everything the plate sheds.
- A new noise or a vibration — Fourth: noise follows moves and reloads rather than wear.

Safety first
Safety
Unplug the appliance or switch off its breaker before removing any panel: a capacitor can hold a charge after the power is off. Never open pipework or work on the sealed system.
The line between a fix and a call
Setting, load, clearance and defrosting are owner work. The same rule holds for every class above: what is reachable without a panel is owner work, and what is behind one is not.
