The fridge will still be cold even if the fan dies. Without the fan it
will be less efficient. I think when the fan is really important is when
the ambient is high.

Subject: Westy fridge fan, How Important Is It?




While on the subject of fridge fans,
I disconnected my fan last summer due to excessive noise. Recently
purchased a 120mm computer fan to use as a replacement but haven't got
around to installing it yet. Anyway, i have used my fridge quite a bit
this summer with the fan disconnected and haven't noticed any change in
the performance of my fridge. So.... Just how important is the fan
anyway?


Thanks!
