      If your Dometic Refrigerator or freezer isn't getting cold enough, several factors could be at play. Improper installation might have caused an imbalance in the airflow around the refrigerator. The fan switch could be defective. Ensure the refrigerator level is within tolerance. A warped door could also be the cause.
