Why is my Westinghouse WSE6100S so noisy?
- KKaren LeeAug 25, 2025
Modern Westinghouse refrigerators with increased storage capacity use high speed compressors, which can produce a seemingly high level of sound that is quite normal. Normal operational sounds include: * Occasional gurgling, similar to water boiling. * Air flow noise (air circulates because of a small fan). * A popping noise heard during automatic defrost. * A clicking noise heard just before the compressor starts. Other strange sounds may mean that you need to check if the cabinet is not level, the floor is uneven or weak, bottles are badly placed and rattling, there are vibrations, or the back of the refrigerator cabinet is touching the wall. It is normal for noise to seem louder just after the refrigerator starts operating.
