I did a good cleaning of the compressor area, vent, fan, coils, etc. It was pretty gross in there. Made sure everything is nice and tight. I noticed the sled the compressor assembly sits on was shifting forward from vibrations, so I drove a rubber washer and screw in front of it to hold it in place. I even replaced the evaporator fan in the ceiling of the interior, as it was making a lot of the vibration, but it didn’t make a difference. Unfortunately this fan runs permanently, and not just when the compressor kicks on. Not sure if there’s a way to re-wire otherwise. Definitely still loud, but I think that’s the best I’ll get. I am currently framing out an alcove around the fridge, as I am already re-tiling and drywalling the brew area it is going in. Bought some acoustic foam panels I’ll stick to the interior of the alcove. Looked up the spec sheet of this particular fridge and it looks like the only ventilation it needs is a few inches on the rear, so I think I’ll be ok with heat. I’ll monitor it and adjust as needed. I also didn’t take in to consideration that the compressor will kick on a lot more often when empty, as there is nothing to retain the cold temps.
