Dometic Fridge

Oh and one other thing.. "Water freezes at 32 degress"
If it is distilled and it is at exactly 1 atmosphere pressure.

Higher pressure lower freezing point
Lower pressure higher
Impureturies (IE: Dissolved minerals) lower the freezing point

Science class. Chemistry 101. (College) and more.

THe difference however may be too mall for non-lab hardware to measure.

And in case you are wondering
Boiling point is also affected by pressure and purity Higher pressure HIGHER boiling point.. impurities are a mixed lot.

Thanks for the info Doug.

I do a lot of research before posting but sometimes I am basing it on an old memory of research done 10 years or more ago Hence the line "I believe"

I think you will find. if you choose to be honest I am right more than wrong. Though I will admit that some issues may have more than one possible cause and thus more than one possible right answer. On those sometimes I get the right answer and sometimes someone else does. This does not mean either answer is wrong. Now I suspect you are confused... So be it. I'm not.

I appreciate your posts and I listen to those that can make a point without having to resort to an attack and rudeness.

I have seen a proper install... MINE is properly installed.. I added fans both inside and out. Need a better inside fan though (Will get one later).. I'm a long way from a decent parts place now).

I do not have a LAT switch but I have jumper wires :) ANd knwo how to make one

ON and the ice maker is 20 degrees not `10.. Ice cream comes in two types one the colder it gets the harder and I mean HARDER it gets

The other can go down to several degrees below Zero and still be fairly soft. Depends in part on how much sugar in the mix

Source Jack Harkenss AKA Henry of Henry's Ice Cream (now closed) in Battle Creek. MI. Jack started as the "Jack of many trades" Curb hop when they had curb service. Bicycle delivery boy pedalling Henry's ice cream all over the neighborhood.. Saved is tips and when Henry retired... bought the business.. Right up till closing though Jack was still the delivery boy.. Delivering by pick up truck and Greyhound bus express to all over the USA.

Yes I spent a lot of time there enjoying ice cream.

You are a pain! The actual temp for icemaker harvest is 14 degrees, but industry standard is 10 degrees or lower. You post SO MUCH nonsense, on ALL issues. Just stick to what you know which is really nothing. Doug

You have posted almost 53,000 postings in 12 years and I will bet less than 100 are factual correct info.

HOW do you think an Icemaker KNOWS when to harvest the ice??????? It has a Mold temp sensor and THAT sensor MUST be below 10 degrees before the Icemaker starts the ejection cycle. Sooooo, If the OP's ice is harvesting, his freezer temp measurements are NOT correct and his freezer is below 10 degrees which IS spec. He has NO PROBLEM with his refer, he just thinks he has. Doug

Refer on coldest setting would indicate that there is an issue.
I would suggest rechecking clearances between cooling unit and outside wall.

Seem as though it is installed properly, including exhaust fans on a thermostat. I will look for the LAT switch.

In other words, you don't want to get into that aspect. If you wont work a little bit for it, you may be getting all the performance your going to get.

Last one I took out had the roof vent 75% covered with roof material but hey, your fan turns on so I'm sure everything was done perfeclty.
