1. Refrigeration system
The gas coolant can produce gurgling sounds while it circulating round the pipes. At the same
time, the material used for isolating the appliance tends to amplify theses noises.
2. Compressor
This can generate buzzing and/or slight rattling.
3. Materials
Due to the different types of materials used in the construction of the appliance, clicking souds
are produced by the various dilations and contractions.
