It’s definitely the defroster on my freezer. I found this post from @samwooly1 that has a similar model to me. Both Figidaire. His is FGUS2642LF2 mine is FFHS2611PF0.
The dilemma I’m starting to face is whether to merge all these devices. I have
- The compressor
- A heating element for the ice maker
- Something related to opening and closing a valve to let water back into the ice maker
- The defrost for the freezer
Items 2 & 3 have already been merged into an “Ice Maker” device. I could merge everything into a single Fridge device to get a better picture of the overall consumption of the Fridge. On the other hand, I can easily see now if something is wrong with the compressor or the defroster. If the Fridge or Defroster didn’t turn on for a long time, or never turned off, or turned on and off rapidly, or whatever I’d be able to easily see that.
To bad once a device is merged, you can’t see any info about the “sub devices”. Would be neat if it was handled the same way as “always on” when you have smart plugs and displayed all the components when you view the device.
