Re: Vitrifrigo DP 2600 refrigerator
If there is a buildup of ice on the evaporator (in the freezer), it will be inefficient. Too much ice will also block the passage between the freezer and the compartment below which will prevent that compartment from cooling down properly.
Did you try defrosting it?

I can always tell when I need to defrost because the temp will rise in the fridge section while the freezer is still nice and cold. There's only one compressor so if the freezer is getting to 0 or so it's working like it should . Defrost should take care of your issue.
Totally agree, but this also means you don't have good air circulation in the fridge section. If the air in the fridge part was blown past the frosting in the freezer part, you'd have plenty of cooling and the frosting would be gone.
The to OP: I'm curious about how that unit fits in the space and how well you like it. I have the same boat and am considering replacing my old Norcold with a new unit. Do you have any pics handy of yours?
