Possible Causes

Gasket not sealing, High humidity environment, Door frequently opened, Mullion heater not operating (if equipped)

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Unplug the freezer before inspecting electrical heaters.

  • Step 1 – Inspect gasket seal: Look for gaps where warm, moist air can enter. Adjust or replace the gasket as needed.
  • Step 2 – Reduce humidity: Use a dehumidifier in very humid rooms and minimize door openings.
  • Step 3 – Mullion heater (if present): Some models have a heater around the door frame. If the frame is sweating heavily, the heater circuit may be open. This typically requires testing and replacement by a technician.
