Possible Causes
High room humidity, Anti-sweat heater not functioning (if equipped), Poor door seal causing cold bridge, Gasket surface contamination
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: No internal electrical work is required for basic checks.
Steps:
- Reduce humidity: Use a dehumidifier in the room if humidity is very high.
- Clean gasket: Wipe the gasket with warm soapy water and dry thoroughly to improve sealing.
- Check seal: Ensure the gasket contacts the cabinet evenly. Adjust hinges or replace the gasket if necessary.
- Anti-sweat system: On models with anti-sweat heaters, if condensation is severe and persistent, the heater circuit or control may need professional diagnosis.
Note: Some minor condensation can be normal in very humid environments.
