Common Freezers Issues
Our technicians have the expertise needed to troubleshoot and repair your freezer, regardless of the problem. Listed below are the most frequent issues we see:
Water On The Floor?
If you’ve notice water either leaking from your freezer or pooled up on the ground below, there are a few different culprits that could be at play. For starters, a simple, yet very common issue is that the freezer’s door seal has worn out, which allows warm air to get inside, causing excessive frost and condensation. This might seem frustrating, but a worn-out door seal is a relatively simple and inexpensive fix. To check your door seal, simply inspect it to see if it looks cracked, split, or broken in any way.If the seal does, in fact, appear to be worn out, it will need to be removed and replaced with a new one. On the other hand, if the seal still appears intact, and you’re still getting water on the floor, you might have a bit more of a serious problem.
Checking The Thermostat
Yet another common reason that a freezer might leak could be caused by an issue with the unit’s thermostat. Therefore, the next thing to check is that your freezer is, in fact, set at an appropriate temperature. Far too often we get calls from homeowners or business owners only to find out that someone has accidentally reset the thermostat.
So make sure to double-check this, which could save you both time and money. However, if you’re still experiencing a leak, and your temperature is set properly, the thermostat might be faulty, or the problem could be coming from elsewhere in your unit.
Other Common Causes
Although freezers are simple in nature, the mechanics inside your unit are complex, involving pumps and fans, which all help to circulate coolant, as well as the cold air inside the unit itself. When any one of these components fails to function properly, your freezer is liable to breakdown, causing issues like leaks or improper temperatures.
Whether you’re experiencing a leak, or have a unit that simply isn’t cooling properly, your issue could be caused by a faulty internal component, which might require professional assistance to repair. If unable to diagnose or repair your freezer issue yourself, or you suspect a more complex issue to do with a pump or fan, don’t hesitate to give us a call!

FAQ
Why is my freezer not freezing properly?
Possible causes include a door-seal leak, dirty condenser coils, blocked airflow, failed fan, defrost-system fault, temperature sensor, compressor, refrigerant, or control problem.
What should I do when food in my freezer starts thawing?
Keep the door closed, move food to another freezer or insulated cooler, and verify that the unit has power. Follow food-safety guidance for any food that has warmed or fully thawed.
Why is there heavy frost inside my freezer?
A door left open, damaged gasket, blocked vent, failed defrost heater, sensor, timer, or control can cause frost buildup. Do not use sharp tools to remove ice because refrigerant tubing can be damaged.
Can you repair upright, chest, drawer, and built-in freezers?
Yes. We service many upright, chest, drawer, under-counter, and built-in freezer models. Share the model number when booking to confirm coverage.
Why is water collecting under my freezer?
Water can come from melting frost, a blocked defrost drain, damaged drain pan, door-seal problem, or a nearby water connection. Disconnect power if water is near electrical components.
