Signs Your Freezer Needs a Technician
- Food is soft or ice cream will not stay firm
- Freezer runs constantly but stays warm
- Heavy frost on the back wall or around the door
- Water pooling under or inside the freezer
Protecting the Food While You Wait
Keep the door closed. Every opening lets cold air out. Put an appliance thermometer inside so you know the real temperature, and move food to another freezer or a cooler with ice if the repair will take longer than the freezer can hold.
