What an LG Technician Deals With
Ice that builds up at the bottom of the freezer usually means a blocked freezer drain, so defrost water refreezes instead of reaching the drain tray. Source: LG USA - LG Refrigerator: Troubleshooting Ice Buildup in an LG Refrigerator
What LG Says to Check First
- Craft Ice maker leaking. Partially close the supply valve, lower the freezer to 0°F or colder and check that the door gasket seals, since high pressure or warm air can cause it. Source: LG USA - LG Refrigerator: Why is the ice tray overfilling with water?
- Frost buildup in freezer. Confirm the freezer and fridge settings, make sure nothing keeps the door from closing and clean or reseat the door gasket, then watch it for 4 to 6 hours. Source: LG USA - LG Refrigerator: Frost Buildup - Freezer Only
