Why your freezer is ice buildup
A slab of ice forms under the bottom shelf or across the floor of the compartment and comes back within a week of being chipped out on the freezer. Not urgent in itself, but it is a symptom of something still degrading.
Causes, in the order we check them
- 01A damper stuck holding cold air in one compartment
- 02A defrost drain blocked with ice
- 03A defrost system that's stopped cycling
- 04A defrost heater that's burned out
- 05A door gasket letting humid air in
Quick checks worth doing
Start here — it costs nothing and rules out the obvious cause: check the door seal for gaps and confirm interior vents aren't blocked — the most common self-fixable cause. Before you conclude anything, check the drain outlet and the pan for standing water or ice, which tells you whether the defrost water is getting out. Beyond that, a genuinely failed defrost heater or timer needs the interior panel off to confirm — misdiagnosing it means paying for the wrong part.
We diagnose the freezer against the model-specific service data rather than working from the symptom alone. Whichever of these it turns out to be, the reading taken on site is what decides the part — not the symptom on its own.
What Fruit Cove's climate does to a freezer
Between the heat and the humidity, Fruit Cove is a demanding climate for a freezer to age well in. Humid air pulled in at every door opening is what feeds the frost load, and the heat is what keeps the compressor chasing it. So the fix on a Fruit Cove freezer accounts for the conditions it has to survive afterwards.

Common questions
Answered before you call.
Is the repair covered by a warranty?
We stand behind the work with an 18-month labor warranty and 90-day parts warranty — a recurrence in that time gets fixed again at no cost.
How does the visit work?
First the fault is reproduced and measured, then you get an explanation of the failure in plain terms and what putting it right requires. Nothing is replaced on a guess.
Where do the replacement parts come from?
OEM wherever the repair calls for it. If a part is no longer produced for your model, you hear that up front rather than after the invoice.
Will you tell me if it is not worth fixing?
We will say so. If the failure is one that takes a unit past sensible repair — a failed sealed system on an old cabinet, say — you get that assessment rather than a part you would replace again next year.
