π¨ EXCESSIVE ICE BUILDUP IN YOUR COMMERCIAL WALK-IN COOLER? DON'T IGNORE IT!
Excessive ice buildup inside your commercial walk-in cooler could be an early warning sign of a refrigeration problem.
While some frost may occur under certain operating conditions, heavy ice accumulation on evaporator coils, fans, ceilings, or walls is NOT normal and could lead to reduced cooling performance, higher energy costs, and unexpected equipment breakdowns.
βοΈ Common Causes of Excessive Ice Buildup:
β
Defrost System Problems β A malfunctioning defrost system can allow ice to accumulate on evaporator coils.
β
Damaged Door Gaskets β Worn or damaged seals allow warm, humid air to enter your walk-in cooler, contributing to moisture and ice buildup.
β
Restricted Airflow β Blocked evaporator coils or poor air circulation can cause cooling problems and excessive frost.
β
Refrigeration System Issues β Certain refrigerant, temperature control, or mechanical problems can contribute to abnormal ice formation.
