@HerrMeier007 Год назад

I only have this little freezer department on top of my fridge and it was basically just an ice block at this point. That’s why I couldn’t add anything to let it melt. So here’s what I did: I warmed water to 80 degrees, put it in a little spray can and sprayed all over the ice. It got relatively loose pretty fast. Than I took a knife and „hammered“ it carefully below. It got loose enough to take the entire thing out as one piece. I threw it in the shower and ran hot water over it. Worked super nicely and now I can actually keep things in there 😅

@madcrocco Год назад

That’s the content we truly need in the internet. Thanks! In my situation, my fridge drawers were leaking, so I took them out and put glass bowls instead (it also allowed to make water hotter and that sped up the process). Hope it helps someone!

Thanks for the tips! ❤ Last year, my top drawer froze shut 😅 I was still able to open it with a bit of strength, so I thought to myself "I need to defrost it soon" 😅😅😅 but I just moved out to my own house and never did this and had no idea how to do it. The instruction manual says to empty the freezer and leave it open overnight, but with hot weather and no second freezer, I didn't want to risk leaving my food out all night. This video popped up and it looked so easy! I decided to go ahead and defrost it immediately! It took a good hour and a half with changing the cooled down water for hot water every 15 minutes. But with minimal scraping, I don't mind at all! I'm glad my freezer is perfectly clean and clear of ice! It's the first time in 4 years I defrosted this freezer 😅 (I got it brand new when I moved!) But now I know how easy it is, I won't procrastinate when it's time to do it again! ❤

Mark waters I like your analogy of the ice monster which is a very good way to describe what is going on with my fridge freezer. Thanks

@marka6487 2 года назад

If you defrost before ice builds up, you can leave the food in the trays as it only takes a few minutes with a heater to defrost with very little to clean up. Done on a regular basis instead of leaving it until you have no choice, it is quick and easy, instead of something to dread. If you need to clean the trays, they can be emptied onto the bench as it only takes a quick wipe to clean them, by the time you are done, the freezer is defrosted.

My freezer is in the same room as the electric clothes dryer. Open the freezer door, route the flexible dryer hose in front, turn the dryer temperature to Mediterranean (not Sahara), and blast away.

No matter how you defrost it, don't damage the cold coils. Clean the door gasket and the front where the gasket seals too. Check the seal with the door closed for any gaps. Any leak will cause frost to form.

@billsmith2212 2 года назад

I believe if bleach or any harsh chemicals are used on the rubber seals , they will harden and no longer seal well . I have a 30+ year old refrigerator in good condition . However , after Covid hit , some " help " went crazy with bleach and other cleaners . It ate into the white painted finish and then into the metal . It has now started to rust where the paint is gone !

Thanks mate. Beauty. [edit] Just the prep itself took me about 15mins. We didn’t have esky’s so I used plastic crates lined with a bathroom towel to store the frozen products. I transferred the crates to the garage to ensure they wouldn’t defrost too much. I then discovered the freezer trays weren’t sealed 😂🤦🏻‍♂️ so after a quick swap and mop, the oven trays filled with boiling water (cos they’re metal 😊), and were in, the process could begin. But thanks. This was inspiring for what I have always found to be a daunting task. 😅😂

I had a similar small freezer for a while except my drawers were plastic coated wire. I used the hot water method a couple of times but it made a mess on my floor from all the dripping water so I quickly figured out another tactic. I had mine on a little rolling dolly so I would roll it out the front door & use my garden hose to spray it until all the ice was melted. Then dried it out & returned it inside.

Great idea in theory, it may work for many but not for me. The trays in my freezer aren't one moulded piece. They are two bits that clip together so they would leak. I only have one washing up bowl that doesn't fit the shelf so that's not an alternative either. Glad my fridge is now a frost free one though, my next freezer will be too. .

@LurgsHowToGuides 2 года назад

Yeh frost free is the way to go but they are much smaller inside.

@warren5037 Год назад

Honestly never thought of it before. My freezer compartment had lots of ice but this method seriously saved me from considering the long process of open defrosting (too impatient lol 😆). Left the hot water for about an hour cause I wasn't sure if 15 mins was going to be enough for how thick the ice in my fridge was but honestly, one hour was probably too long, 30 mins would likely have done the trick. Thanks so much for the tip ✌

Back in the 80's, I lived in an apartment that had regular refrigerator/freezer units (not frost free). To clear the freezer coils, there was a plug-in heater designed to do the job - just turn off the fridge, clear the freezer and place it in, plug in and wait about an hour. Somewhere near 2 AM I suddenly woke up, remembering the heater was still ON. Ran to the kitchen, unplugged it and on opening the door, the door lining (plastic) slumped to the floor, all melted! Luckily I knew where to purchase a new liner for the door (and freezer door) and replaced it, otherwise I would be buying the landlord a new one.

Frost free is great if you have room for a large freezer. However if you have a small freezer the frost free unit takes up half a draw space.

True. The modern fridge freezers are big but when you open the doors they are tiny inside (lots of insulation), they are like a reverse Tardis!

Thank you so much. Defrosted in under 30mins. I used a steel bowl and poured boiling water in it and then kept it in the basket. Had to reheat the water one more time and voila !!!!!!

My favorite freez food is ice cream sandwiches made by Mayfield creamery USA. I use a hand held steamer by shark to steam out freezer, done in 10 minutes. Cheers

I use puppy pads to put in the shelves and underneath, soaks up the water= less mess and no washing towels etc.

Try the frost mat’s on the shelves and they will greatly reduce or eliminate frost. They extend the time between defrosts.

@sheilacooper3332 5 месяцев назад

Once you have dried the frezzer completely, I put glycerin over all sufaces. When you defrost it next time with just a little steam like this video shows the ice drops away easily. I will say the shelves with all those lines are a pain but it still helps. All the sides and tops aee a joy to watch it drop off. My concern now is glycerin is now sold as a vegetable glycerin so i need to check it out. Fingers crossed 🤞 ive alsi just read a plain flavoured vegetable oil does the same thing, hence me on this site.
