Tip: One way to track outages....I freeze the tall 8oz mason jar with water, then a place a quarter on top of the ice, put on a lid. I check the jar each time I open the freezer. If the quarter is not on top of the ice, it means it has melted and refrozen with the quarter further down in the jar. Not an original idea by me but it is good piece of mind after my one freezer mishap.

I went through a wildfire evacuation in July 2022, and lost everything in the fridge and upright freezer (power was shut off and everything thawed and got too warm). Even though the meat had been put into vacuum-sealed bags, it was better to be cautious than not. And then just recently the upright started acting weird (too much ice accumulation in the back was making it cycle a bit too loudly, and the top shelf was stacked too high with meat), and all it needed was a good defrosting and it was back to normal. Your freezer needed a good once-over for sure, and maybe another round of "eating through your freezer" too. But you got it done, and my compliments to the kids who spotted the issue before it turned even more nasty.

A hammer is a bad idea. You can break the pipes that lays inbetween the wireshelfs and contain freezemedia. We always use hot water in saucepans on the shelfs, we let the hot steam melt the ice in the freezer. When it's all melted we clean it out.

@amixeblu 4 месяца назад

Yeah, it's... stuck, looks like you need a hammer. We typically get it all out (when it's of course do-able, your situation is clearly so different right now), then use a regular blow dryer, not hot, not cool, just medium temp and move it around a lot, meanwhile you unplug the thing, or put it on de-frost, we unplug. Our freezer has a well in the bottom that the water pools into, we just put a shallow container there and empty it out, plus a lot of floor size rags/EU style mops. It's a chore, but it's so rewarding!!!

@youk6736 4 месяца назад

Usualy if something like this happens i use a stainless steal utensil that is strong enough to break the ice take the food out put it in those small portable fridge (those you use to take with you in a trip to the beach) we have 3 of them and it is usualy enough for all my freezed food , then to clean the freezer i will tel uou guys that im lazy enough not to break all the ice from the shelves i just pour warm water over it (after turning off the freezer oc) and i wipe excess water as i go big towels on the floor help i didnt think of it befor but i used to use small towels to take out water from the ice that melted and the hot water that i poured there to melt it then mopp the floor after im done its a little bit more work but it is way quicker to melt the ice rather than breaking it and taking it out

Call your local zoo or animal sanctuary. They are usually happy to take freezer burnt meat, produce and fruit for their animals.

@caroljane75 4 месяца назад

I have freezers I’m eating thru so I can do this. Maybe start this weekend. Just so you are aware, those vacuum sealed meats…hitting them with a hammer can put a small hole in them and break your seal. Also, that chicken and other meat you didn’t seal. Do it now. You may not get that “diaper” off the bottom, but seal it with it on. Frozen meat gives you a better seal. Whatever freezer damage it has won’t get worse if you seal it now. Nice job.

Using a hammer on the iced-over shelves can damage the little hoses of freezing agents and ruin your whole freezer.
