Maytag french door refrigerator freezer ice build up. Use ice packs or dry ice to keep your food items frozen while you work on the freezer. It has the ice and water on the door as well. The ice slowly builds up every month. Unplug your maytag fridge from the wall outlet.
This last week i have noticed that ice is building in the bottom of the freezer it s as if water is leaking from somewhere and pooling to the bottom of the freezer and freezing. To avoid excess moisture buildup minimize door openings. Humid room air causes moisture to build especially when the doors are frequently opened. An improper seal of the gaskets on the refrigerator or freezer doors could also cause humidity to form.
The refrigerator is 6 years old and made by samsung. To remove the ice we have to remove the freezer drawer and melt the ice away. Get all items out at one time keep food organized and close the door as soon as possible. The repairman said that it s the control board that needs replacing because the fridge was not defrosting every 8 hours or so like it s supposed to.
