Why is there a sheet of ice on the floor of my Roper freezer?

That usually means the defrost drain tube has frozen or clogged, so melt water from the defrost cycle spills onto the freezer floor. Clearing the drain and finding why it froze, sometimes a failed drain heater or a gasket leak, is the repair. We check the defrost system at the same time.

The freezer column in our Waxhaw kitchen is frosting up inside. What causes that?

Frost inside a built-in freezer usually comes from a door that is not sealing or an automatic defrost system that has stopped working. Check that nothing is propping the door and the gasket is intact. If frost keeps returning, we can test the defrost heater, sensor and control.

Do you service chest freezers in detached garages and outbuildings in Marvin?

Yes. Just tell us where the freezer is when you book so the technician knows where to go. Make sure there is a clear path and working light near the unit if you can.

Roper Freezers: What We Check First

Roper-badged standalone freezers are uncommon, so most Roper freezer problems we see involve the freezer compartment on top of a Roper refrigerator. That compartment is where all the cooling happens: the evaporator coil sits behind its rear panel, the evaporator fan sits just above it, and the defrost heater and thermostat keep the coil clear. If you do own a standalone Roper freezer, the same basic principles apply, though manual-defrost chest designs have fewer parts.

Defrost system failure building solid frost on the evaporator
Torn freezer gasket letting humid air create snowy frost
Evaporator fan chirping or grinding behind the rear panel
Frozen defrost drain tube spilling water onto the freezer floor

The full explanation, including what you can safely check yourself and when repair beats replacement, is in our Roper freezer repair guide.

Columns, Drawers and Garage Chests

Freezers here come in more shapes than usual. Built-in kitchens may have an all-freezer column beside a matching refrigerator, or undercounter freezer drawers in an island or bar. Garages and workshop buildings on larger lots often hold an upright or chest freezer for bulk food. Each fails differently: columns and drawers tend toward fan, sensor and defrost faults, while garage units fight summer heat and dust.

If the freezer is warming, keep the door shut and move the most valuable food to another freezer if you have one. With the power off, check that the door or lid gasket is clean and sealing, and clear dust from the grille or coils. A freezer column with heavy frost on the back panel usually has a defrost problem, not a sealed-system failure.

The technician tests the defrost heater and controls, fans, sensors, start components and compressor operation. We never open a sealed system without explaining what that involves and its cost. You will know what failed and what the fix costs before we start. Long driveways and outbuildings are no problem; just tell us where the unit lives.
