Freeze Smart: Simple Ways to Prevent Frost Build-Up in Your Freezer

Open the freezer door only when necessary. The more warm, moist air gets in, the more likely frost will form.

Cool Food Before Freezing:
Never place hot or warm food directly into the freezer. It raises the internal temperature and causes condensation that turns into frost.

Use Airtight Packaging:
Store food in well-sealed, moisture-proof containers or freezer bags to prevent moisture release.

Don’t Overload or Underload:
A full freezer retains cold better, but avoid overpacking—air must circulate freely to maintain even temperature.

Check the Door Seal (Gasket):
Make sure the rubber seal around the door is clean and closes tightly. A loose seal lets in warm air.

Set the Right Temperature:
Keep your freezer at or below 0°F (-18°C). Use a thermometer to monitor and adjust as needed.

Defrost Regularly (Manual Freezers):
If your freezer isn’t frost-free, schedule a defrost session when frost buildup reaches 1/4 inch.
