Why your U.S. Cooler walk-in freezer is ice buildup

The first things owners spot on a ice buildup U.S. Cooler walk-in freezer: frost or solid ice in freezer compartment beyond normal. Defrost system failure. More often than not it traces back to defrost system failure. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.

  • Defrost system failure

The U.S. Cooler walk-in freezer broke right before the weekend and they still came out same-day. Stood behind the warranty and used a real U.S. Cooler OEM part, not a knockoff.
