Why your Traulsen walk-in cooler is leaking water
When a Traulsen walk-in cooler is leaking water, here's what you'll usually notice: puddles around or under the appliance — could be drain pan, gasket, water inlet valve, or hose failure. More often than not it traces back to blocked or frozen defrost drain. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.
Most likely causes
- Worn door gasket
- A cracked or clogged drain pan
- Failed water inlet valve
- A loose or split supply hose
Known Traulsen walk-in cooler weak points
- door hinge and gasket wear on heavy stainless doors
- evaporator icing and defrost heater/timer failures
- electronic controller (Intela-Traul/legacy) faults
- condenser fan motor and dirty condenser causing temperature rise
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Worth checking yourself first: trace exactly where water first appears, since that narrows down whether it's a hose, gasket, or drain issue. Beyond that, a leak that keeps coming back is typically inside the sealed system or behind a panel, and chasing it further risks water damage to electrical components best left to a technician.
