How to get ice off the floor in a freezer.

A little bit of frost build up in your freezer is normal but it can become a problem over time. A drain hole. Once they come off throw them in the sink. My question is how to get all the ice off the floor.

There are however simple ways to remove built up frost. My concern is this will not dry the floor thereby leaving real slick ice. My holiday freezers is on the back treated porch. Do they make ice melt that will not ruin a concrete floor yet absorb all the ice off of it.

This freezer is maintaining 10 degrees. You can scrape off the build up or defrost the freezer in order to melt the excess ice. I thought about a shop vac hot water and pump sprayer. Here is how i fixed it.

Yes water hose works real good. Every six to eight hours the defrost timer in your freezer turns on to melt any frost or ice buildup on the cooling coils behind the freezer wall. Now you can either loosen the tape and just toss the bag at someone. Too much frost can be damaging to food and can indicate a problem with your freezer.

Unplug unit spray hose the inside of the freezer with the drain plug removed and scrape the inside walls with a windshield ice scraper after the ice starts to soften then tip it over front ways to dump every thing out. Use a wet cloth to wipe down the walls and floor of the freezer to get rid of any leftover frost. Your freezer is probably free of ice maybe a little wet but still free of ice. A big bag of water and ice is lying on the floor.

Defrosting your freezer with a hairdryer may seem like a quick and easy way to get rid of the ice buildup in your freezer but you can also easily damage the inside of the freezer. I remove every thing and place in boxes with a blanket on top. Use a microfiber cloth or a sponge dipped in the solution to wipe down the door walls and floor of your freezer. The bottom of our freezer was constantly filling with ice which would eventually start leaking out of the front of the refrigerator.
