Why Defrosting Matters
Over time, ice buildup in a freezer can:
Reduce efficiency: The motor works harder, consuming more energy.
Shrink storage space: Thick ice takes up room meant for food.
Slow freezing: Blocked air circulation prevents even cooling.
Regular defrosting keeps your freezer running smoothly, lowers your electricity bill, and ensures your food stays fresh.
The Genius Trick: Defrost Without Unplugging
Instead of unplugging the freezer or pouring in boiling water, all you need is a fan and a little airflow.
What You Need
A fan (with adjustable speed if possible)
A container or tray to collect water
A dry cloth or absorbent towel
A plastic spatula (never metal — to avoid damage)
