Some dual temperature wine coolers build up frost in the rear and top of the main compartment. Check the defrost timer, located either inside the main compartment near the light, or outside on the back of the wine cooler near the compressor. Look in the owner's manual for the correct settings for the defrost timer and adjust yours as needed. Make sure that you have the wine cooler in a spot where the outside temperature remains at or near room temperature to reduce frost buildup.

Danby DWC2121BLS dual commpartment wine cooler is cooling normally but after 2 days aprox the temperature increase and beeping and flashing hi

If evaporator starts to freeze up the ice accumulated serves as an insulator and the temps go up. If you turn it off and let ice buildup melt the unit will work fine again until it refreezes.

Check if unit has a device to prevent ice build up. If so, it is not working. If warm moist air is entering the area of evaporator coil, that could also be causing the buildup.

I have frost on back of unit.what to do?

Usually if you see frost or ice it is because the Freon level is low. There is a 5 year warranty on the compressor and sealed cooling system so if your within that period, I would call the manufacturer.

Bottom level of wine cooler frosted up. Trying to defrost. What is the problem?

It sounds like your thermostat is set to low, if there is a fan check it. That can also happen for a while before it quits working if there is a refrigrent leak.

Why is our EuroCave DUO wine cooler model D264 freezing 1/4 inch of ice on back wall inside cooler?

Most cases of ice build up can be traced to seals that leak humid air into the cooler. Check the door seal carefully using a fresh $1 bill. The bill should not pull out easily when the door is closed. If the unit has a self defrost feature it it is not coming on. Ice buildup inside a wine cooler is very rare. The cooler box should not reach 32deg in normal operation. Does the unit seem to run continuously?

I have a GE ZDB24A under counter wine cooler that continues to frost up regardless of the setting. I have a second cooler downstairs which stays clean - no frost. What do I need to do?

check the door seal, make sure that its not ripped or dirty. Its possible that moisture is entering the wine cooler thru the door gasket. Frost is normally the result of warm moisture mixing with cold air. The door gasket should be the problem. if you thoroughly examine and its fine, let me know and we'll go to the next step.

Why is there water in the bottom of my wine cooler

cos you have condensation inside due to the fact that it is not frost free OR you have a seal leak.....OR the door is constantly open and closed (my beer fridge is like that.....)
