Im just guessing but maybe something is wrong with its defrost cycle
or its drain tube system, -10 deep freeze and around 40 sounds normal.
I bet the repairman did about zero and didnt care, does it frost up
anywhere inside, I think there are electric heating elements around
the deep freeze run on a timer to defrost it. In summer with high
humidity and opening the door alot is when I would think ice would
happen, maybe you got a lemon or some leftover chinese food behind the
panel.
