ice build up in our Marvel wine cooler
Hi all,
Our wine cooler is relatively new...one year...but has had a problem with ice build up since we bought it. We are in humid and hot sunny Florida and I have felt that the problem is caused by opening and shutting so often in the humidity. Does everyone agree or should I be calling a repair company? Should the cool setting be higher or lower during the more humid months? I also thought that maybe I had the setting too high. The cooler seems to be cooling just fine. Maybe my husband shouldn't be pulling so many beers out of there??!!! (Say yes!) e |

More often I just need to mop the condensation out of the bottom of the box. If you set the control higher, you may eliminate the frosting-up but you'll still have to contend with condensation. Don't know what range of temperatures your control will give, but I like my beer about 40 degrees and my wine about 55 (white) and 65-70 (red). I keep the beer in the fridge. SJF |
