Hello people,

I have a problem with a freezer in my bakery, most techs are too lazy to fix its correctly. The issue is my drain pan icing up, the ice blocks the outlet of the drain pan, condensate over flows into the freezer - ice everywhere!

Had problems with this freezer icing in the past, we had other issues i solved with the help of people on this forum.

I have rerun the pvc drain (thought it was a pitch issue), have a clear swing check valve on the line too. It flows to a sink in the basement.

The manufaturer of the box told me years ago to run 6 defrost cycles at 20-25 min, recently my fridge tech made it 4 cycles at 40 min. Could this be an issue???

What is the best remedy? Is there a heater i can add to the pan under the coil?

Incase you are wondering, yes the coil heaters are working.



Thanks in advance!
