Helpful Tips


Wear rubber soled shoes. Not only will they give you traction on a wet floor, they'll prevent the transference of electric shocks.

Don't use an ice pick or screwdriver to gouge out the ice. At best, you'll mar the interior of your freezer; at worst you'll chisel through a coolant line, releasing a toxic gas into the environment while rendering your freezer useless.

Step 2Protect your floor

Layer some old towels on the floor in front of the freezer to catch the snow. Roll up another towel and place it at the edge of the freezer floor along the rubber door seal. This will help prevent the melting ice from pouring onto the floor.
