How does moisture get inside containers refrigerator?
There are a few ways that moisture can get into containers in a refrigerator:
* Evaporation: When warm, humid air comes into contact with a cold surface, the water vapor in the air condenses and turns into liquid water. This can happen when you open the refrigerator door and warm, humid air rushes in. It can also happen if you put warm food in the refrigerator without letting it cool down first.
* Leaks: If there is a leak in the refrigerator door seal, warm, humid air can seep in and cause condensation.
* Defrosting: When the refrigerator defrosts, the ice that has built up on the evaporator coils melts and turns into water. This water can drip down into the refrigerator and cause condensation.
Here are some tips to help reduce the amount of moisture in your refrigerator:
* Keep the refrigerator door closed as much as possible. This will help to prevent warm, humid air from getting in.
* Let warm food cool down before putting it in the refrigerator. This will help to prevent the evaporation of water vapor from the food.
* Check the refrigerator door seal for leaks. If you find a leak, replace the seal.
* Clean the refrigerator regularly, including the evaporator coils. This will help to remove any water that has accumulated.
