In concrete terms, if your freezer has little ice, start by taking the food out. Then cover the bottom, sides and top with tight-fitting aluminum foil, then put the products back in place. If the frost is already well established, it is best to first perform a light defrosting, dry the walls thoroughly, and then lay the aluminum on clean, dry surfaces.
How it makes everyday cleaning easier
With this method, frost tends to form mainly on the aluminum foil rather than directly on the walls. When it’s time to clean, simply remove the sheet, remove any ice that has accumulated on it, and then replace it if necessary. The gesture is quick, without tedious scraping or long waits, making it easy to defrost the freezer.
And for the drawers, how do we do it?
Good news: the trick also works for freezer drawers. By carefully lining them with aluminum foil, you limit the adhesion of frost and make them easier to maintain. With cold and humidity, aluminum can end up crumpling or tearing, but then it only needs to be replaced, usually every few months.
A small one-time effort for lasting comfort, we say yes.
A more serene freezer on a daily basis
By reducing frost build-up, you gain practicality, visibility, and peace of mind. The drawers slide better, the door closes properly and maintenance no longer becomes a mountain. One of those simple tricks that, put together, make everyday life more fluid.
