Help!  I’ve been having continuous high humidity in my cheese fridge since cold weather set in.  All during the warm weather I had to work to keep it up to 85, but now I can’t get it down.  It was running from 96 to 99% all the time.  The other day I happened to be in the freezer compartment at the top of the fridge and noticed pools of water, from accumulated condensation I suppose.  Well, I dried it all out and within a couple hours the humidity dropped to 90.  I figured I had hit upon the problem.  Well, its now 2 days later, the humidity is back to 99%, and there’s more water in the freezer compartment.  Am I going to have to wipe that out daily, or is there some way of keeping it from accumulating?  I think I’ll try packing it solid with an old blanket and see if that helps.  Any of you had similar experiences??

It sounds like theirs a block some ware that is not allowing runoff, other wise it might be wise to contact the manufacturer and see what they say. Might be something wrong with the compressor.

This is an ancient fridge that I got free when its previous owner was going to trash it.  So tech support is probably not an option.  This morning the humidity was at 92, which is still a bit high; but I could live with it better than 99.  As I said before, its not a problem in warm weather.  When the fridge runs more frequently, the freezer compartment stays frozen, and that’s likely why.

If u can and are inclined, open up the back and see if their anything that looks like a run off and clean the tube.
