Causes of a bad freezer door gasket can include wear and tear over time, exposure to extreme temperatures, or damage from frequent opening and closing of the freezer door. A compromised gasket can lead to inefficient cooling and increased energy consumption.

Symptoms of a bad freezer door gasket include:

• Frost buildup inside the freezer
• The freezer door not closing properly
• Increased energy bills due to the appliance working harder to maintain temperature
• Warm spots or inconsistent cooling within the freezer

Common causes of a bad gasket include frequent door openings, buildup of dirt and grime, or natural wear and tear over time. A compromised gasket can lead to air leaks, causing the refrigerator to work harder to stay cold and potentially leading to higher energy bills.

Symptoms of a bad door gasket include:

• The refrigerator door not sealing properly
• Visible cracks, tears, or deformities in the gasket
• Increased condensation or frost buildup around the door
• Higher than usual energy consumption
