Serving Charleston, SC & the Lowcountry
A little condensation is normal in Charleston’s humidity — but persistent moisture usually points to a sealing or airflow issue.

Door seal not sealing
Lets warm, humid Lowcountry air in continuously.
Door left open frequently or not closing fully
Common with overstuffed shelves blocking the door.
Defrost drain issue
Can push moisture back into the cabinet instead of draining it away.
What You Can Safely Check Yourself
Check the door gasket for gaps and wipe it clean — food debris can prevent a full seal.
When to Call a Professional
Persistent condensation despite a good door seal often points to a defrost system issue worth having checked. Daniel Appliance Repair offers same-day and next-day appointments across Charleston, SC and the surrounding Lowcountry.
