After a fairly close to ideal weekend, I was putzing around in the garage, when I noticed an ominous pink liquid dripping from the bottom of my chest freezer.
Sure enough, it was worst case...a total loss of 7 cubic feet of frozen goods(including my last 10 pounds of venison)...and I don't know why. According to the lights on the front of the freezer, it had power, and it was running. As near as I could tell, the door was fully sealed. The only depressing possibility right now is that the freezer was 'running', but not running correctly.
I won't be able to tell that for a day or two. We moved the freezer outside last night and completed Phase 1 of the cleaning. Today we will complete Phase 2, and maybe even get it plugged back in tonight. At that point, I'll put some water in it, and a thermometer or two to see how it cools down.
Not happy, not happy at all.
