Even minor wear in a fridge or freezer seal compromises performance. Our Sealies inspect thousands of seals every year across New Zealand. Here are six clear signs your seal needs replacing.
🍎 Food Spoiling Faster Than Normal
Leaking cold air causes perishables to spoil more quickly, particularly dairy, meat, and produce. Seal-A-Fridge has been helping businesses and homeowners prevent food waste since 1988.
❄️ Frost Buildup in the Freezer
Excessive frost indicates warm air entering the freezer through a worn or damaged seal. Our technicians see this daily and can quickly diagnose whether seal replacement will solve the problem.
🌿 Mould or Mildew on the Seal
High humidity in New Zealand homes encourages mould growth on seals, creating hygiene concerns and health risks. Seal-A-Fridge’s nationwide network of Sealies understands New Zealand climate challenges and fits seals that resist mould growth.
🚪 Door Doesn’t Close Properly
Even a small gap reduces efficiency dramatically, letting expensive cold air escape continuously. Our mobile technicians, Sealies, carry precision measuring tools to ensure perfect door alignment after seal replacement.
⚡ Rising Energy Bills
A worn seal forces your fridge to run longer, increasing electricity consumption by up to 25%. For over three decades, Seal-A-Fridge has helped New Zealand homes and businesses reduce energy waste through proactive seal maintenance.
🔧 Visible Cracks, Tears, or Warping
Cracks, tears, or warping mean the seal cannot form an airtight barrier. Our Sealies custom-make replacement seals on site, ensuring perfect fit for any fridge model.
