What's inside a Roper freezer
Roper upright and chest freezers are simple machines, and many are manual-defrost units that rely on the owner to clear frost periodically. When frost builds thick, cooling falls off and the unit runs constantly. Frost-free uprights add a defrost heater, sensor and control. Freezers kept in an unheated garage, porch or basement face another issue in winter: most are built for indoor ambient temperatures, and cold surroundings can keep the compressor from running often enough. The owner's manual lists the rated range. Compressor start relays, fans and door gaskets are the other common repairs.
Parts that tend to fail on Roper freezers
- Heavy frost from skipped manual defrost
- Defrost heater failed on a frost-free upright
- Compressor start relay not engaging
- Door gasket torn or out of shape
- Freezer struggling in an unheated garage

Something else on your mind?
Reach out with the brand, the symptom and a model number if you have one. Some questions we can answer on the spot; the rest a technician can check in person.
It may be fine. Many freezers aren't designed for very cold rooms, and cold surroundings can keep them from running. Check the manual's rated ambient range before assuming a repair is needed.
Most chest freezers are manual-defrost and need to be defrosted when frost builds up. Heavy frost reduces cooling and makes the freezer run longer.
