The water going through it freezes.

The water going through it freezes.

Air contains water vapour which freezes on any surface below 0degC. Each time the fridge door is opened and closed a fresh volume of air enters carrying water vapour which freezes on ..... and so the cycle continues, building a thickening layer of ice. This problem is worse in high humidity conditions (>60%) when air carries more water vapour.

The colder the air gets the less moisture it can hold. So everytime you open the fridge new, moist air comes in, upon which it condenses into water and promplty freezes onto the interior surfaces of the fridge.

Why does ice from my maytag refrigerator ice maker change the taste of drinks?

I think it's in the 'air' inside or even chemicals (maybe used in the cleaning of the inside) of the ice maker and the combination of chemicals in the water.... My ice tastes weird now that I have a new freezer, and I had no troubles before!
