This is not new information. As a matter of fact, in hot weather, I turned my Norcold off every morning to eliminate the defrost cycle. The defrost cycle would heat the interior of the refer to defrost the rear fins. The problem, was the darn Norcold would not recover. I only had frost issues once and found it more productive to heat the fins quickly with a blow dryer and then close the door.
Unless you have the 2100 series Norcold, there is NO defrost heater on the other models(1200/1210 and some 8 foot models). The 2100 series is rarely used except on hi line models. The defrost cycle on the other Norcolds is just a shut down of cooling every 48 to 54 hours for about 2 hours. This allows the evap finds to thaw out any ice. This does NOT defrost the freezer. Doug
