Compressor running and cooling great, both fans are running, the coil is clean, etc. Condensation on wine btls; small pool of water collects on the bottom of the unit. (1) applied weather stripping where the door gasket seals – condensation reduced about 50-70%% but water still collecting on the bottom; and (2) verified drain hole is not plugged. Door gasket isn't cracked or torn, however, we were able to pull it back easily in several places but figured weather-stripping would resolve that issue. Searched the Web for a replacement gasket but find nothing - probably b/c the unit is old and b/c Wine Enthusiast (Lord Winston 50 Btl) outsourced these units but doesn't indicate to who. Don't know what else to do.

Use a 'dollar bill test' to determine if there is any air getting past the gasket. Pinch dollar between gasket and unit front. pull on dollar to see if any resistance. Do in several places, especially on hinge side of door. Also look for any other sources of air leaks. I find the most prone location is around the heat exchanger passes from compressor area to evaporator. For the moisture already collecting inside unit, look to see if evap is draining into drain trough. Maybe some obstruction diverting condensate away from drain. Is there any moisture collecting in the drain pan under the unit? HTH
