Abstract: In general terms, this disclosure is directed towards a vapor recovery system. The vapor recovery system comprises material specifically designed to recondense vapor during defrost cycle. This material would be of sufficient thermal mass to remain at a lower temperature during the defrost cycle. The vapor may be condensed directly in the evaporator compartment or indirectly by removing the vapor to a remotely located recondense medium. The vapor recovery system may comprise of at least one vapor tube, a fan, and a vapor recondenser. The vapor collection tube is located proximate an evaporator. The fan is in fluid communication with the vapor collection tube and the vapor recondenser.
