Yoder loop (hot tube) – a length of a refrigeration system's warm condenser tubing that is routed inside a refrigerator or freezer cabinet to warm its surface, preventing condensation. These are usually routed near the coldest, most condensation-prone areas of the cabinet, like around a freezer section's front flange. Before this energy-saving invention, electric heaters were used for the purpose.
