What you say isn't to clear but I wonder if the drainage is blocked. When it defrosts where does the water go? Should be a tub on top of the compressor, a tube with some copper tubing through it OR a drain, check that the pipe leading to here is clear.
There is a lot more information needed to make an accurate diagnosis.
