Question

How to fix a leaking refrigerator?

Home Alliance Tech Expert
Answer

There might be several possible causes if water is dripping inside the refrigerator. Something might block either the freezer drain or the self-defrosting drain mechanism. Unplug the refrigerator first before attempting to fix it if it is leaking. Locate the drain for the defrosted water, then take the drainage pan out. After removing the cover panel, find the drainage channel or tube, and feed it into a bucket to collect any extra water. After that, take off the top part of the drain tube. Using a hairdryer, you may thaw the tube and clear out any ice-caused jams. If there is a physical obstruction, clear the blockage from the pipe using air or a snake.
