    Water leak
    MY REFRIDGE is leaking water onto my floor .I mop and soak it up a couple times a day. There is no drip pan under it at all. It is a little older model about 10 years old.

    Hello Christina

    Fridges that start leaking have 9 out of 10 a damaged door seal, through which air is sucked in. Water in the air condenses and forms water droplets, that end up at the bottom of the fridge, and leak out on the ground.

    So first thing to do is a proper inspection of the door seals : check from all sides for breaks in the door seals.
    If there are, replace the entire door seal.

    Fridges with water dispensers may of course leak water because of a leaking dispenser. But you did not mention anything about that.

    If needed please come afterwards back to the board and post your findings !
    Notice me by private mail (click on my handle and follow instructions) and I will return here to reply.

    Success !

    :)
