Hi there, I know that most units have a drip tray at the back or under the unit itself. well the older ones anyway, not sure with really new ones, but they shoukd. these trays hod water condensation and any drainage from the fridge itself. These trays sometimes have a coil in them which heats and help to evaporate the waterso that it does not overfill and spill out. these trays can become overfilled, the heating elemet can stopworking or

Hello,

On older freezers/refrigerators the drip pan could easily be removed. On newer models its now part of the base frame and their is no way to remove it. Dam shame if ya ask me since it was recommended noraml to remove and clean drain pan every couple months, but hey ain't modern technology great hehehehe

There is a chance the water is coming from the drip tray and or the drain hose to the tray.
when the unit goes into a defrost cycle it is leaking from one of those places check and make sure the hose is in the drip pan correctly and that the pan is also mounted properly and level.

If there is is a lot of water in the pan you may need to check the door seals on you unit and make sure they are sealing properly.

If there is an air leak then the unit could have excessive ice build up and also be defrosting more than usual amounts of water.

When a refrigerator leaks water like yours, it is common for the problem to be nothing more than a clogged defrost drain. When the unit defrosts itself, the frost melt water drips into a pan underneath the evaporator in the freezer, and goes through a tube from there to the bottom outside of the unit. Since the water cant go down this drain, it backs up on the freezer floor, then eventually the kitchen floor.

Try this to find it. http://www.appliancepartspros.com/modelnumber_locator.aspx

check the flor of the freezer if it is caked with ice your defrost drain is clogged
if not
take off the back panal
under the machine follow the drain tube
to the drain pan clean out your duck bill and make sure the tube is in the pan

On my upright freezer I use pans or trays I have and set them in the bottom where it catches nearly all the water. I don't have to empty them till it's all melted because it till hold all of it.

Can you provide me with the make and model of your fridge plz so we can start to fix this problem for you.
Thank you.
