Could this be a leaking fridge

[TS345]

Hello,
I have found a pool of water that seems to be coming from my beko fridge (fridge with no freezer compartment – i have a separate freezer) 😕 – this has only happened a few times and initially I thought it was coming from somewhere else such as a leaking pipe under the floor but I’m not quite sure that this water is coming from my Beko Larder Fridge that I have had for about 1 year – the water seems to pool around the fridge area. Could this be a leaking tray? It is not ongoing but happens every couple of months and I assume that there is a build up of water or defrost acting in the fridge that accumulates over time and then leaks out onto the floor – it’s realy odd. I mopped it up earlier inthe week and since then no more water….but i expect that in a month or so it will happne again….any ideas? 😕

Re: Could this be a leaking fridge

Check the drain inside the fridge to see if it is blocked.
You can use a small Phillips screwdriver to check it’s clear.

If the leak is due to the tray on top the compressor over flowing then the compressor may not be getting hot enough to evaporate the water.

This is normally due to the ambiant temperature or moisture in the air.

If it is over flowing you can put a piece of Oasis block in the tray to improve the evaporation of the water.
