Clogged or Freezing Defrost Drain

As we learnt above, the drain hole may be clogged with debris. In certain circumstances a buildup of ice may be occurred inside the drain. In order to clean the drain from ice, you will need a plumbing snake. Push one end of the snake into the drain hole as deep as you can. Move it up and down utill clog is diminished. Afterwards, fill the drain with 1 teaspoon of baking soda and slowly pour 2 cups of hot water into it. If you spilled water, wipe the area dry. Now your refrigerator is ready to work properly again.

What is it, and how can it destroy the work of your refrigerator? Drain strap is an aluminum or copper detail that is conjoint with a defrost heater and is stretching into a defrost drain. When a defrost heater is running, heat is being delivered through a drain strap and thaws any ice that may arise in a defrost drain.

Drain Heater

Drain heater is an important part of a drain system. The main task of a drain heater is to prevent water that is accumulating in the drain pan from freezing, and therefore, from clogging the drain.
