This Refrigerator works fine, but every day or two water drains out on the floor. About four ounces. Could you please tell me if the drain could be stopping up and then releasing under a little pressure?
Thanks, Charles

The evaporator is defrosted periodically by the auto defroster. The water will just drain at this time. The drain is probably stopped up with ice. Since it's in the freezer it doesn't unstop. it drains too slow because it's stopped up at the lower end in the evaporator pan under the unit at the floor. It can get dust and mold in it. Once you get the ice out at the top a little air pressure will usually clear it out. Flush it out with hot water and clorox may help. Make sure it drains quick enough. The drain should be located below the evaporator coils on the lower back of the freezer.
