Summit FFB245 ss water pooling under bins - Summit FFBF245SS Bottom Freezer Freestanding Refrigerator

The drain is blocked. The evaporator is defrosted every 24 hours. The water should go to a pan where is then evaporates. Look at the rear for a pipe.

I used to own one of these. Water got in the seal on mine and damaged the board and I saw a similar effect. If it is under pool warranty from the installation, call the pool company to see if they will replace the computer board in the light or the whole light.

Hi,
Here is a tip that will tell you where the water is coming from and how to fix it. The drain hole has froze shut and the water from the defrost will not drain out.

They normally have a drain hol at the back for condensation which can get blocked, if its more serious http://www.fridgeshop.net/ are very helpful.

Your evaporator coils frost up in normal use and every eight hours or so the entire unit shuts down and the defrost heater comes on to melt the frost. This cycle last about 20 minutes. The melted frost drips into a drain pan and through a drain tube to the drain tray under the freezer/refrigerator where it's evaporated by the condenser fan.


Your drain tube may be stopped up with ice at the upper end because 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 pressure with a turkey baster will usually clear it out. Flushing it out with hot water and clorox may help.
Make sure it drains quick enough to prevent refreezing. . The drain should be located below the evaporator coils on the lower back of the freezer.

Hi, The drain is plugged coming from the freezer section. Please get me a model# and I can assist you with this problem. Thanks Vic

sounds like you do have a clogged drain tube, its self defrosting but the defrost water is pooling under hte crispers instead of in the drain pan under unit.so you ll either have to remove hte rear panel of freezer and locate the drain trough/ tube, and defrost it allowing for water to drain down, o rclear all the tube leading down to the drain pan.

no connection between lower drawer and water dispenser, however there is a water tank behind the crisper's storing water for the dispenser, its possible that there is a hole in the tank or a connection is leaking there and dripping water. remove all 3 crisper's and give a look at it. try getting water from dispenser while your checking (Might only leak when water dispenses
