Samsung Refrigerator Leaking
Refrigerator Leaking is usually one of a small number of specific, repairable causes — here's what to check and when it's worth calling a professional.
Common Causes
Corrosion at a joint rather than a failed part
Coastal air works on fittings and solder joints from outside, and the weep that results looks like a component failure but is the plumbing around it.
A clogged defrost drain
Melted frost backs up and overflows into the cabinet or onto the floor instead of draining away normally.
A worn or torn door gasket
Lets humid air in that condenses inside the cabinet or around the door frame.
Local conditions that matter here
Salt air reaches a long way inland here, and it works on a condenser coil from the outside in. Coils that would run a decade elsewhere load and corrode on a shorter cycle, so cleaning intervals that are optional inland are not optional near the water.
