What should I do if there is water accumulation in the refrigerator?

The refrigerator is an indispensable household appliance in our home. It can keep food fresh and is also a good helper for us to freeze ingredients. However, some people find that when their refrigerators are opened, there is always water accumulation and a strange smell. What's going on? In fact, when the refrigerator is opened or closed, the hot air from outside will enter and condensation water may form. If the drainage hole of the refrigerator is not drained in time, water will accumulate. So, what to do in this situation?

The first thing to check is whether the drainage hole of the refrigerator is blocked. Under normal circumstances, there will be a little water in the refrigerator, which will go out through the drainage hole, but the accumulated water is not much. If it is blocked, it must be cleaned up in time. In addition, the following problems may also cause excessive water accumulation, so you need to pay more attention to it in daily life.

1. Generally, the set temperature of the refrigerator is between 0 and 10 degrees. Since food carries a lot of moisture and heat, or the door is opened and closed frequently, it will liquefy into water when it encounters cold inside the sealed box.

2. The refrigerator door seal is aging, causing the hot air outside to rush into the refrigerator and turn into water droplets when it encounters cold air. This is an important factor in keeping water beads in the refrigerator. You can use a hair dryer to blow hot air at the door seal to soften the door glue and increase its elasticity.

3. When storing food, if the temperature is too high and it is placed directly in the refrigerator without cooling, the hot air contains a lot of water, and cooling it in the refrigerator will cause a large amount of condensation water. If the generation of condensation water is faster than the discharge rate, it will cause water accumulation.

4. Opening the door too frequently causes a large amount of hot air to enter the refrigerator. The hot air will produce condensation water during condensation. If the generation of condensation water is faster than the discharge rate, it will cause water accumulation.

5. The drainage hole designed on the back of the refrigerator is to drain the condensed water in the refrigerator. If the drainage speed is found to be poor, check whether the drainage hole is blocked. If the drainage hole is blocked, be sure to cut off the power supply and gently clear it with a thin wire. Remember not to use excessive force to damage the drainage pipe of the refrigerator.

Solutions to solve waterlogging:

When using the refrigerator normally, you should try to reduce the number of times you open the lid, so that the cold air in the refrigerator compartment will not evaporate easily. Sufficient cold air can fully convert the moisture in the food into ice. Especially in summer, water leaks from the refrigerator a lot. Just check it before closing the refrigerator, you can effectively avoid water in the refrigerator compartment.

When using a refrigerator, if you have cooked hot food that needs to be frozen, be sure to wait until the food has cooled before putting it in the refrigerator to prevent the hot air from condensing into ice, which will indirectly melt into water and remain in the freezer. If the drainage pipe is blocked, you should use a thin wire to dredge the drainage hole in the refrigerator's refrigerator compartment to drain the water. If you have tried all the above methods and there is still water accumulation, you need to find a professional technician to repair it.

When we clean the refrigerator, it is best to unplug the power supply. After cleaning the refrigerator, you need to clear and clean the drain hole. For the tools used, you can use a thicker wire and reach in and turn it a few times to drain the water. Another reason is the food in the refrigerator. You must put it in storage boxes and don't just put it in there casually. If you leave vegetables and fruits in there for a long time, water droplets will form. It's much better in a box. And there will be no odor, and there will be no peculiar smell in the refrigerator.

The food in the refrigerator should be kept separately so that it will not spoil faster. The refrigerator will also be much cleaner and the storage time of food will be extended. Put the things in the refrigerator into boxes and drain them to prevent the smell from spreading and the soup from leaking out. It can preserve the purest taste of food. If you want to have a clean storage environment, you must first clean the refrigerator and use a sterilization and deodorizing spray, which is particularly effective.

When using the refrigerator, vegetables can be stored in fresh-keeping bags. If you are used to putting grains in the refrigerator, you can also use professional storage boxes to store grains. They are practical whether placed in the cabinet or the refrigerator. If you have learned the above tricks,

At this time, you need to use a plastic bottle to fill it with water and test it. If water leaks out, it means it is unblocked. If it does not leak, then you need to use the method taught above.

Before that, we would like to remind everyone to ensure safety.
