How to drain the water in the refrigerator
4hw.com.cn: the refrigerator at home has been used for a long time. Will there be a lot of water in the freezer? Because of long-term freezing, it will form a thick layer of ice, which is particularly troublesome to deal with. How can the water in the refrigerator be drained? Let's have a look.
How to remove the water in the refrigerator?
If it's a water drop, it's because there's an evaporator in the back wall of the refrigerator. When the compressor is working, it's cooled by the evaporator, so the temperature is very low, and frosting will occur. When the compressor is stopped, the frosting will slowly melt to form a water drop, and then it will flow into the water receiving box under the back wall of the refrigerator, and then it will flow into the water receiving box above the compressor through the drain hole, and then it will be pressed The temperature of the compressor evaporated slowly.
If it is ponding, the reasons are as follows:
1. The frequency of opening the door is too frequent, resulting in a large number of hot air entering the refrigerator, hot air in the condensation will produce condensate, the generation of condensate is greater than the speed of discharge will cause water accumulation.
2. Is the position of the thermostat knob normal? Sometimes we accidentally turn the thermostat knob when placing food without knowing.
Adjustment method of thermostat knob: the refrigerator thermostat knob generally has 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 when, the larger the number, the lower the temperature in the freezer. Generally in spring and autumn, we put it on the third gear. It depends on your requirements. Whether the freezer can reach below - 18 ℃. In order to keep food fresh and save electricity, we can play 1st or 2nd gear in summer and 4th or 5th gear in winter.
Some people may ask, is it wrong to set the temperature low in winter (the value of temperature controller is large) and high in summer (the value of temperature controller is small)? In fact, many people have such a misconception that the refrigerator temperature can be set at a high point when the temperature is low in winter, and lower when the temperature is high in summer.
3. When food is stored, if the temperature is too high and it is not cooled, it will be directly put into the refrigerator. The hot air has a large amount of water content. Cooling in the refrigerator will result in a large amount of condensed water, and the generation of condensed water is faster than the discharge speed, which will cause water accumulation.
4. The drain pipe of the refrigerator is blocked and cannot discharge water. Eighty percent of the users are responsible for the running water in the refrigerator. This is because the back wall of the refrigeration chamber of the direct cooling refrigerator is close to the evaporator of the refrigeration part. When the compressor unit is working, the evaporator of the refrigeration part absorbs heat from the refrigeration chamber, reducing the temperature of the back wall of the refrigeration chamber, resulting in a uniform layer of thin ice or frost on the wall. But when the compressor stops working, the temperature slowly picks up, and the ice on the back wall will gradually melt. The normal working procedure is that the melted water flows along the drain pipe to the drain pan outside the refrigerator and where it evaporates. However, if the drain pipe is blocked, the water will naturally flow out from the front when there is no place to flow, which will lead to the common situation of water flow in the refrigeration room.
How to clean the drain pipe?
First of all, check the lower drain pipe. You can find some water directly and aim it at the drain outlet, that is, fill water into the small hole (about the thickness of the little thumb) in the middle of the "V" shaped water tank at the bottom of the 'back' of the refrigerator. If the water overflows, it means that the drain pipe is blocked.
Clean the drain pipe: there is a green drain rod at the drain hole, hold the drain rod by hand, and repeatedly stir and pull at the drain hole, so as to achieve the purpose of cleaning. A longer wire can also be used to clear the drain.
