Fisher & Paykel Fridge Water Leaking in Helensvale
ISB Electrical attended a Fisher & Paykel refrigerator repair job in Helensvale where the customer reported water leaking from behind the fridge.
The fridge was still cooling, but water was appearing on the floor near the rear of the appliance. This type of fault needs to be checked quickly to avoid damage to flooring, cabinetry and electrical components.
Customer Complaint
The customer noticed water pooling behind and underneath the refrigerator. The leak continued when the water supply was connected to the fridge.
Diagnosis
We inspected the rear water connection, water inlet line, dispenser/ice maker plumbing, fittings and the area behind the refrigerator.
The leak was traced to the water line behind the fridge rather than an internal defrost drain fault.
Fault Found
A broken water line was found behind the refrigerator. Water was escaping from the damaged line and leaking onto the floor.
Repair Carried Out
The damaged water line was identified and the customer was advised regarding replacement/repair of the leaking section. The water connection area was checked to confirm the source of the leak.
