Why is water pooling in the bottom of my refrigerator?

Answer by  jenniev (206)

Chances are the reason you have water pooling in the bottom of the refrigerator is due to a problem with the freezer and a leaky seal.

It sounds like you have a leaking seal somewhere. When you seals goo bad it lets air from outside the fridge in. This air condenses into water on the cold sides of the fridge and pools on the bottom. See if you can find the problem and fix it.

If you have a built in water dispenser it could be leaking. Try turning it off or disconecting it to see if it still happens. Also be careful that it's not the freezer breaking and starting to not keep cool enough to make ice.

Well this sounds like a sign of a bad door seal. When a door seal leaks it allow air to be pulled in from outside the fridge. The warm air comes inside and then cools creating condensation. This condensation then runs down into the bottom of the fridge and pool. Adjust your seal so it's tight all the way around.

could be a leaky seal or the freezer leaking. When leaky seals go bad this is what creates water to pool to bottom of frigerator. The air condenses into water on cold side of frige and pools water to bottom. See could you fix problem or get it repaired.
