I have a Norcolod 1200LRIMSS 4 door refer. in my 2006 Holiday Rambler.I looked and searched on 3 fourms about the refer doing the selfdefrost , which it does quite well, but the liquid it creates has no place to go but to puddle in the bottom, when I travel it seeps out on the floor.On both of my other RVs there was a drain that allowed the condensation to exit and all was well, not this one, there is no sign of a drain or any place for the stuff to go.Need good ideas please

On our 1200LR there is a plastic tray under the fins and on the left back side a hose is attached which comes out the back.Only time we got water on the floor was a leaking ice maker hose.

Take the vent cover on the outside of the MH off and look for a drain hose. That drain hose should be put through one of the lovers of thee vent cover and then reinstall the cover and the water then will run down the outside of the MH instead of onto the floor of the refer.

This plug is supposed to have a small drain drip hole. If you pry out the plug you may find it blocked by "goop"...clean it and reinsert, allowing the water that was backed up to drain out.I find I have to do this chore once a year. Also the drain hole inside the frig, about half way down on the side of the track can get gummed up. Good luck. Sadly, even with regular care, I just had to replace the cooling unit on my Norcold 1200. :(Happy Trails

The drain hose is there, unless a prior owner removed it and the ice maker water line will develop pin hole leaks, with the water finding its way to your carpet.

The info on the drain plug on the end of the drain tube is good. It is not necessary to run the tube outside. It drips into an evaporator pan. The drain plug slows it down enough so it evaporates before it runs over.

I thought everyone was quite restrained considering the title of the topic:B I was wondering if it was splash back!

I thought he may have had prostate surgery. They say a wet bottom is normal for 6 mo. to a year after that.

Yep, grandpalarry kinda sat himself up.
I'm hoping by the time my 18 month old grandson can tell me he has a wet bottom, hes big enough to go to the bathroom by himself.

Wife was changing him one day on our bed & she had to run up front to get diaper, so she stood him in front of the bed & told him to stay, when she quickly came back he was shooting a stream & it was landing 3' away, so the little rascal has a good pump.
Oh the life of being a grandparent, never thought it could be so great.

Well, lol, at least he can find a different one from time to time, because we have several to choose from.
