Fridge Maintenance
I have the 4-door Norcold fridge/freezer which I'm very happy with. I defrost the freezer as needed. The fins in the fridge periodically defrost themselves with the water dripping into a pan that runs the width of the fridge and has a drain at one end. I ASSUME it has a drain tube connected to it. Because I full time and the fridge never gets shut down, I would think the drain tube is constantly wet.
Does anyone ever pour a little bleach in the tray so mold does not form in the drain line ?
Where does the drain hose go ? Is it visible if I crawl under the fiver ? The fridge is in a slide out.
I lived in Florida for almost 20 years and we were taught to pour bleach down the AC condensate drain monthly to keep mold from forming in the drain and clogging it. The drains actually had a lift off cap for that purpose. I even knew someone who had a problem because they didn't follow this procedure.
I spend 5-6 months in Florida during the winter so humidity is still an enemy.
Thanks for the help !
