Dacor Refrigerator Leaking
Refrigerator Leaking is usually one of a small number of specific, repairable causes — here's what to check and when it's worth calling a professional.
Common Causes
A valve held open by deposit
Hard groundwater leaves mineral on the seat, and a valve that no longer closes fully weeps continuously rather than failing outright.
A clogged defrost drain
Melted frost backs up and overflows into the cabinet or onto the floor instead of draining away normally.
A worn or torn door gasket
Lets humid air in that condenses inside the cabinet or around the door frame.
Local conditions that matter here
Water here is not one thing. Valley groundwater runs 11 to 26 grains per gallon and the imported Sierra supply 4.5 to 9, both through the same utility, with the blend decided by well field and season. On the hard end that puts real mineral through an ice maker's fill valve and mould heater; five miles away it does not.
