Blocked Drains Lincoln

As a homeowner in Lincolnshire, you may have encountered a common issue with your fridge - a clogged drain hole. This problem can cause water to accumulate, leading to mouldy smells and potentially damaging your appliance. In this article, we will provide you with a simple step-by-step guide on how to unblock a fridge drain hole.

The fridge drain hole is designed to allow water to flow out of the appliance and into the drainage system. However, over time, debris such as food particles, dust, and dirt can accumulate and block the hole. This can cause water to build up, leading to unpleasant smells and potentially damaging your fridge.

1. Turn off your fridge and freezer: Before you start, make sure to switch off your fridge and freezer to prevent any further water accumulation.
2. Locate the drain hole: The drain hole is usually located at the bottom of the fridge, near the front. It may be covered with a small grille or cap.
3. Remove any visible debris: Use a soft brush or cloth to remove any visible debris from the drain hole.
4. Use a pipe cleaner or drain snake: If the blockage is further down the drain, you may need to use a pipe cleaner or drain snake to remove the debris.
5. Clean the drain hole: Once you have removed the blockage, use a soft cloth and warm water to clean the drain hole.

• Regularly clean the drain hole to prevent debris from accumulating.
• Check your fridge's drainage system regularly to ensure it is working properly.
• Avoid pouring grease or food particles down the drain hole.
