Floor Under Fridge Looks Scorched

It looks like there s a wave in the flooring.

Floor under fridge looks scorched.

Push a small plastic tube or a pipe cleaner through the tubes. I just noticed that in the center of the room there is a lift of the wood flooring. Pour a mild solution of soapy water and ammonia down the drain tube to kill bacteria. There has always been one dark spot that kind of looks like a burn mark as if someone placed something too hot on it.

Score around the burned area with a utility knife and remove it from the floor. Check the fridge s drain pan several times for excess water accumulation. I have a very old ge refrigerator causing burn mark on floor under compessor checked checked contol components found that the refrigerator goes into defrost cuts off all fans but compressor keeps running what are some suggestions to fix this problem. For a frozen waterline rather than a physical kink first turn off the water supply with the shut off valve.

One way to remove. The wood flooring looks to be completely intact to subfloor. Older models of refrigerators and sometimes newer ones have a plastic or metal catch basin located under the bottom of the fridge that excess water or fluids that get spilled inside the fridge. Now this spot has grown larger and there are two new spots about 3 to 4 inches across.

It s usually located behind the fridge or under the kitchen sink. A leak coming from the bottom of the fridge. Due to the added water you should check and empty as needed the drain pan 1 2 times per day over the next 2 3 days. Do to the increased floor height we had to get a new fridge.

2 lay the cutout piece over a new piece of linoleum either from remnants or a hidden area of the floor. Measure twice cut once. I went under the house and noticed that in the lifted area there s a support beam directly in that area. A faulty refrigerator might be to blame even if it doesn t have an ice maker or.

Locate the drain tubes at the rear of the refrigerator or freezer. We yanked out the appliances including the fridge when we replaced the yukky circa 1971 laminate with hardwoods in our kitchen. Leaks in the kitchen don t always come from the sink or dishwasher. We extended the floors under the dishwasher stove and the fridge.

My house is 25 years old. They are not moist and they are not soft. All the spots are are equal distance from each other in a line about 3 feet from each other.
