GE WR01F01884 Refrigerator Drain Tube – Stops Water Pooling, Leaks & Ice Buildup Under Crisper

A cracked, clogged, or misaligned defrost drain tube doesn't just leave a puddle — it leads to ice buildup under the crisper drawers, mold growth in the drain channel, water leaking onto your kitchen floor, and eventually a blocked drain that forces defrost water to overflow into the fresh food compartment. The WR01F01884 is the genuine OEM GE drain tube that routes defrost meltwater safely from the evaporator pan to the drain without pooling or overflow.

⚠️ Symptoms of a Failed or Blocked Drain Tube

• Water pooling under or inside crisper drawers
• Ice sheet forming on the floor of the fresh food compartment
• Water leaking from the refrigerator onto the kitchen floor
• Musty or mold smell coming from inside the fridge
• Visible crack, kink, or disconnection in the existing drain tube
• Drain pan under the fridge overflowing or staying dry (tube bypassing it)
