    The title says it all really, there's no way I'll be able to defrost the fridge without somehow managing to attach a pipe fed through the van floor at the back of the fridge. Am I missing something? Just leave the drain pipe(s) bunged and mop it out as it thaws?
    Fridge is waeco CR50

    I'm spoiled, I bought a massive self-defrosting Leibherr fridge 15-20 years ago, plugged it in and never did another thing to it!
    I'm not used to maintaining a fridge so was hoping I could at least drain the thing through the floor. I'll investigate further or just never turn it off. :)
