Refrigerator Drain Hole Unclogging Tools: Syringe Sets, Brushes and Deodorizer Box Options

You unplug the fridge, slide the tube into the drain hole and the melted ice runs out

When the drain hole at the back of the fridge clogs, you need tools sized for it. This set brings a large syringe that pushes hot water through a white tube, a brush for the drain pipe, a drain plug with a pin and an ice scraper, packed in a bag.

Sixteen options are offered: sets of 2, 4, 5 or 6 pieces, single brushes in spring (1.5, 2 and 3 m) or steel (1, 1.5, 2, 3 and 6 m), a 3 piece brush set with a straw brush, an anti-clog rod, an ice scraper and a deodorizer box.

Key Benefits

• Hot water through a syringe A large syringe and a flexible white tube carry hot water into the drain hole until the ice melts and the water starts to flow.
• A brush for the drain pipe The bent end of the brush goes into the bottom of the drain hole, and you scrub the inside of the pipe back and forth.
• A drain plug with a pin After the flush, a plug fits into the drain hole to keep debris from entering.
• A ring pull hook The anti-clog rod has a circular pull ring, so your thumb can push and pull it without letting it slip.
• Brush lengths from 1 m to 6 m Spring brushes in 1.5, 2 and 3 m and steel brushes in 1, 1.5, 2, 3 and 6 m, for short drain lines and long ones.
• A deodorizer box for the fridge A white vented plastic box that sits inside the fridge, available on its own or in the 6 piece set.

Best for: People whose fridge or freezer has a blocked drain hole and who want to clear it at home with simple tools.

Why It Works

A drain hole clogs slowly and quietly. Tools made for it turn the job into four short steps: unplug, flush with hot water, scrub the pipe and plug the hole.
