Whirlpool Ultraease - dripping

[N3FOL]

My 7 year old Whirlpool water dispenser (UltraEase) is dripping water. It still gives me great tasting water, but I would like to stop the dripping of the water. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Repair?

Does anyone know how to stop the dripping on my water dispenser? Please help.

Suggestion

Hi,

This may or may not help but have you tried turning the water pressure down just a touch? There should be a valve near on your water line. I suggest this because I had a dripping sink once and I thought I was going to have to call a plumber and someone suggested this to me and it worked. Other than that I would suggest calling a service tech out but that's going to cost.

Hope this helps.

H2O Pressure

Roxanne,

Thanks for the tip. I turned the water valve coming in the house a tad to the left and it seems to work. Two days ago, the dripping slowed down quite a bit. It must have been last week that our neighborhood probably had a momentary increase of H2O pressure the in area...just my speculation.

Right now, I do not have any drips from the water dispenser. I also told my kids to be a little gentle on the fridge everytime they want some clear sparkling water .

Regards.
