Whirlpool Ice and Freezer Features
How Whirlpool Ice Makers and Freezers Work
Whirlpool's standalone ice makers circulate water over a freezing plate, release the ice sheet onto a cutter grid, drain the mineral-laden water each cycle, and store cubes in an unrefrigerated bin where some melting is normal.

Defrost water leaves through a defrost drain at the bottom back of the freezer, which can clog and let water puddle and leak past the bottom door seal. Source: Whirlpool - Why Is My Refrigerator Leaking Water?
