Defrost water evaporating apparatus for a refrigerator. The apparatus has a plurality of bottom walls for separating a lower space from a refrigerating compartment, a base pan assembled to an underside of the refrigerator, a partition integrally formed at the base pan for partitioning the lower space into first and second space, a drain tube for guiding a defrost water into the first space, a condenser fixing structure for making the defrost water directly contact with a condenser, thereby evaporating the defrost water by a heat exchange with the condenser. The fixing structure has a couple of condenser fixing portions and an extending portion for increasing an actual heat exchange area of the condenser. By incorporating the apparatus with the refrigerator, the defrost water evaporating function is achieved by the base pan so that the uninsulated lower space of the refrigerator occupies a relatively small volume, and the defrost water collected in the lower space makes a direct contact with the condenser, thereby increasing a defrost water evaporating efficiency.
