The refrigerator theory sounds good, except he said it only leaks when the
faucet is turned on. On most faucets, I wouldn't know how to hook it up
like that, but for the moment I'll take his word for it. It's much too
small for a dishwasher drain line.
The one time I was tempted to do something like this was to send some water
to a floor drain. If a floor drain has a trap, for the trap to be
functional there must be water in it. If it never gets used, the water
will evaporate. Then you basically have an open pathway to whatever is at
the other end. I'm not saying that's what this is, though. All anyone can
really do is speculate... or peek around the wall and see what's there. I
think it's time to ask the super. Just tell him we've got to know!
