DG505, DG500 Spoiler box does not drain and freezes

Waiting to hear back from the factory for a mod or some solution besides a hangar or wing covers. Doesn't water get in also flying through storms and perhaps freeze as you go high enough? Are all 500 and 505' the same? Not a single of the current German gliders built later than 1980 has a drain hole in the spoiler box. Bye Andreas
