Possible Causes

Drain hose installed too low, No high loop or air break, Incorrect connection to waste, Overlong hose creating siphon effect

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before moving the appliance.

  • Check hose routing: Ensure the Maidaid drain hose rises to the recommended height behind the machine before descending to the waste connection.
  • Create high loop: Secure the hose high under the worktop using clips or brackets to prevent siphoning.
  • Verify waste connection: Connect the hose to a proper standpipe or sink trap spigot as per Maidaid installation instructions.
  • Shorten excess hose: If the hose is excessively long, trim to an appropriate length to reduce siphon risk.
