How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the dryer and mop up any standing water to prevent slipping.

  • Check water container: Remove and empty the condensate tank. Inspect for cracks and ensure it seats properly when reinstalled.
  • Clean condenser: Remove the condenser unit and rinse thoroughly to clear lint that can cause overflow.
