Dryer leaks water onto the floor during or after a cycle (condenser and heat pump models).
Safety Warning

Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the dryer and mop up any standing water to avoid slipping.
Checks:
- Ensure the water tank is fully inserted and not overfilled; empty it completely.
- Remove and clean the condenser; flush out lint and debris.
- Inspect the drain channel from the condenser to the pump or tank for blockages.
- Check internal hoses for cracks or loose connections; refit or replace as needed.
After reassembly, run a short cycle and monitor for leaks. Persistent leaks may indicate a cracked pump housing or internal tray that requires part replacement.
