Possible Causes

Blocked condenser drain channel, Loose or cracked condensate hose, Overfilled or mis-seated water tank, Cracked pump housing

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

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

  • Check water tank: Remove, empty, and reseat the water tank fully. Ensure it is not cracked.
  • Clean drain channel: Remove the condenser and inspect the drain channel beneath it. Clear lint and debris so water can flow freely to the pump.
  • Inspect hoses: Access the internal condensate hoses and check for splits, loose clamps, or disconnections. Replace damaged hoses.
  • Examine pump housing: Look for cracks or leaks around the condensate pump. Replace the pump assembly if leaking.
  • Test for leaks: Run a short cycle and observe the base area. If leaks persist, further disassembly or professional service may be required.
