Dehumidifier bucket fills too quickly or overflows even with hose attached

Safety: Unplug the unit and empty the bucket before working on the drain.

Steps to correct continuous drain issues:

• Verify hose routing: Ensure the drain hose runs downhill from the dehumidifier to the drain with no upward loops.
• Check hose length: Avoid excessively long hoses that can trap water and reduce flow.
• Clear clogs: Disconnect the hose and flush it with water to remove any blockage. Inspect the drain outlet on the unit for debris.
• Secure connection: Reattach the hose firmly to the drain outlet. Use a hose clamp if necessary to prevent leaks.
• Test flow: Pour a small amount of water into the internal drain pan (if accessible) and confirm it exits through the hose.
