Dehumidifier bucket fills too quickly or overflows even with a drain hose attached.

Safety: Turn off and unplug the unit before adjusting hoses.

Steps to correct continuous drain:

• Verify hose installation: Remove the bucket and confirm the hose is connected to the correct continuous drain port, not just inserted into the bucket.
• Ensure downward slope: The entire length of the hose must slope downward from the dehumidifier to the drain. Avoid loops or upward sections.
• Check for clogs: Disconnect the hose and run water through it to confirm it is clear.
• Inspect drain adapter: Some GE models use a plastic adapter at the drain outlet. Ensure it is seated and sealed properly. Replace the drain hose adapter if cracked.
• Test without hose: Temporarily remove the hose and operate with just the bucket. If the bucket fills normally without leaks, the issue is with the hose setup.
