Dehumidifier continuous drain feature does not work; water still fills the bucket instead of draining through the hose.

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

Steps:

• Verify hose connection: Remove and firmly reconnect the drain hose to the continuous drain outlet, ensuring a tight fit.
• Check hose routing: Ensure the hose runs downward from the unit to the drain with no upward loops or kinks.
• Clear drain port: Use a small brush or pipe cleaner to clear any debris from the internal drain outlet.
• Test flow: Pour a small amount of water into the drain tray (if accessible) and confirm it exits through the hose.

Note: Use a smooth‑bore hose of the recommended diameter; corrugated hoses can trap debris and reduce flow.
