Possible Causes

Loose or cracked water inlet hose, Leaking internal hose connection, Cracked water reservoir, Overfilling due to faulty inlet valve

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit and shut off water supply immediately to prevent electrical hazards and water damage.

  • Identify leak source: Dry the exterior, then remove the rear or side panels and inspect while slowly adding water to the reservoir (with power still off).
  • Check hoses and clamps: Tighten any loose hose clamps and replace cracked or brittle hoses.
  • Inspect reservoir: Look for hairline cracks or seams leaking. Replace the reservoir if damaged.
  • Test inlet valve: For plumbed models, ensure the inlet valve fully closes when the unit is off. Replace the valve if it drips continuously.
  • Dry thoroughly: Before reassembly, dry all internal areas to avoid corrosion or mold.
