Possible Causes

Blocked internal drain channel, Drain hose installed with upward loop, Drain pump not operating, Ice blocking drain opening

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before clearing drains.

  • Clear visible ice: Remove ice from around the drain opening in the bin or sump. Use warm (not hot) water to melt blockages.
  • Flush internal drain: Pour warm water into the drain opening and observe flow at the drain hose outlet. If slow, disconnect the hose and flush it thoroughly.
  • Check hose routing: Ensure the drain hose slopes continuously downward to the drain and does not have high loops that trap water.
  • Verify drain pump operation: If your Gram model uses a drain pump, listen for it during the drain phase. Replace the drain pump if it does not run or pump effectively.
