Tips if your washer dryer combination doesn't drain water
When your washer dryer combination doesn't drain water, you can follow the tips below:
- Tip 1. Check the drain hose
- Tip 2. Clean the drain filter
- Tip 3. Unclog the drain
- Tip 4. Unplug the connector
- Tip 5. Contact the supplier
Tip 1: check the drain hose
There might be a problem with the drain hose. Make sure there are no kinks in the drain hose, so they don't block the water. Also look inside the drain hose to see if it's clogged. In addition, it's important that the drain hose isn't higher than 1m above the washer dryer combination. Otherwise, the machine can't pump the water up.
Tip 2: clean the drain filter
With most washer dryer combinations, you can find the filter on the bottom right of the machine behind a hatch. Can't you find it? Check the manual of the washer dryer combination. Put a bucket under the filter hatch to collect the water. Drain the filter with a tube or by opening it. Check if something is stuck inside and remove this if it's the case. Lastly, clean the filter under the faucet and clean the filter pocket with a wet towel. Put the filter back into the machine and start a 'Drain and spin' cycle.
Tip 3: unclog the drain
If cleaning the filter doesn't help, the drain might be clogged. The blockage can be located in different areas of the drain hose. That's why you should rinse the nearest sink and flush the nearest toilet first. Isn't this working? It's a good idea to call a plumber. Do they flush? You can easily unclog the hose with one of the tips in this article.
Tip 4: unplug the connector
Maybe the water doesn't drain because of a technical error. Did you try everything we've listed so far, and does it still not work? Unplug the connector from the socket and wait about 30 minutes. Connect the washer dryer combination again and start a 'Spin and drain' cycle.
Tip 5: contact a technician
Don't any of these tips work? The drain pump may be broken. Don't worry, a technician can solve the problem.
