A customer in Palm Beach contacted ISB Electrical because their Haier washing machine was leaking water during the drain cycle. Water was appearing behind and underneath the washing machine, creating a risk of damage to the laundry floor and nearby cabinetry.
Washing machine leaks should always be inspected properly because the water can come from the inlet hose, drain hose, detergent dispenser, door seal, pump area or internal hose connections. In this case, the leak was not caused by an internal component failure.
The fault was caused by a damaged drain hose. The hose had been damaged by a mouse, allowing water to escape during the drain cycle.
When the washing machine started draining, water leaked from the damaged section of the hose instead of flowing correctly into the laundry waste connection. The washing machine itself was operating, but the damaged hose made it unsafe to continue using.
The damaged drain hose required replacement. After replacing the hose, the washing machine should be tested through a drain cycle to confirm water flows correctly into the waste outlet with no further leakage.
The customer was also advised to check the laundry area for possible pest entry points, as mouse damage can affect hoses, insulation and wiring around household appliances.
