π¨ Washer Leaking? Start With These Checks π€
Water on the laundry-room floor can be scary, but many leaks come from a few common, fixable issues like loose or cracked hoses, a worn door seal, a clogged detergent drawer, or a drain pump or filter problem.π§
Before calling for service, turn off the hot and cold water supply valves behind the washer and unplug the unit. Inspect inlet hoses at the wall and washer for tightness, cracks, or missing washers, and check the door gasket on front-loaders for tears or debris while cleaning the detergent drawer.
