I have a leak on my LG True Steam dryer. Received a crazy excuse from LG: If the exhaust duct is restricted, humidity will not exhaust out very well. When the temperature inside the drum cools, remaining humidity will condense. Also check your water reservoir, empty it and leave it empty to see if the water continues to appear in the drum or outside the unit. I have a puddle of water the size of a pancake. I dont think it is condensation. Any ideas of how I can handle this...the warranty is no longer effective

    This is happening to my same model LG dryer except I just realized it when water was dripping down through our kitchen ceiling onto the table.

Why is water leaking from bottom of double stack fridgidaire washer/dryer combo?

Thank you for your post, friend!

From the information you have provided your Frigidaire laundry center is leaking water from the bottom after a day or so. It sounds like you have a slow leak and this could be in your drain line, drain pump, or gasket. I would advise you to review your gasket and drain hose to make sure there is no visible crack or wear that water could be leaking out of. If you do not see any apparent leaks it could be an issue internally and this is not a simply DIY job. You may need to request the assistance of a professional technician for proper disassembly of your laundry center. I hope this information has been helpful. -Matt

Ice forming on bottom of freezer with water leaking out from under

I'm guessing the drain from the freezer defrost pan (below the freezer coil) is clogged and overflowing into the bottom of the box. You'll have to turn off an defrost the freezer, then remove the sheet metal on the back to expose the coil. Try pouring some water into the drain pan and if it backs up, use a fine wire like a sewer snake to clean it out.

Drip water from bottom of dryer

Not sure what all you did already. But you may want to check your washer machine and see if it is spinning the clothes out. You may have problems with your washer machine. Loose belt, clogged up water pump. If your clothes are that wet and water is leaking from your dryer, the problem is not the dryer. Check your hose connection on your washer also.

My dryer is leaking from the bottom. service man said either the tube or the pan is cracked. tube seems ok, so is the pan replaceable or glueable. could there be another reason to look for leak. dryer has...

Open the bottom front panel. Remove the heat exchanger. Take notice to see if theres any water in that compartment. Reach your hand towards the back of that opening to see if there is water pooling back there. If theres water present, then your condensation pump needs to be replaced.
also double check the connection of the drain hose from the dryer to the drain.

My dryer is leaking water from the bottom of dryer

Check the vent coming out of the back of the dryer. Somewhere in the vent there is a blockage. If you clear the blockage you may solve the problem.

Dish drawer leaks Fisher Paykel

When water accumulates in the bottom it triggers an error code and it keeps running. There is a water sensor in the bottom. I pull out the bottom drawer, mop up the water and use a hair dryer to dry the water (the more you mop up the less you need the hair dryer). Be careful to not get any of the plastic too hot. Kill the power before messing with the unit. The first time I did this it took 20 minutes to dry out. I have gotten more proficient and it take about 5 minutes now.

I had a water leak which was due to the rinse agent cap not being completely sealed. Water leaked out of a small hole in the front (I'm guessing an air vent but don't know for sure) and flooded the bottom.

I also had a leak due to having too tall a dish in the drawer and the top not sealing. I currently have a leak on the top drawer of unknown origin, but the bottom drawer still works.
Hope this helps.

Washer is leaking water at bottom

You should look at the machine's bottom first- try to find out from where water leaking from. In most cases it is the pump.In such a case it should be replaced. Good luck!
