Washing machine leaking or not draining? Check the drain hose

The drain hose is often blamed last, but it causes plenty of leaks and slow drains. A hose that has split near the clamp, worn through where it rubs on the cabinet or perished from hot water can drip during the spin cycle and leave water under the machine. Kinks behind the machine or a blockage of lint and coins will slow draining, which can leave clothes wet or bring up a drain fault on the display. If the pump runs but water empties slowly, pull the machine out and check the hose along its full length. A new hose of the right length avoids kinks and sags.

Fitting the new drain hose

Unplug the washing machine and turn off both taps. Put a towel and a shallow tray down, as water will be sitting in the old hose. Note how the hose is routed and clipped inside the cabinet, then release the clamp at the pump end. Fit the new hose with the clamp tight, refit any guides, and run a rinse and spin to check for leaks.

Questions about this part

Can I use a longer hose than 2370mm?

It's best to stay with the length your machine was designed for. A much longer run makes the pump work harder and can slow draining. If you need extra reach, ask us through the parts enquiry form before buying an extension.
