Why is water collected in the washing machine?

Almost all washing machines are equipped with a leakage protection function. This is done so that the water from the drum can not flow out, and thus does not cause a flood. All without exception, modern washing machines are equipped with systems with check valves that prevent water from entering the washing machine when not in use.

Despite all the precautions, the water in the drum of the styralka can still appear by itself, which means that first of all it is necessary to determine the source of water ingress in the switched off washing machine.

To do this, it is necessary to analyze the water in the tank:

  • If the water is dirty and has a specific smell of sewage, then there is an incorrect connection of the washing machine to the sewer.
  • If the water is clean and has no smell, then it got into the stylalka from the aqueduct.

Summarizing the above, you can name the main reasons for the appearance of water in the washing machine:

  • Incorrect connection of the unit or problems with sewerage.
  • High water drainage level.
  • There is a clog, both in the sewage system and in the device itself.

Let's consider concrete cases when in the washing machine water is collected and we will design ways of the decision of problems.

Situation # 1

The problem lies in the fact that a few days after washing, water appears in the tank of the unit.

To solve this fault, turn off the water supply tap:

  1. If the water still appears, the problem is with the wrong water drainage system. Often, sewage falls into the styralka due to improperly connected drainage, or rather because of the unsuccessful position of the drain hose. Therefore, refer to the manufacturer's instructions and recommendations, if necessary, correct the connection of the unit. In the event that everything is properly connected, the source of the problem may be a blockage in the pipe, and water draining into the sewer accumulates inside the machine without finding an outlet and climbing the hose. The solution is simple - remove the blockage.
  2. If the water has not ceased to appear, then alas, it is necessary to disassemble the unit, as there is a possibility of a breakdown of the gate input tap. The causes of the problem can be:
    • Low water quality, in which sand and small pebbles are present. The result is that the valve clogs and stops functioning normally.
    • Valve wear. Only the replacement of the valve can correct the situation.
    • Breakage of any other element of the styrler or wiring, which causes a short circuit, and the generated current starts the valve. To solve the problem, it is necessary to find the faulty element and repair it.

Important! If you are able to repair the unit yourself, then proceed, if not, then use a simpler solution: shut off the water tap after each wash.

Situation # 2

Another manifestation of how water appears in the washing machine - immediately after washing it remains inside the tank.

To solve the problem of such a plan, it is necessary to check the drain filter located at the very floor behind the large decorative lid. In order to do this and, if necessary, clean it of dirt, proceed as follows:

  1. Drain manually with water from the hose, otherwise - the water will pour directly to the floor.
  2. Remove the panel.
  3. Clean the filter of dirt and small debris.
  4. Inspect the pump behind the filter and if it is clogged, it must also be cleaned.
  5. Clean the filter in place.

Situation # 3

Another option of how water is collected in a washing machine is the most difficult. In this situation, it does not merge at the end of the cycle.

If the stylalka still tries to drain the fluid and is still buzzing, it most likely requires a replacement or repair of the pump. To solve this problem, call the master - with their own hands without the relevant experience, you can not cope.

Situation # 4

Less difficult situation - the water is drained from the car, but not completely.

If you have such a problem, it's likely that your pump has become less efficient, or you have problems with the water level sensor.

Important! You can check the operation of the pump yourself, by placing the drain hose below the existing level.

We hope that our advice and recommendations will help you diagnose the washing machine and identify the causes of the problem. If you doubt your abilities, then contact a specialist who will quickly and accurately fix the device. But first try to conduct an investigation and repair yourself, so as not to waste money and time wasted.
