Why Is My Beko Tumble Dryer Leaking Water?
A tumble dryer leaking water is almost always a condenser dryer. Vented dryers do not retain water, so a leak from a vented dryer usually indicates a plumbing issue nearby. On condenser dryers, the most common cause is an overfull water tank or a blocked condenser.
Common Causes
Water tank full or not seated correctly (condenser dryers)
If the water collection tank is full, water will overflow and leak. If the tank is not seated correctly, water can escape. The tank should be emptied after every cycle.
Blocked condenser (condenser dryers)
A blocked condenser can prevent water from draining correctly into the collection tank, causing it to overflow inside the machine and leak out.
Blocked or kinked drain hose (if plumbed in)
If the dryer is plumbed into a drain, a blocked or kinked drain hose can cause water to back up and leak.
Damaged door seal
A worn or damaged door seal can allow moisture to escape from the drum area.
Checks To Try Before Calling An Engineer
Empty the water tank (condenser dryers)
Remove the water collection tank, empty it and refit it securely. Check it is seated correctly in its housing.
Clean the condenser (condenser dryers)
Remove and rinse the condenser unit thoroughly under running water.
Check the drain hose (if plumbed in)
Ensure the drain hose is not kinked or blocked.
Check the door seal
Inspect the door seal for damage or debris.
