Why does water remain in the washing machine after washing? Let's imagine such a situation, you heard a sound alert from your washing machine, which means that the wash is finished, approached it, opened the hatch, took out the laundry, and suddenly found that there was water left in the powder tray or sealing collar. Or even worse, the washing machine finished washing, but did not completely drain the water from the drum, and as a result, the door remained blocked.
What should be done in such cases?
If water remains in the detergent and rinse aid tray in the washing machine.
If you notice small amounts of water left in the compartment of the dispenser designed for air conditioner, then it is not worth raising the alarm, this is permissible. But if water in significant portions remains in the powder or rinse aid compartments, then the necessary measures will have to be taken.
To do this, we will find out the reasons why water remains in the washing machine:
- The detergent drawer has not been looked after enough. It can be concluded that in this case it is necessary to service the tray more often. Take it out and rinse thoroughly.
- Wrong installation of the washing machine. Probably your washer is not level, relative to the horizontal plane. Correct installation must be made.
- Are you sure about the quality of the detergents you use? Perhaps the water in the washing machine after washing remains due to the poor quality of the powder or conditioner? Try replacing these products.
- Have you overdone the proportions? It may turn out that you filled up more powder than expected. He could clog the drain channels. We recommend using measuring cups.
- The water pressure may be insufficient. Check if you have fully opened the water supply valve. If so, then most likely the problem is in the public water supply, contact the management company.
