Is the drain hose hanging I've the sink high enough? (Once you get it working, consider buying a lint trap to zip tie around the end of the drain hose. You'll be surprised at how much lint collects. Not the best for general plumbing.) Good luck!!

NoIt should drain automatically. I have 2. One drains fine and the other has a mind of its own. Last year Haier suggested elevating the front by maybe a quarter inch . I have both set that way. One works and the other doesn't.

Try lowering the pump; if the pump is too close to the drain, it will not pump. Hope this helps. Feel free to ask me further questions.

It will only drain one way at a time. You must manually turn to drain whichever line you want

What I would do is take the drain plug to the hardware store and ask them. I have had trouble with leakage on some of my rain barrels at the spigot sight. I will never put in another spigot again, because of the leakage. I dip into the top or use a water pump.

This drain did not work in my sink without overflow. I had a leak under the sink. I went to Lowes to get another drain.

Mine doesn't leak, maybe put some pipe tape around the threads see if that works

Hi Lakiesha, It drains because there is a drain slot on the side. That hole needs to stay over the edge of the sink otherwise the water runs out on the counter. The inside needs to be cleaned out occasionally but that's easy. Of many, many drainers I've tried this is the best!

Open the door and make sure that the drain pan in the bottom is not full. the machine sweats a lot and I had to empty the pan about every 3 days before mine completely broke down after 3 months of use! Good luck with yours.

I just wiggle it and move it and pull hard. So far that has worked for me just fine. Twist it around. In my drain it can feel stuck but with some wiggling and moving it comes out. Good luck!

This unit comes with poor instruction especially in regard to the valve that is used to drain the unit. After 3 hours you tank should almost be full. Do you hear water going down the drain. If so, in my opinion, you have not closed the drainage valve, thus not filtered water is being produced, it is all going down your drain. I am assuming you have the valve on top of the tank in the open position, and all the other lines are connected correctly. If so, then you problem is that you drain vale located some where on the unit that has the 3 cartiarages is open, and needs to be closed for water to collect in the tank. Hope that helps.

Was it working fine before this? You mean up to the top?? Is it possible that the salt has all clumped together to create a kind of dam? Or a drain tube is clogged? I've gotten help for things like this from the 800 number in the booklet.

I have never had this problem with this Drain. I would suggest making sure it is tightened down enough so that it is flush with the bottom of the bowl

I found I had to tighten the hose on the outlet, which is a pain where it is located, to keep it running smooth. Use a wrench, but no so tight you break anything. We also have to keep the hose situated so it drains down the whole length of the hose, no rises as it goes towards the open end. Hope this helps

Mark, This seems to be a common problem with these units. I don't have mine anymore because Consumer Reports Took away their recommendation because some of them were catching on fire. When I did have it, I solved the drain hose issue by gluing in a stopper with silicone glue. I can't remember exactly where the stopper went, but some close examination should allow you to figure out where to put the stopper. It was a small drain hole. Check on google re the fire issue. You may want to try to return it if you can. I got a Frigidare unit which is working fine.

it's never happened to me but you might want to fill it with CLR or vinegar then invert it so the liquid doesn't come out the drain holes. Let it sit like that for 1/2hour. That usually works for other hard water deposits.
