Ways to Drain Out the Washing Machine Manually

1. Bail Out the Water Using a Bucket

 This is the easiest and hence the most common way to drain out the water from your washing machine. However, it is time-consuming, tedious, and hard on your back, which makes the method inefficient.

2. Drain Out the Water Using a Hose

The other and comparatively efficient way to drain out water from the washing machine is draining it out using a hose. The process requires a bucket, a screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, and a clamp. Also, remember to have a sponge or towel in case the water spills.  

The draining of water using a hose involves the following steps-

• Start by making sure that the power is turned off. It is mandatory to ensure that the washer does not have any source of power attached to it, be it the circuit breaker and fuse box or hot and cold water connections to the washing machine.
• Check for the condition of the drain hose of your washing machine, at its backside. Chances are that the drain hose is bent or has a kink, resulting in blocking the water flow. So the problem can be resolved by simply straightening the pipe.
• In case the hose is not bent and does not have a kink, remove it from the washer’s drain, or unscrew the hose with a clamp attached, if required. Keep the hose a level higher than the tub to empty the water. Then use the hose manually to drain out the water
• If the water is still not draining, then the filter is at fault. Ensure you clear it before proceeding further, to remove the blockages (if any) in the filter.
• Once the water has fully drained out, check the drain hose for any debris, clothing, or soap blockages. This can be done by loosening up the clamp and connecting the hose to the bottom of the tub. This would make it more accessible for a closer inspection.
• If the blockages are still not visible it is time to reach out to a professional washing machine repair near you, to clear the deeper clogs.
• You can also search for any blockages in the washer’s drain pump, that might have resulted from a broken belt or impeller (if you have a top-load machine), or a leak. The location of the drain pump differs according to the model and might require you to read the instruction manual for their exact determination. You are always free to reach out for professional help in case you are lazy or are short of time.
• Usually, the washer demonstrates an issue with the water pump with the help of an unusual sound of water leaking from the machine (at the time when it is used). If you can, try to replace the pump by yourself or simply reach out to a washing machine repair service provider.
• One other culprit for your problem might be the lid switch. The issue can be diagnosed by pressing the lid switch, to figure out if it clicks. If the switch does not click on being depressed, it represents the switch is broken and needs replacement.
