Why Is My Washing Machine Not Draining?
Front load washing machines are known for being energy efficient, quiet, very gentle on clothes but one of the main complaints about them are the buildup of mold on the gasket. The design makes them susceptible to growing mold.
The gasket used to prevent leaks makes a perfect hiding place for mold. As opposed to the old design of the top load washers, it doesn’t have the seal when closed and it gives the drum time in between loads to dry out and mold isn’t an issue. Soap suds, fabric softeners, cold wash cycles all play a part in keeping the mold around.
If you’re pretty sure it’s the drain pump, you’ll need to call a professional out to check. It may be a good idea to remove the clothes and as much water as possible by hand before calling anyone out to work on the unit. This is where a good shop vac can save lots of time.
