Yes, operating a residential washing machine that is out of balance and not properly leveled can frequently cause water leaks. If the appliance feet are uneven, the inner drum tilts during high-speed spinning, forcing water to splash over the top edges of the outer tub or bypass the rubber door boot seal on front-loaders. Additionally, an unlevel machine suffers from violent vibrations that loosen internal hose clamps and fittings. You can troubleshoot balance easily by placing a bubble level on top of the cabinet. You can verify that your corrective action is successful when adjusting the corner leveling legs until the bubble is centered eliminates excessive shaking and stops all water leakage caused by uneven positioning.
