Identifying whether a residential washing machine is developing a hidden water leak involves performing a systematic inspection and monitoring technique around the base of the appliance. Key signs of a leak include musty mildew odors in the laundry room, warped flooring or bubbling baseboards near the machine, damp patches on drywall in rooms adjacent to the laundry area, or intermittent puddles appearing on the floor after wash cycles. You can troubleshoot leak sources easily using the paper towel drying method. You can verify that you have successfully identified and resolved a leak when wiping all internal hoses, supply connections, and floor pans dry and running a test cycle leaves the paper towels completely dry and free of moisture.
