How can we fix drain problem ?

What I did was purchases some tubing from home depot and I drain the AC unit outside the door. My unit uses a sliding door so I was able to route the tubing on a downward slope.

I put the unit on a small platform (4" high) and used a cheap furnace moisture pump and some tubing to force the water out. There were shallow condensation pumps available but I didn't think they were worth the extra cost. Be careful with the amount of tension on the tubing, I broke my drain because I constantly move the thing depending on how I am using and where I am in the room. (my office and gym are one in the same plus some times you just want a fan blowing on you) I used a little marine repair putty to fix it and haven't had a problem

Yes call in the professionals - Bio-clean works great in drains but this is entirely different issue.

Either decrease the flow/suction on the drain or increase the suction on the G3; or better do a little of both. I have had to fine tune mine so it will flow through drain adequately and still move over it. If you have to choose one over the other, decrease the drain more--to much suction through the G3 will wear out the diaphram prematurely. 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.

I would imagine you need to run a drainage pump to the drain hole or use a water pump to drain it. It is as hard as a pond form that you put in the ground.

I have the same issue. I think it is some flaw in the design of the way the bowl and drain connect through the counter top. I have tried several ways to correct the problem, but no luck.

First thing I'd try to end the siphoning is to elevate the washer's drain hose. If the washer's drain hose is shoved deep into your home drain pipe, pull most of the drain hose out of the drain pipe and anchor it in that position. The added height should correct the problem.

Sorry Kim, there is no way to fix it other than to buy a whole new faucet. With washer less faucets, when they start dripping, it means they're worn out.

Any generic drain will work. Home improvement centers have kits for around 10 dollars. While you're there pick up some plumbers putty.

Use the "Upper Drain Port" in the middle of the back of the unit. See my review dated 7/22/2014 for list of inexpensive parts to hook up a drain hose.

Keep a little water in it all the time. The only time I totally drain mine is to clean it.

Sounds like you will need to purchase a special tool to make the job go smoothly, and that is a simple type of wrench that drops down into the drain so it can be unscrewed. Take the picture, print it and go to a big box store like HD and show it to them. It should be about $10. Get your plumbers putty while there.

Ed there is a drain plug on the front of the tank at the very bottom. I believe a garden hose would connect to the drain. The threads look like garden hose threads. I can check if you would like
