Admiral Dryer leaking water

If your Admiral dryer is leaking water, the most likely culprit is a damaged fill hose or a loose connection at the hose that supplies the steam system; check the hose for cracks, holes, and secure fittings first since leaks coming from outside the cabinet usually trace back there. If the leak is inside the drum, a cracked or clogged steam nozzle is the next likely cause, followed by other external water sources if your model is not a steam dryer. A damaged steam generator housing can also drip into the drum, and loose hose connectors or failing water inlet valves are less common but still possible causes. Inspect visible hoses, nozzle and generator housing for cracks or mineral buildup, and tighten or replace parts as needed. To get the exact replacement fill hose, nozzle, steam generator or inlet valve for your model, enter your model number on RepairClinic.com and we’ll show parts that fit your dryer.

01 - Admiral Dryer Fill Hose

A water leak that is coming from outside the dryer cabinet may be caused by a damaged fill hose. Inspect the hose for small cracks or holes and confirm the hose is secured firmly to the inlet valve. A damaged hose will need to be replaced with a new one. If needed, install new rubber washers at the ends of the hose for a water tight seal.

A water leak inside the dryer drum may be caused by a faulty nozzle, the component used to spray the hot mist. Inspect the nozzle for any cracks or signs of visible damage and replace the old nozzle with a new one if required.

03 - Check for other sources of leaks

A non steam dryer is not connected to water and will not cause a leak. Look for other sources of leaks.
