Gibson Dryer leaking water
If your Gibson dryer is leaking water, start with the most likely cause: a cracked or loose fill hose. Inspect the hose for small cracks or holes and make sure it is firmly attached to the inlet valve; replace the hose and fit new rubber washers for a water tight seal if needed. If the leak is inside the drum, the nozzle that sprays the hot mist is the next suspect—check it for visible damage and replace a cracked nozzle. Also rule out other sources: a non-steam dryer is not plumbed for water, so look for external leaks nearby. If the leak traces to the steam system, inspect the steam generator housing for cracks, and tighten any loose hose connectors. Finally, if water is coming from inside the cabinet, the water inlet valve could be cracked and will need replacement. You can enter your model number on RepairClinic.com to pull up the exact replacement fill hoses, nozzles, steam generators, inlet valves, and washers that fit your Gibson dryer.
01 - Gibson 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.

02 - Gibson Dryer Nozzle
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.
Highly Likely
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.
Common
04 - Gibson Dryer Steam Generator
A water leak inside the dryer drum may be caused by a faulty or damaged steam generator, the component that converts the incoming water supply to steam. Inspect the steam generator for any cracks in the housing and replace if visibly damaged.
Common
05 - Loose hose connector
Check and tighten hose connections. Install new rubber washers if needed.
Common
06 - Gibson Dryer Water Inlet Valve
A water leak that is coming from inside the dryer cabinet is likely caused by a damaged water inlet valve. Inspect the valve for any cracks in the housing and confirm the valve hoses are secured firmly to the valve and are in good condition. If the inlet valve's housing is cracked or damaged, the component should be replaced with a new one.
