This drain hose carries water away from your appliance during draining to help prevent backups and leaks. Replace a cracked, clogged, or kinked hose to restore reliable water removal and protect surrounding floors and cabinets. What it does:
- Directs drain water from the outlet or pump to the designated discharge point
- Maintains proper flow; kinks or blockages can cause slow or no draining
- Helps prevent leaks from splits, pinholes, or loose connections
- Common signs: standing water, water under/around the unit, drain-related error codes, or odors
What's included:
Install notes:
- Disconnect power and shut off water supply before servicing
- Place towels or a shallow pan to catch residual water when removing the old hose
- Note the original routing; seat connections fully, secure with clamps, and avoid sharp bends or kinks
- Run a brief drain/rinse and check all joints for leaks

My Kenmore (frigidaire) upright freezer was leaking water onto the floor the drain had frozen over and water was leaking around the coil pipe upon defrosting it we noticed the drain hose cracked Kevin C. • Roswell , GA • February 13, 2019
Ordered a replacement Drain Hose. $9.95 shipping seems high for a $5.55 part but it was delivered next day. This was better than promised!!! I pulled of the old hose and replaced it with the new. No tools required. Working like a charm.
