Customer Questions and Answers for Tub-To-Pump Hose (Washer Drain) by Lg

This tub-to-pump hose connects the washer's outer tub to the drain pump, carrying water out during the drain cycle. Replace it to resolve leaks or drain errors caused by cracks, splits, or internal blockages.

• Routes wash water from the outer tub to the drain pump
• Flexible bellows section helps prevent kinking and accommodates tub movement
• Failure signs: water leaking under the washer, slow/no draining, drain-related error codes, or visible cracks/soft spots
• Often needed after clamp corrosion, physical damage, or age-related deterioration

• Unplug the washer and turn off water supply; drain any remaining water from the tub/hoses
• Access location varies by model; remove panels as needed to reach the hose and clamps
• Use pliers to release spring clamps; note routing and clamp orientation before removal
• Seat the hose fully on fittings, secure clamps, and test with a short drain/rinse cycle to check for leaks
