Locate the first wet area
Describe the front, rear or tank area and whether a drain hose is already fitted. Mention recent movement or pipework changes.
Keep connections intact
Do not remove panels or disconnect a full hose for a photograph. An engineer can assess the relevant route and access; sealed heat-pump refrigerant work remains excluded.
A useful distinction
A drain hose can leak at a connection outside the dryer, while water from a collection system may emerge elsewhere. A whole-installation view helps distinguish those routes without opening the appliance.
