Water appears on the floor beneath the dryer

A floor puddle needs to be distinguished from a full collection tank or a nearby appliance leak. The model's moisture-handling format matters.

Illustrative appliance scene; not an exact manufacturer model.

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.
