Water isn't draining properly

If water is backing up or draining slowly at the Mini, work through these checks.

  • Check for kinks in the drain line.
  • Ensure proper slope (minimum 1/4" per foot).
  • Verify the unit is properly seated and sealed.
  • Check for clogs downstream from the unit.
  • Use the maintenance flush port to clear any blockage at the unit.
  • When clearing the line with air, check for a P-trap in the system. After the air flush, refill the P-trap with water to restore the water seal.
