Why is my washing machine stuck on draining?

• <div><p>If the drain pump on your washing machine is continuously draining, it could be that the control board is damaged and requires repair, or there’s a clogged or kinked drain hose. If you can’t locate the problem, you’ll want to have a plumber or appliance repair expert come take a look.</p></div>

Q: What are common types of drain issues?

• <div><p>Common drain issues include slow-running drains, whether in a sink or shower, clogged drains, a bad smell, and water backing up into a sink, shower, or bathtub. Causes range from hair, grease, roots, or toilet paper clogging the drainpipes to flooding outside the home, which prevents sewer lines from draining properly. </p></div>

Q: My downspout isn’t draining properly, and I have overflowing gutters. What should I do?

• <div><p>You may have a clogged gutter. Downspouts can also clog if your gutter collects too much debris. Hire <a href="https://www.angi.com/companylist/gutter-cleaning.htm">a professional gutter cleaner</a>, and if you still have problems, install a gutter guard (which prevents debris from entering your gutter system) and a downspout extension (which helps drain water further away from your foundation, so it doesn't pool near your house). Follow these <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tools-keep-gutter-downspouts-clean.htm">tips to keep your gutter downspouts clean</a>.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to snake a drain?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-snake-a-drain.htm">Snaking a drain</a> can take as little as a <b>few minutes</b> for small, simple clogs, <b>up to two hours</b> or more for tough clogs located further down the drain line. For tougher clogs, a professional drain cleaner can likely get the job done much more quickly because they have the necessary tools and expertise. However, your drain cleaning pro might not be able to give you a firm time estimate until inspecting the clog and its surrounding plumbing.</p></div>

Q: How often should I flush my AC drain line?

• <div><p>You should flush your AC drain line once every three months to keep it clear of debris and buildup. Keeping your AC drain line clean prevents clogs, backups, mold growth, and extra wear on your AC unit. If you live in a humid area or have several furry pets, up your cleaning schedule to once a month.</p></div>
