# Common Causes and Solutions
Is your dishwasher not draining properly? Standing water at the bottom can be caused by a clogged drain filter, blocked drain hose, or a faulty drain pump.
First, check and clean the dishwasher filter to remove food particles and debris. Next, inspect the drain hose for kinks or blockages. If water still does not drain, the drain pump may need inspection or replacement.
Ignoring drainage problems can lead to unpleasant odours and poor cleaning results.
