Washer Not Draining in San Francisco? How We Fixed a GE with a Stubborn Filter Blockage

Recently, a homeowner in San Francisco contacted Triton HVAC & Appliance Repair for help with a GE washer that refused to drain. Our experienced technician arrived and began a thorough diagnostic. The drain pump wasn’t functioning, and the filter was stuck in place.

Upon carefully working to remove the filter, it became apparent that something was lodged inside. The culprit turned out to be a piece of laundry—an undergarment—that had become tightly wedged in the filter area and created a complete blockage.

Once the offending item was removed, the technician performed a series of checks to ensure the system was clear and the pump was operational. The washer was quickly restored to proper working order, much to the customer’s relief.
