Appliance leaks seldom look dramatic at first. A dripping fitting or a worn washer hose can add water to the floor for days, and the damage lands in the places nobody looks. A quick look behind the machine now and then catches many of them.

Dishwasher leaks move under cabinets, washer leaks climb the wall behind the machine and refrigerator supply leaks run beneath flooring. Meters and thermal images follow each path without opening more than needed. Thermal images show cooler wet zones on a warm wall.
- Cabinet bases checked from the front
- Wall behind the washer read with meters
- Flooring edges tested for dampness
Stopping the leak first
The appliance is unplugged, its shutoff valve is closed and the machine is pulled out so its hose and fittings can be inspected. Replacing a worn hose is cheap compared with repeated water damage.
