Baumatic / Washer dryer / BR8
A leak happens only on drying
Stop use when a leak occurs during drying, even if washing appears normal. Describe where water first appears and how far the drying programme has progressed. Avoid moving the machine or disconnecting pipework. Combined appliances manage water and moisture in model-specific ways, so the timing helps prepare an appropriate inspection.
Compare this observation: washing works but drying does not
Keep the washing result and drying result separate in your description. Say whether the drying phase begins, whether the clothes become warm and how the programme finishes. Include the selected combined cycle and approximate load. The drying arrangement belongs to the exact washer-dryer model; it should not be inferred from a separate dryer.
The fitting is behind a furniture panel.
Describe the panel, plinth and visible surroundings. Leave the appliance fitted; photographs and an access description are enough to begin.

A useful question for the enquiry
Does “a leak happens only on drying” establish the failed part?
No. Describe that observation separately from “washing works but drying does not”. Explain whether they began together or at different times, and include the fitting detail: the fitting is behind a furniture panel. The inspection can then consider the symptoms and safe access together.
