Hotpoint / Tumble dryer / BR7
A water-container warning persists
Explain whether the appliance collects water in a container or uses a connected drain. Note when the warning reappears and whether drying begins first. Keep hoses attached and leave internal water-handling parts alone. A container warning is an observation; it does not always establish that the container is simply full.
Compare this observation: an error appears only after running
Copy the displayed warning and record the approximate stage at which it appears. Include whether the clothes are still cold, warm and wet or nearly dry. There is no need to run the machine again solely to collect a code. The full model and existing observations help determine the next assessment.
Working room is restricted.
Mention the space around the equipment and anything blocking normal access. Do not drag a machine out, loosen a mounting or disconnect pipework to show the fault.
For the Chislehurst address
For Chislehurst, provide the complete BR7 postcode and describe the equipment location inside the property. Include any fitted furniture door or restricted access.
Read the identity, not just the badge.
Quote the complete model and serial or service number from a safely visible label. Similar product names can hide different components. If the label is concealed, leave the appliance in place and tell us the model is unknown.

A useful question for the enquiry
Does “a water-container warning persists” establish the failed part?
No. Describe that observation separately from “an error appears only after running”. Explain whether they began together or at different times, and include the fitting detail: working room is restricted. The inspection can then consider the symptoms and safe access together.
