# Leaky Washer in Ocala: A Seasonal Challenge

Living in the Ocala service area, part of Marion County, means dealing with Florida's notorious humidity and seasonal rains. Recently, one of our clients near downtown Ocala called us about a washer leaking water.

## What Happened?
- The washer was a 2018 model Samsung front-loader.
- Leak appeared after the heavy summer rains.
- Customer noticed puddles on the floor after each cycle.

## Our Diagnosis
- The main culprit was a cracked water inlet hose weakened by prolonged exposure to moisture and heat.
- Additionally, the door seal had some mold buildup due to humidity.

## Lesson Learned
- Florida's climate can accelerate wear on appliance parts, especially rubber hoses and seals.
- Routine checks every 6 months, especially in humid regions like Marion and Lake Counties, can prevent leaks.
- Calling Clermont technicians or local experts serving the Greater Orlando Area ensures quick, knowledgeable service.

## What We Did
- Replaced the cracked hose with a heavy-duty, humidity-resistant part.
- Cleaned and treated the door seal to prevent mold recurrence.
- Tested the machine thoroughly before completing the repair.

Appliance repair in Orlando and surrounding areas like Winter Park and Sanford often involves addressing climate-related wear, so regular maintenance is key.
