1. 1

   Check if a range hood or strong ventilation fan is operating simultaneously, as this can create pressure differences affecting the drain hose.

2. 2

   Inspect the drain hose for proper installation, ensuring it has a correct slope and is not exposed to strong winds that could cause air to blow in.

3. 3

   Ensure the drain hose is not obstructed and has a proper trap or seal to prevent air ingress if possible.
