Have you pulled the hose out and checked its not ripped, could also be that its
leaking at the top connection. Definately not correct but an easy fix.

from what I have found it could be either a split in the hose (connections to the brush, or just inside the pole itself from over closing a little hap hazard)


I myself had a drip problem and for the life of me cant work out why >:( changed everything for new and still happens.

I did get a tip from fosters it water comes down pole use a elastic band on it, worked a treat.

What you will find is that there is a hole in the brush which attaches to the pole, the water then runs down the middle of the pole. I have one brush that does this.

so you should tilt the brush down slightly so the water runs down the bristles and not back towards the stock
