My husband is trying to install a Cat Genie, a self-flushing litter box. The box liquifies the cat poop and drains it into the washing machine drain. Our problem is our current drainpipe is only 1.5 inches wide and also made of copper. He is worried about backflow. Do you have any advice for...
Hi,
I’ve recently had my washing machine connected however the chap who installed it said the water inlet pipe connected has a larger head thus resulting in the valve not turning resulting in no water or low pressure water.
What can I do to rectify this?
This may be a weird question but looking for any thoughts as to what this could be.. i recently in the last few months moved my washer dryer upstairs from the basement. Its a brand new washer dryer front loader. I always leave the washer door open so this isnt the issue, but often when i wash a...
Hi,
does anybody know any specific models that can deal with the toilet, basin, sink and washing machine?
I've read contrasting things online, so more confused than ever now.
Hey guys, sorry if this is a daft question but ever since we've had our hotpoint washing machine the compartment on the far left (softener compartments I believe) is full of water after every cycle. See attached.
Are we missing an insert here or something? I can't see how else it would drain...
I'm looking to install my new washing machine.
The waste pipe was clipped round the back of the machine during transit. It popped out of some of the clips with ease, but one clip seems sealed.
I need the extra length, so ideally need to unclip it from the clip shown in the photos below. Is...
Hi
I would really appreciate some help. I am in a flat and looking to plum in a washing machine. Could anyone advise if the attached is the right attachment for a washing machine? It’s in a cupboard in the bedroom which is under the stairs!
Wondering also if I can buy any machine or if I need...
Hi there,
We have noticed a funny smell coming from behind our washing machine - on investigation it looks like the waste pipe is leaking where it meets a solid plastic U - now what I want to know is if this is installed correctly? The waste pipe runs downwards from the top of the washing...
Need to plumb in a new washing machine. The room has a sink and toilet one one side, and at the other end of the room, enough space for washing machine and dryer to sit next to eachother. The main waste stack is right next to where the machine will sit
So, I need about 5m of copper pipe routed...
Hi all,
First off, sorry if this is appearing in the wrong place, but I figure I might get some unbiased opinions on here and perhaps some first hand experience too.
I've had bad experiences with dishwashers breaking down, leaking and flooding in the past, albeit they were commercial...
About twenty years ago, we had an extension built with a utility room for washing machine and tumble dryer. We've been through four or five washing machines since then and I have simply pushed the washing machine drain onto a tapered nozzle which screws on the end of the trap.
Recently, Mrs...
Hi all, so we've had to have our washer moved and a plumber installed it next to the sink. Since then the sink has made a gurgling noise whenever the washer is running, and I don't mean once or twice while it's draining, it's quite often and even when the bowl is actually spinning. The plughole...

In the past i would bend the fill pipe in half and put a jubilee clip on the bent section while im working on it.

I bought a new washing machine, it had bad water hammer and started leaking from the inlet valve (plus a couple of other issues) so I exchanged it for the same model. The new one seemed fine at first but after a couple of washes has water hammer. Is the problem with the machine do you think, or...

Washing machine standpipe issues
So I moved into an old house and the laundry area just has this standpipe sticking out of the floor. Cannot access crawlspace to see if there's any type of trap under the floor. We believe the pipe just makes a 90° turn under floor to meet up with other drain...
When the installer came to install my washing machine, he was mystified about the pipe attachment in my house. The metal pipe doesn't appear to have any threading, just a bolt around the end. Because of this the standard pipe attachment doesn't connect.
Do I need to buy some kind of adapter and...
