Discuss Clogged drain pipe in the USA area at PlumbersForums.net
Can you post a photograph of the pipework you're trying to use, please?My washer machine drain pipe will back up with the drain hose from the washer, but when I put the hot water line in the drain, it will run forever and not back up. I have tried just about everything with the same results. Thanks in advance.
It is connected to the drainpipe in the wall that leads to the main draine.Is it connected to a spigot or is it separate, eg upstand? Also a washing machine will throw water out at force.
That's all the pipe to be seenCan you post a photograph of the pipework you're trying to use, please?

Excellent link, although worht noting 1.5" diameter is standard in the UK. We haven't quite followed the bloody American bigger-is-better concept that far (yet) so 1.5" is still more than sufficient for European market washing machines.The standpipe needs to be vertical *** Laundry Standpipe - Maplewood Plumbing - https://maplewoodplumbing.com/residential-plumbing/laundry-room-plumbing/laundry-standpipe/
