Hi all. We are trying to install a new washing machine in our home. The previous owners had a slot for a washing machine. We noticed that there is only one hose in the wall. I would have expected an inlet for fresh water and an outlet to drain away dirty water. Image attached. How do we use this one hose to connect the machine? Please advise. Thanks.

Quite often pipes will come from under your sink. They may have removed the hoses with the old machine.

While your installing your washer that cable wrapped in tape and smashed socket look pretty suspect. An easy fix while you have access.
