The proper operation of the washing machine largely depends on how well the installation is done. An incorrectly chosen location or connection in violation of the instructions can lead not only to equipment breakdown, but also to electric shock to household members, which is much more serious. In terms of operation, the most suitable room for a washing machine is the bathroom, although high humidity and the size of the room make adjustments during installation.
Installing a washing machine in the bathroom
The sequence of connecting a machine - an automatic machine with your own hands.
Before connecting the unit, you need to choose the most convenient and suitable location for its placement.
After this, the following steps should be followed:
- The washing machine must be installed very levelly, without slopes.
- Connect the flexible water supply hose
- Connect a flexible drain hose to drain water
- Connect to power supply
Why do you need a wall-mounted washing machine?
Wall-mounted household appliances are convenient, and many manufacturers have probably thought about creating such washing machines. However, only a few companies have so far managed to implement the project and launch operating models on the market. Daewoo is rightfully considered the market leader; it was the Korean brand that created the first mounted unit.
Miniature wall-mounted machines are available for sale. They can be found in large shopping centers and ordered from some online stores. However, such offers come across rarely. Not every store where a wall-mounted washing machine is listed in the catalog has it in stock.
Choosing a suitable location.
You need to approach this point very carefully. Since subsequently transferring to another place will be difficult. The main factors to consider are:
- Availability of nearby water supply and drainage systems
- Presence near sockets
- Smooth surface
- The overall interior and the washing machine must match each other
- Accessibility to the washing machine from each side. Free opening of doors.
When choosing a location for installation, several of the most acceptable options are usually selected. This is the kitchen, hallway or bathroom.
How to secure the washing machine so it doesn't roll?
The LV washer tormented me! Rolls on the bathroom floor during the spin cycle. I set it exactly level, all the legs are rubber and stand rigidly (you can hardly move it). But during the spin cycle at 1000 rpm or more, it barely noticeably begins to move away, and then completely shakes (when it moves strongly to another area of the floor). There used to be an old Ardo washing machine. She didn't ride. But it’s true that it only had 400 rpm.
I tried putting tape around the legs (like barriers). Crap! She moves through this tape and there’s nothing to do (although it’s 2-3 millimeters thick). As a result, after several washes, she completely tore this tape off the tile.
Tell me, maybe there are some special devices or methods for securing the washing machine. Otherwise my wife will soon kick me out of the house.
She will also gallop away from him.
