How to drain the water from the washing machine: valuable tips + walkthrough

It is difficult to overestimate the role stiralok in our daily lives. Not familiar with fatigue aggregates diligently perform for the hosts of the tedious routine duties. Unfortunately, their mechanisms are periodical failures.

If failure occurs during the programmed cycle, you need to know how to drain the water from the washing machine to recover the equipment.

When it becomes necessary to drain

Regardless of the brand washing machine, its technical complexity and the type of load, the reasons for the discharge of water from the working tank is absolutely similar.

If you exaggerate the situation, it is possible to describe it as a series of interrupted without completing the program put tap water through a drain hose into the sewers, or the rejection of the spin.

The reasons by which the machine stops draining water, divided into the following groups:

1. Blockages of internal nodes and channels. Quite common for washing equipment case due to the separation of standard, full-blown fibers lines, decay and deterioration, and "dusting" of the old cloth, hit the small litter and foreign objects in the working bodies of the technology.
2. Pile excretory channels. The reasons are similar to the prerequisites listed above. However, in this case, the "plug" that prevent the conclusion of water, are not relevant to the mechanism stiralki. They are confined to the outer and the drain hose to the adjacent parts of the sewage system.
3. Technical issues. This category includes a long list of minor disruptions and serious damage. Can happen, from the coil from the drain pump system to display defects of the sending machine commands.

There is another reason, which has no relationship to either clogging or to breakdown - this is our negligence. It is possible that he was simply wrong mode is selected.

Suppose, for not forgetting to switch functions "Gentle rinse" after the previous session. If so, then enough to stop and restart the machine.

Problems stiralka forcing to resort to measures to forcibly drain the water may accompany either interrupted or completed work cycle

If the machine is not programmed to work completed in the tank along with the laundry remains soap or nearly pure water

Stiralka necessarily automatic stop if the detergent drawer was filled with powder, intended for manual washing. In this case, the foam electronic sequencer can even be damaged

Often the machine interrupts the job and perform operations when a clogged drain hose is clogged or point of entry into the sewer through a siphon

Blockages of filters and outlet water channels often occur if items having a nap washed in equipment not specifically designed for processing, or not use the trap pile net bag

Sudden stop washing machine happens if due to the illiterate treatment or wet wiring malfunction of kommandoapparat

One of the most common causes - clogged sediment and scale fiber filter to protect the drain pump or failure of the pump

It happens that the water from the tank is not given to machine due to incorrectly selected program. For example, after washing delicate things it was not the mode is gentle rinse and spin

In the washing machine water left after washing

After completion of the wash program has remained the foam and water

Stiralka stopped due to excessive foam

Water no longer leave stiralki into drains

Things are a pile in the washing machine

Unable to set the program the washing machine

Error codes on the display when the program

With a complex technical violation is not worth fighting with his own hands. Especially that certified service centers, supervising the production of certain brands, often after an independent intervention refuse to carry out repairs.

However, before you decide to disassemble the machine, it is necessary to find out whether the cause was the failure to drain clogged hose or siphon drain.

Simultaneously with the water draining from the wash tank eliminates typical causes of blockage, clean the filters and drains of washing machines

It often happens that detects the cause washing water draining technique normally accompanied by a simultaneous fix. It is clear that this is happening when the blockage is removed the standard.

With clog filters placed in front of the drain pump, and clogging installed near the pump can handle the pipes themselves, without resorting to an expensive service repairmen.

Regardless of what is connected with the washing machine without stopping water discharge completion, the same methods (+) are used to get rid of it

Options for draining water from the machine

The need to drain water from the washing tub occurs as completed at the programmed work machines, and at the interrupted cycle due to this damage.

Procedure for locking the door

If laid komandoapparatov stages have been passed, not all, the frontal model hatches for 5 - 10 minutes will still be blocked.

No need to pull the hatch holder and panic in vain. He easily open, after a specified period by the manufacturer of the unit.

Better advance tax floor around an old typewriter linens, towels or similar hygroscopic things perfectly and quickly absorb water, and the ability to hold it for long.

In case of jamming used emergency unlocking means.

If visually detectable level in the tank washing machine leaves no doubt that the floor in the room is pretty flooded, do not seek to immediately after stopping to open the hatch

If the hatch opening in the drum there is water, which can scoop plastic scoop or measuring cup, it is wiser to do just that. Freed in this way from some of the water, we are currently significantly simplify the problem.

From stiralok top-loading bale can be practically all the water is then drained through hose residues.

For frontal units approach is somewhat different. Easily draw water out of the drum can, if it is its relatively small, i.e., level reaches the top edge of the lower edge of the rubber sleeve.

Bulk water from the machine of the vertical type is best simply to collect in a bucket or similar container

For the full drain, disconnect the fixed top of the case drain hose and bring it into the prepared container

Lowering the edge of the hose as low as possible, you should wait until all the water has drained from the equipment. In order to make sure that it is no longer in the unit, the hose should be put on the floor

Unless the provisions of the hose on the floor no more water flows out, all collected in a bucket, just poured down the drain

If the frontal technique is clearly more water than we would like to secure scooping, it is better not to take risks and do not open the door immediately.

Desirably, without opening the machine front, several push it against the wall situated behind.

Then you just "knock over" her back and gently lean against the upper edge of the wall. From such movement of the container containing the water spilled on the floor will be much less.

If there is a possibility of water of the Strait during the opening of the hatch front stiralki model, it is best to lightly push the "on" and gently lean against the upper edge of the housing to the wall

It is important to remember that all the actions with a washing machine, regardless of their degree of difficulty must be performed, disconnect the equipment and removing the plug from the socket.

It is also necessary to cut the supply of tap water. Further embodiments analyze drain water from the tank stiralki.

Method # 1 - Using emergency hose

The possibility of these situations is provided by various manufacturers.

For example, in the line stiralok Samsung and technology Bosch there are models with incorporated into the design of the emergency hose through which to easily emptied tank filled with water, if necessary.

This device is located next to the filter drain system. To gain access to it is enough to open a decorative hatch located in the lower part of the front panel of the machine.

He conceals and protects required to service nodes.

Step 1: To access the hose intended for emergency emptying, open the service cover, located at the bottom of the front panel

Step 2: Print the emergency hose into the previously prepared for the collection of water capacity

Step 3: Removing a hose cover, wait until all the water from the washing machine does not merge

Step 4: Upon completion of the work set the emergency drain hose into place, securing it in regular brackets, carefully wipe the water service unit and the floor around it

To perform the drain:

1. Removing the emergency hose from the nicheIntended for its placement in an unactuated state.
2. Set flat container directly below the hatch or as close as possible to him.
3. Remove the cap from the hose edge, We start it in the container and wait until it fully merges all the water from the washing tub.

If during the period of draining than any clogged and the hose, it is better to carefully cleaned immediately, without disconnecting from the machine.

One of the variants of the device to carry out the emergency emptying does not imply the existence of a hose. Water from stiralki in these models is drained through a plastic channel

Method # 2 - draining through the hole with the filter

This method, of course, refers to the most time-consuming and "dirty". Drain hole to which drain hose is connected, it is arranged for the case described in the previous decorative hatches.

Before the hose inside the structure is a filter which is required by the rules of operation are periodically cleaned.

While older stiralok, for example, in brand models Indesit, Inserted into the drain hole with a filter on it is pretty low, put under him, even almost flat capacity hard enough.

Service stiralok cover may be formed not in the form of decorative flap. At ryadya stiralok Samsung, for example, it is made as a longitudinal bar

For in this case, the access to the service node is removed, it is much more convenient for maintenance

Water will flow partially by loosening tightness of threaded connections. The floor around the machine should be prepared to impose washing bedding, towels or a rag

The location, shape, size of the hatch with the service cover depends on the manufacturer's preference. It can be quite small, located on the right or on the left

Suitable as a collecting container literally plate with low bumpers, but because it will be extremely quickly filled the hole will often cover the tight twisting device with filter bars.

Then again slightly open and close again - it's long, but the sink is made fully and effectively.

drain extraction algorithm with a filter as follows:

1. Open the service cover - at the bottom of the machine a small hatch.
2. Carefully unscrew the plastic device with a filtering grid, Leading him to move the screw counterclockwise available in the structure. First, unscrew a little, about 10 °. If you do not give in, you can help him with a screwdriver inserted into the available slot on the screw.
3. merge water. Loosening the tight connection in the assembly of the drain filter, to achieve a convenient collecting the jet of water. Completing stockpiled plate or cuvette, spin filter screw back so that the water is not flowed.

So we act until the complete liberation of the machine from the water. After completing draining, remove the unit from the grid filter and clean it.

Water drainage through the filter system was removed portions. Slightly unscrewing the filter gain capacity back spin filter. After emptying the tank everything is repeated until the complete removal of water

Incidentally, it is not cleansed filter is a typical cause of stopping the machine without shutting down operations on the instructions laid.

With frequent repetition of this leads to excess load on the drain pump and it is almost inevitable exit from the building.

All washing machines require periodic cleansing of sediment filters. Regular maintenance protects against breakage drain pump

Step 1: Before removing drain filter system for cleaning carpeted floor around hygroscopic sheets prepared by washing

Step 2: Stored water collecting tank. Desirably, it has a flat, low bumpers

Step 3: Open the service cover, behind which there is a screw-handle drain filter system

Step 4: Twisted filter by turning it counterclockwise. If hardly gets out because of a jammed or polluted thread is applied to the handle with a screwdriver force

Step 5: Carefully remove the filter, remember its location before removing. Conversely it is necessary to insert the same side

Step 6: My filter under running tap water, purify it completely and thoroughly wipe before installing reverse

Step 7: After completing the cleaning of the filter, install it into a socket having got exactly into the grooves intended for its fixing. Wipe the floor, used in things zastiryvaem and prepare for the upcoming wash

Method # 3 - using the drainage hose

This is the easiest and most efficient way to limit the release of water from the washing tub. True it is suitable if the filter drain system itself drain hose is not clogged.

More often than not have to do so when the pump broke down, pushes water into the sewer.

According to the method described, the drain hose attached to the rear of the unit, it is necessary to unscrew from designed holes and just put it on the laid pre rags floor, ie positioned on the lowest level.

To derive water from the machine via the drain hose it are detached, laid on the floor. As soon as water flows out of the hose, it led into a bucket and empty the washing tub

When the water from the hose should immediately make it to the adjacent tanks. All that spilled past, you should immediately clean up, without waiting for the arrival of the indignant neighbors from beneath your apartment.

After the release of water from the machine it is necessary to clean the filter of the drain hose and tie it back to the opening on the back of the device.

Before you begin loosening the hose to drain the water, it is necessary to read the instructions and understand whether it is possible to drain the water on the technology described in Example

Note that described in this example, the method is not suitable for all machines. A number of modifications Siemens and from Bosch part of the downcomer is arranged in the form of a loop disposed within the housing.

Thanks to these constructive solution, there is no spontaneous discharge of water during operation, but also empty the tank by this method is not possible.

To avoid wasting power, better to look into the passport and technical documentation attached to the home technology. If the aforesaid design feature is the place to be, it is necessary to select a different method for draining.

After removal from the water machine is recommended to carry out preventive cleaning of filters located at the points of connection of the drain and delivery hoses

Method # 4 - after the release of the spout

In the performance of forced variants drain through the pipe will require radical measures with the analysis machine.

To resort to this method, it is not necessary for no apparent reason. It is suitable if all of the above methods did not result in the expected outcome. In addition, its implementation requires application of man's hands.

How to determine that stiralku need to disassemble? A typical feature is the absence of water in the drain hole after removal therefrom of the filtering device with a grid.

This means that the internal channel is clogged, discharge water to the drain.

If you perform the methods described above the drain, it is impossible to resort to drastic measures - procleaning pipe drain pump

The sequence of actions in case of discharge through the pipe:

1. Removing the rear or the front panel stiralkiPreviously unscrewing the fastening and putting it in a suitable box or plastic cup.
2. We find spout. It is located under the tank within which the drum rotates.
3. Substitute any flat container a plot of pipe, the area around the carpeted cloths for instant collecting spilled water.
4. disconnect the hose clampWhich pipe is connected to the drain pump system, dismantle the pipe, after which water must gush flow. Quickly collect it and pour down the drain.
5. Clean the nozzle and the adjacent channel is simply a finger, a pencil or similar object.

After completing the drain and pipe cleaning, part set cars on relying their place firmly rolled up by remembering that everything should be tightly linked to the maximum.

Before the cleaning of the nozzle is necessary to detach the front panel of the case and check the condition of the drainage system. It is not excluded that part of the parts and assemblies need not only clean, but also to be replaced

If during scrapers found that litter and fibers clogged drain pump, carefully unscrew the pump and purify it from hindering the dirt.

At the same time clear the thread drain pump and the inner surface of the housing. Check how to rotate the impeller. If available, collect system in reverse, if the rotation is difficult, clean the connection node of the impeller to the motor unit.

The disassembled easier and more convenient to deal with the cleaning of the drainage system. If necessary, the pump can detach and fully cleaned of sediments and contaminants

Recommendations housewives and handyman

An impressive list of failures and machine stops without completing the program can alert the elementary, following the simple operating procedures:

1. Before loading items into the drum remove all the contents of pockets. Especially harmful to the unit coins, paperclips, earrings, rings, small keys of baggage and similar metal objects.
2. Check the strength prishivki buttons and zippers. Before diving preparations for washing clothes, locks and snake buttons must be buttoned.
3. Under the lapels and pockets of brush scrub dust and sand.
4. Before washing curtains remove the hooksWith which they are connected to the wheels of the cornice.

Do not forget that the washing machine - a complex technical device that requires careful treatment.

It will be useful to put a fine linen and items with a nap in the mesh bags, specialized produced for washing machines. Instead, they allowed to use the thin fabric or self-made out of her bag

Regularly clean the filter flush system at the intervals specified by the manufacturer.

If the drum load order of worn-out clothes, clean the filter after each of the wash.
