Bio: Fix Washing Machine Drain Problems
Has your washing machine refused to drain? This can be an infuriating issue, especially when you are pressed for time. Located in California and Arizona, Candu Plumbing provides a wide range of commercial and residential plumbing services. Our certified, licensed plumbers love helping our customers improve the safety and efficiency of their plumbing fixtures and appliances. You can count on us to do the same for you. The following tips and tricks will help you drain your washing machine properly.

Gather Your Supplies
The first step in any project is to gather the necessary supplies. You will need a five-gallon bucket, a plumber's snake, a screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, your washing machine manual, towels, and a shallow container (such as a baking dish or large oil pan).

Do You Have a Top-Loading Washing Machine? Check the Lid Before Starting
It is common for top loading washing machine draining problems to have an easy solution. The lid can send the wrong signal to the machine if it hasn't been shut properly. As a result, it might appear that a problem exists, when all that is needed is to shut the lid. Damage to the lid may occur from time to time. Until you replace the part, the water may drain if you press down firmly to restart the wash cycle.

Follow These Steps
Assuming you have a front-loading machine, or you have eliminated the possibility of a lid issue, you can proceed the manual draining process. Always turn off the power at the breaker box in order to avoid electrocution, injury or property damage. In addition, unplug the machine and shut off the water supply. After that, strategically place the towels around the machine to absorb any excess water. The next step is to remove the washing machine from the wall and identify the three hoses. Generally, a gray one will handle wastewater, a blue one will handle cold water, and a red one will handle hot water. Hold up the gray drain hose so the water cannot spill out. Once the hose is in the bucket, the machine's water will drain into it. The process should be repeated until the machine is empty.
In some front-loading machines, there will be a drainpipe filter and a separate drain hose. The controls are often located on the front of the machine inside the panel. Owner's manuals should indicate where it can be found. Simply place your shallow container in front of the drain pump filter and turn the knob. The water should start flowing out. Close the knob when it becomes full. Dump and repeat until there is no more water.

Is it likely that clogged pipes are to blame? Call Candu Plumbing Today
Once you have drained your washing machine, it is important to diagnose the problem. Your appliance itself may be malfunctioning, in which case you will have to follow the manufacturer's instructions for troubleshooting. In the event that clogged pipes are to blame, then it is necessary to call professional plumbers who can clear out your drain line and restore the proper flow of wastewater through your system.
