Washing Machine Parts

Laundry and washing machine installation parts: Fluidmaster stainless braided washing machine supply hoses in 48, 60 and 72 in., Oatey washing machine outlet boxes and drain pans. Rubber supply hoses are the single most common cause of a laundry flood and they fail without warning at the crimp — braided stainless is the replacement to specify, and replacing them on a schedule matters more than the brand. Size the hose to the actual run with some slack; a hose pulled tight behind the machine works at the connection every cycle. An outlet box recesses the valves and the drain standpipe into the wall so the machine can sit flat against it, and a drain pan under the machine is what turns a leak into a puddle instead of a ceiling repair.
