Washing machine drain hose. Discussion Thread
Hi
I'm unsure what is acceptable when routing the drain hose from a washing machine.
Is the loop shown in the picture acceptable?
Additionally, the rubber end to the drain hose almost closes off the 40mm opening of the stand pipe. I know that a gap must be present. Looking at the hose, the last 150mm of the hose appears to be slightly different. Can this be cut off to allow the hose to go into the standpipe and give an air gap, instead of it fully closing of the opening like the rubber end does.
Many thanks in advance
