service technician, in order to avoid a hazard.
●
●

Draining
●
●
Regularly check that your standpipe or tub is free from lint or other obstructions, which
may affect how your washer works or may cause flooding.

●
In multi-storey apartments or any upper floor, the washer should be installed on a floor
equipped with a drain.
●

Draining must comply with local by-laws.

●
If you have an uncontrolled water heating source (eg a wet back or solar heating
system) you should fit a tempering valve. This will ensure the hot water temperature
remains within safe limits.
