Slow fills and rusty screens in Addison homes
Older Addison homes may still have galvanized supply pipes. As those pipes age, they shed rust flakes into the water. The flakes collect in the screens inside the washer's inlet valve. Fill slows down, and the washer may stop with a water supply error. Hot and cold can also mix wrong when one screen clogs more than the other. Our technician pulls the hoses, checks the screens and tests the inlet valve. If the hoses are rubber and aging, we suggest braided steel ones.
What happens on an Addison washer call
We clean the screens and run a fill test to see how fast the tub fills. If the valve still lags, we test it with a meter and price a new one. Most inlet repairs take one visit. Addison owners approve the cost before any work. Addison homes off Lake Street often see us that day, and the new valve stays under our repair warranty.
Washers on Addison's older laundry drains
The drain pipe behind an Addison washer is often as old as the house. It was sized for the slow pumps of the 1970s. A new washer pushes water out much faster. The standpipe is the open pipe the hose hangs in. When the old pipe cannot keep up, water spills over its top. It looks like the washer is leaking, but the washer is fine.
We check where the water comes from before we replace anything. If it is the drain, we tell you, and you call a plumber instead of paying us for parts. If it is the machine, a split hose or a worn pump, we fix it. Our repair warranty covers the fix.
