Marilyn for Model Number MVWB450WQ1 When the water drains out of the washing machine the water pressure is to strong and the water comes up out of the drain. I need a part the the hose can go into and the part to go into the drain to take up the space to prevent the water from seeping out of the drain. Can you help me. I believe the drain is a 2" pipe. The pipe is in the wall.
Answer Hello Marilyn, the manufacturer does not supply the type adapter you are asking for. This is a drain plumbing problem, not a washer problem, attempting to make the drain connection air/watertight will result in siphoning of the wash /rinse water tub fill and prematurely wear out the drain pump. According to the manufacturer's installation directions the standpipe for the washer's drain hose has to be able of carrying 17 gallons a minute flow rate. It is not uncommon to have house drain pipes connected to a washer's restrict due to a build-up of debris, soap residue, hard water, grease/oil, lint. You may want to contact a plumber for this as this condition usually just gets worse and the cure could be as simple as using a pour in drain cleaner or the pipe may need to be snaked out.
