John for Model Number PAV2200AWW I want to extend the discharge hose from the Maytag top load washer about 40 ft. The guy at Home depot told me it was just like a garden hose, I knew that wasn't right. Where can I get the hose with the right hookup?

This will cause siphoning and will not produce a satisfactory wash result. The drain would actually need to be put into a drain line the size used in the average home, (4 to 6 inches in diameter), with a proper air gap in order to work correctly. Read More...
