Hi,

A plumber told me that it's a good idea to shut off water from the
washer when it's not in use because the flexible lines aren't rated to
continuous pressure.

A. Is that true?
B. Does the same apply to the gas line for the dryer?

Many thanks in advance!

Thanks for the reminder, its time to replace my 11 year old hoses. A
good stainless steel hose under 5 years old should not require the
hassle of getting under the laundry tub to turn a valve every time you
want to do the laundry. But watch out when they get old.
