Default Lint traps for washers?

H Never had a washer till now, and the installer said to get a lint trap. Jus

H what is a lint trap and where does it go?

It's a mesh thing about 6" long that attaches to the end of the outlet
hose of the washer. It, ummm... traps the lint, preventing it from
clogging the work sink the washer is being drained in to. (A little
still escapes.) (Here the washer drains into a big sink in the
basement; I don't think one is necessary if it drains directly into a
pipe.)

The lint trap is available in the laundry aisle of your supermarket,
in a small box. Should last for months -- just keep an eye on it and
you'll know when it's time to replace.
