Hi,
When I connected my washing machine to the cold water feed to leaks ever so slightly. I am presuming that there is a washer in the end of the connection hose from the washing machine that has gone. Does this sound likely and are these a standard part you can get from any DIY shop (B&Q etc...). Thanks in advance, CM. |

If you can't find the correct washers, use a 20mm grommet of the type used in socket backboxes - the sheds all sell them. -- *Suicidal twin kills sister by mistake.

strung together this: When I connected my washing machine to the cold water feed to leaks ever so slightly. Although they are meant to be a hand tight fitting sometimesw they need an extra nipping up with a pair of grips or pliers. I am presuming that there is a washer in the end of the connection hose from the washing machine that has gone. Does this sound likely and are these a standard part you can get from any DIY shop (B&Q etc...). Yes, if the above doesn't stop it you should be able to find some suitable washers, best bet would be a smaller hardware or domestic apliance store as you'll probably be able to get one for a few pence as opposed to packs of however many for a few pounds from the likes of B&Q -- SJW A.C.S.
