Model Number: WWSE5240G0WW Brand: GE Age: 5 - 10 years
I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma. We had a hard freeze a couple of nights ago. My
washer & dryer are in our garage. The next day my wife went to the garage & found water leaking or spraying from where the water hoses connect to the water intake valve. The threaded hose connections on my water intake valve are plastic. The hot and cold water hoses have metal threaded connections. I shut off the water and unscrewed the hoses from the water intake valve. I figured the washers froze and got hard and that might have caused the spewing leak from both hot and cold water connections. I replaced rubber washers in both hoses and re-attached both to plastic connections on the water intake valve. still had the leak from both connections. I tried reversing the ends of the hoses and they still leaked. I tried another pair of hoses and they still leaked. I had no burst pipes any where else or any freeze ups. I removed the water intake valve to make sure my intake screens were dirty. I made sure nothing froze up in the intake valve. I figured the hard freeze must have done something to the plastic threads on the water intake valve. I am at my wits end. Any ideas? Thanks for any help. Ads By Google Related Models |
