Installing an automatic machine in an apartment. If the machine is not new

Few people want to spend money after buying a washing machine on the installation, obsessively offered by employees of household appliances stores. In this article, we will show you how to set up your washing machine yourself.

You have received the highly anticipated technique, now it's time to move on to the installation. You will need to remove the shipping bolts located on the back of the machine body. Fasteners are necessary so that the tank does not dangle inside during transportation, as this can damage the "insides" of the equipment. The bolts will not allow the machine to turn on, moreover, this can lead to serious damage. Use a wrench or pliers to avoid trouble removing the bolts. Close the holes with the plastic plugs supplied with the washing machine. Do not throw away the fasteners - they will come in handy in the event of a move.

It is not difficult to connect the washing machine yourself, but first you need to figure out where to install the equipment. The place should be such that in the future it would be convenient for the equipment to be serviced and to be matched to all the necessary parts. Often, owners prefer to install the car in the bathroom, as it is not only convenient and practical, but also goes well with any interior. But in this case, it must be borne in mind that high humidity can adversely affect the work of the MCA.
A washing machine is also installed in the kitchen. This option is perfectly acceptable, especially when there is not enough space in the bathroom. And in the kitchen, the typewriter can be built into a cabinet, hidden in a closet or installed in a niche. If you wish, you can install the CM in the hallway, if there is enough space and there is an outlet. Before installation, it is very important to think over everything, weigh the pros and cons.

Hot water: yes or no

Today, some modern models of machines are suitable for connecting cold and hot water. But the opinion of experts boils down to the fact that no advantages are foreseen when connecting hot water. Modern machines have a heating element that heats water to the required temperatures. But there are significant disadvantages:

  • Water can be highly polluted, unlike cold water. Therefore, you will often need to clean the filter in the inlet valve (and the drain valve too). You will have to do this either on your own or call a master, and this will hit the family budget.
  • Hot water is very hard, so you will need to use more washing powder. Otherwise, things will remain dirty after washing.

If connecting the washing machine to hot water is impossible, then there is no need to think about this question.

Second phase. Water connection

Connecting the washing machine to the water supply is a process that requires special attention, accuracy and accuracy. If done correctly, your clipper will work properly. To connect the equipment to the pipeline, you will need flexible hoses with a diameter of 2 cm.To connect the washing machine to water, you need to do the following:

  1. Find the right place in the plumbing and cut the threads.
  2. What do you need to install a valve? Fasteners - they guarantee a secure fit.
  3. Install a protective grid to prevent the penetration of small foreign objects into the drum.

Advice! Clean the net and close the valve after each wash to ensure stable and efficient operation of the machine.

To supply water, you need a ready-made outlet that connects to a mixer or a cistern. Such a simple installation diagram will help you cope with the water connection yourself.

Stage three. Network connection

This process requires responsibility. It is necessary to install one socket, which must be protected from water and earthed. Most modern washing machines are often protected from current and are grounded. But it is better to play it safe once again than to expose your life to danger and equipment to failure. Basically, all machines have a power cord that is approximately 1.5 meters long. Therefore, the socket must be at such a distance that you can connect the equipment to the network.

If you have passed this stage without any difficulties, it is time to move on to the final step.

Stage four. Fixing the machine

We continue with the installation instructions. Don't know how to install the CM so that vibrations, jumping and shaking do not occur during washing and spinning? This problem occurs due to uneven floors. The machine must be placed on a perfectly level floor. If you find any irregularities, use a rubber mat - place it under the machine. The mat perfectly dampens vibrations. Never use wood or linoleum clippings - they only temporarily fix the problem. We offer a way to make sure that the washer is installed correctly and at the right level: lean your weight on each corner of the top cover. If none of them leans down, the machine is level.

Important! If you neglect the installation rules, the machine will jump during the wash. This usually ends in breakdowns.

The final stage. Testing

Have you coped with all the difficulties when installing equipment with your own hands? Now it remains to evaluate the result of the work done - to make sure that everything is done correctly and the machine is working as expected.
The check goes as follows:

  1. When you select a wash mode, the drum rotates and does not stand still.
  2. No signs of leakage - the hoses are well connected.
  3. When turned on, there is no extraneous noise inside the machine.
  4. The correct operation of the spin and drain, functioning stably after washing, confirms the correct installation.

If you are interested in a visual detailed installation of the washing machine, the video instruction will help you figure it out:

Now you can check the effectiveness of washing clothes in the CMA. Good luck and pleasant use.

The washing machine must be connected to three networks at once: water supply, sewerage and electricity. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a place for installation so that all three systems are located next to each other or it is possible to bring them there. Bath, toilet and kitchen are considered optimal for installing a washing machine - they have all the necessary communications. Most often, they require a little tweaking, but connecting a washing machine is not very difficult. The connection process itself is simple, you don't need to do anything super complicated, if you have "straight lines" you can do everything yourself.

Accommodation options

  • toilet;
  • bathroom or combined bathroom;
  • kitchen;
  • corridor.

The most problematic option is the corridor. Usually, the corridor does not have the required communications - no sewage, no water. We'll have to "pull" them to the installation site, which is not easy at all. But sometimes that's the only option. In the photo below, there are several interesting solutions to how you can put a typewriter in the corridor.

In the photo - the option of installing a washing machine in a narrow corridor Doing something similar to a portal is also a way out

There are all communications in the toilet, but in typical high-rise buildings the dimensions of this room are such that it is sometimes difficult to turn around there - there is absolutely no place at all. In this case, place washing machines over the toilet. To do this, make a shelf so that sitting on the toilet does not touch it with your head. It is clear that it must be very strong and reliable, and the machine must have very good shock absorbers. In addition, they must be positioned perfectly, otherwise they can "skip" during the spin cycle. In general, with this method of installing the washing machine, it does not hurt to make several slats that will prevent it from falling off the shelf.

The shelf is solid and reliable, but slippery - a rubber mat is needed under the legs for shock absorption

There is usually not very much space in the bathroom and the combined bathroom either, but still more than in the toilet. There is a choice here. If there is space, you can put a washing machine next to the sink. From above, you can install a tabletop, which will be a logical conclusion, and also solve the problem of water ingress on the case. To make everything look organic, you need to choose a machine of such a height so that it fits into the size, and the sink itself is better than a square one - then they will become wall to wall. If there is not enough space, you can push at least part of the case under the sink.

There is a more compact way - put the washing machine under the sink. Only the sink needs a special shape - so that the siphon is installed at the back.

The next option for installing a washing machine in the bathroom is on the side of the bathtub, between its side and the wall. Today, the size of the cases can be narrow, so this option is a reality.

Just keep in mind that installing such equipment in bathrooms or a combined bathroom is not the best idea. Due to high humidity, the case begins to rust quickly (tested on our own experience). However, there is usually not very much space, although in principle, you can put the car under the sink or hang shelves over it. In general, it's up to you to decide.

Another popular place to install a washing machine is in the kitchen. It is embedded in. Sometimes they close them with doors, sometimes they don't. This is at the discretion of the owners. Several interesting photos are in the gallery.

Doors with a cutout for the "porthole"

Removing the shipping bolts

Before connecting the washing machine, you need to unpack it and remove the mounting bolts, put plugs in their place.

This procedure is required immediately after unpacking. Leaving the bolts on and turning on the machine will break it down. And this is not a warranty case. The number of bolts from different manufacturers is different, but the installation diagram is in the operating instructions, and they are visible on the back wall. Just take a screwdriver and unscrew it, close the opened hole with a plug.

Water connection

First, about what kind of water the washing machine is connected to. Generally - to the cold. The water is then heated by heating elements as required. Some owners, in order to save money, are connected to hot water. This way, washing less energy is consumed. But the savings are doubtful - more hot water goes away. If a meter is installed on the hot water supply, it is cheaper to pay for electricity than for hot water. It is also worth considering that connecting the washing machine to hot water is not very good in relation to linen: proteins curl up from temperature and then wash poorly.

This was about ordinary washing machines, but there are models that are connected to both hot and cold water. They have not one water inlet on the back wall, but two. They are very rare in our country - the demand is too low, and the prices for such equipment are much higher.

Now about the connection itself. The washing machine comes with a rubber hose, which you need to connect the washing machine to water. Its length is 70-80 cm, which is not always enough. If necessary, in stores selling plumbing, you can buy a longer one (3 meters is not the limit, it seems).

This hose is screwed onto the corresponding outlet on the rear wall. There should be a rubber gasket, so there is no need to rewind. Tighten the union nut of the hose (plastic) by hand, if you use wrenches, then just tighten it by half a turn. Not more.

The other end of the hose must be connected to the plumbing system. If you have somewhere a free outlet ending with a tap - great, if not, you need to make a tie-in.

If there is a free drainage of water, it is very simple to connect the washing machine to the water supply system - put a filter, to it - a hose. Everything

The easiest way is with plastic, polypropylene or metal-plastic pipes - they bought a tee (with one transition to the metal), soldered / installed. If the water supply is divorced with a metal pipe, you will have to embed the tee by welding.

In any case, a tap is placed after the tee. Simpler and cheaper - ball. When installing it, you can wind linseed tow on the thread and grease it with paste.

After the tee, put a ball valve, already connect the hose to it

There are also tees with taps for connecting washing machines and other household appliances. The same ball valve is installed in one of the branches, but everything is done in one body. It looks more compact, but if the crane malfunctions, you will have to change the entire tee, but it costs decently.

Sometimes it is advised to put a filter before the tap. Of course, it will not be superfluous, but if there is a filter at the entrance to an apartment or house, then there is no urgent need for it.

Where to put the drain hose

If there is a sink or sink siphon nearby, there is no problem. You don't even have to redo the sewer. It will be necessary to buy a special siphon with a branch for connecting washing machines and other household appliances and install it instead of the old one.

Another option is to connect the washing machine to the sewer directly. To do this, you can:


All these methods require reworking the pipeline, but the connection will be capital. There is one point: the diameter of the drain hose is much smaller than the size of the sewer gadflies. To ensure tightness and ensure odorlessness, special rubber sleeves are inserted into the outlets. A hose is simply stuck in them. The elastic edge of the cuff wraps around the cuff, the connection is ready.

There are also temporary connection options. The drain hose is simply lowered into the bathroom, toilet or sink. This method is, of course, very simple, but not the best - the hose may fall, you may forget to put it back in place after turning on the machine, etc. Then the water is drained directly onto the floor, and removing the flood is not very pleasant, and even the neighbors below (if any) will definitely not be happy.

Putting a hose down the toilet is easy, but not reliable

With any method of connecting the drain hose from the machine to the sewage system, you must ensure that it does not bend and does not fit in loops. The corrugated drain hose is prone to blockages, therefore it is necessary to observe the minimum bend radius.

All these data are usually prescribed in the instructions, but usually the minimum bending radius is 50 cm, the maximum is 85 cm.In order to control the position of the hose, there are special plastic clamps that are put on top of the corrugation and hold it in the desired position.

Electrical connection

Since the power of the washing machine with the heating elements turned on is decent, it is advisable to bring a separate power line from the shield to it. The circuit is simple - the phase from the input is fed to the circuit breaker, from it it goes to the RCD, then by wire - to the place where the outlet is installed.

All manufacturers emphasize that the socket must be grounded. Only in this case the factory guarantees remain valid.

Now about the denominations. The circuit breaker is selected according to the current required by the device. This figure can be found in the passport, or you can calculate it. It is necessary to divide the power of the washing machine by 220 V, we get the consumed current. For example, your unit has a power of 3.5 kW. We get 3500 W / 220 V = 15.9 A. We take the nearest larger one at face value. They are 6 A, 10 A, 16 A, 20 A, 25 A. For our case, a 16 A machine is suitable.

Let's move on to choosing an RCD. In terms of current, it is taken one step higher than the rating of the machine, that is, for the given example, it is 32 A. But the RCD has one more characteristic - the leakage current. For devices that are connected to a leased line, the recommended value is 10 mA. So, for a 3.5 kW washing machine, a 16 A machine is required, a 32 A RCD, with a leakage current of 10 mA.

It would also be nice to calculate the cross-section of the wire. Today, cables with copper conductors are mainly used for wiring. They are more flexible, less heavy. The calculation is done by power or by current consumption, but since the range of power of washing machines is limited, we can say right away that for devices up to 4.1 kW, a core section of 1.5 square meters is sufficient. mm (copper conductors), up to 5.5 kW - 2.5 sq. mm.

And the last thing about the electrician: about the sockets. When choosing an outlet, be careful not only for the presence of a grounding contact. You also need to look at what voltage this outlet is designed for. Normal products have markings on the back. The maximum operating voltage is indicated there. Sometimes the rated current is set. You know it too (or you can calculate it as described above). If there are no inscriptions, it is better not to risk it. Most likely this is a cheap Chinese consumer goods and how it will work is a mystery.

The last stage is setting the level

Connecting the washing machine to the water supply and sewerage system is not all. We need to provide her with normal working conditions. In order for the washing machine not to jump during the spin cycle, it must be positioned strictly vertically. The position of the body is adjusted using adjustable legs. They take a building level, put it on the lid, change the height of the legs, making sure that the bubble in the level is strictly in the center.

Check by laying the level parallel to the front, then move it to the back wall. Then the procedure is repeated, but the level is applied to the side walls of the case - on one side, then on the other. After the bubble is located strictly in the center in all positions, we can assume that the washing machine is level.

If there is no level, you can try to set the machine by placing a glass with a rim on it, into which water is poured. The water level is along the rim. Change the position until the water is exactly on the rim. This method is less accurate, but better than nothing.

There is one more thing. Most often, washing machines are on a tiled floor, but it is slippery and hard. Therefore, even a perfectly positioned machine sometimes "jumps" - it is impossible to extinguish vibration during spinning on a hard floor. To cope with the situation, you can put a rubber mat under the machine. It serves as an excellent shock absorber.

A washing machine works well only when it is installed correctly. It may be surprising, but very rarely do people get it right. Now we will figure out how to set the model correctly.

It's not enough to just drag the model, put it in the kitchen or bathroom and plug it in. A competent installation involves the implementation of specific actions.

First of all, we need to remove the shipping bolts that are located on the back of the case. They're big. Even if you set the washing machine correctly, but do not remove the transport bolts, the device will jump throughout the room during the washing process. These bolts are needed so that the drum of the machine is not damaged during transportation - they compress it strongly, and it is almost stationary.

As soon as you remove the bolts, you can proceed to the exposure of the machine itself directly. First of all, you need to understand that you cannot put the device on an inclined surface or a soft surface. It is best if it is a tile - the ideal surface for the model. When installed on the floor at an angle, the machine will "jump" towards the inclination during the spinning process.

Next, the machine must be set exactly. The top cover should be parallel to the floor and the easiest way to do this is to use a simple level. The alignment of the alignment is regulated thanks to the legs, which can be rotated, decreasing or increasing their length. After setting the typewriter, you need to "probe" it, because push back and forth, left and right, and make sure the device does not bend over when you push. If you feel even the slightest push, then you need to twist the leg again in the place where the machine bends.

After setting the legs, they need to be fixed. In different models, the locking mechanism may differ from each other, so read the instructions better. If the legs are not fixed at the set value, then during spinning they can loosen and the length set by you will simply go astray. Then the car will start jumping again.

In principle, there is nothing difficult in setting a car to a level. In most cases, the level is not even used by people; it is set in the model "by eye". This is fraught with the fact that the device rattles strongly during spinning, and sometimes even jumps, but no more. Remember: the better the installation is, the quieter the washing and spinning process will be due to the absence of additional vibrations.

Choosing and buying an automatic machine is only half of the entire process before its full use. For you to be able to fully use the technique, you need to know , how to install a washing machine without unnecessary effort and time. This manual will help you - an automatic machine of any company, be it LG, bosch, Samsung, Indesite, etc.

The sequence of the installation process of the washing machine machine

After purchasing such equipment, you need to unpack it and decide where you are going to install it - in the bathroom or in the kitchen. There is no difference, just the location of the washing machine will depend solely on the dimensions of the chosen room. So, after buying a car from any company (indesit, samsung, bosch, etc.) and before starting its productive work, you should do the following procedures:

  1. Immediately after the equipment arrives at your home, remove all packing materials (cardboard packaging, film, belts, etc.) from it. Remember that storage of packaging with the name of the product (be it bosch, Lg, etc.) during the warranty period from the manufacturer will allow you to return the equipment in case of its defectiveness or breakdown through no fault of the manufacturer.
  2. Now we proceed to remove the shipping bolts - we remove them together with the plastic spacers. They are needed solely so as not to damage the drum mechanism during transportation, but they must be removed during installation. These bolts are located in the back of the vehicle. Remember that a lot of force is not needed to remove them - loosen the mounting bolt and then you can unscrew it by hand. So, we loosen the bolt, lift it up together with the plastic spacer and carefully remove them from the back of the machine.
  3. The hole is left empty, which means you need to put plastic decorative plugs in it, which you should find in the packing box.
  4. Now you can connect the drain water supply. First you need to insert a small filter into the water supply hose, which should be included in the kit. Note that this filter must be inserted into the end of the hoses with a curved edge. Make sure that the convex side of the filter is directed towards the outlet of the washer. This process is essential for any type of washing machine installation, be it in the bathroom, kitchen or under the sink in any room.
  5. Now you should correctly connect the hose with the filter to the washing machine - you need to do this without effort and wrenches, because the rubber gaskets do not allow water to seep and drip.
  6. Now screw the other end of the hoses with a plastic nut to the cold water pipe. This process should also take place without the use of keys.

On one's own connecting the washing machine bosch or any other brand in kitchen or bathroom, remember that the water supply hose to the appliance must be connected to a cold water pipe. Of course, you can connect the washing machine to hot water, saving on electricity consumption, but this is not always beneficial for your clothes, because delicate fabrics need to be washed in warm, and sometimes even in cold water.

Now you need to properly connect the drain to the system. The presence of a special curved plastic hook in the kit means that the drain can be installed directly into the sink (including the kitchen) or the bathroom. This is the easiest way to install a drain - you just need to insert a hose into this hook and hook it onto the bathroom or sink. But there are drawbacks in it - sometimes, while draining water from the machine, the hose can slip out of the hook, fall to the floor and flood your apartment.
It is safer or more reliable to install the drain in this way - look under the sink and find a hole for the drain hose (outlet) in the siphon. By correctly connecting the drain, you will protect your premises from flooding. It is also worth mentioning one important nuance - the drain installed in the outlet under the sink should be located 60 cm above the floor level, since such a distance will not allow odors and liquids to enter the equipment.

Now you can put the car at its permanent location. Tuck the water drain hose into the back of the machine, where the special grooves are located. Place the clipper close to the wall and start adjusting the legs. Place a level on the product and adjust the feet until you achieve perfect stability. You should not rely solely on the level readings - after adjusting the legs, press the corners of the machine and see if it is stable or not. In order to understand as clearly as possible for yourself how to accurately connect a washing machine - a bosch machine or another model in the bathroom, in the kitchen or in the corridor, watch video number 2, which is located at the bottom of the article.

If you decide to install the washer under the sink in the bathroom or kitchen, remember that the height of the appliances is the most important and significant criterion. To do this, you should measure the height of the sink and, from these parameters, select equipment that fits perfectly under the sink in the room of your choice.

Placement of the washing machine

Today, people place their washing machines in various places: in the bathroom, in the kitchen, and sometimes even in the corridor. The place of her work does not really matter at all, but you just need to take into account some points that the device worked correctly and trouble-free for the maximum possible time:

        • For the kitchen, it is better to purchase a built-in model, since it will take up a minimum of space and will allow the conceived design to be implemented. But this case, perhaps, will require some skills, so it is better to hire a master who will professionally fulfill your order. In addition, it is necessary to install front-loading models in the kitchen. There is one more point that concerns the installation of a washing machine in the kitchen - this is the height of the product. For a more detailed acquaintance with the correct installation of the washing machine, you can see video number 1, which is located below.
      • When installing a washer-machine in the corridor of any company, whether it be Bosch or any other model, remember that the main installation process, in principle, is no different from a standard connection, except for laying a drain hose. It is better to hold it near the floor. The device will serve you longer if, instead of a hose to the sink, you lead a plastic pipe to a typewriter - an automatic machine, because this way you will extend the life of the pump.
      • If you decide to install the washing machine in the bathroom under the sink, then the step-by-step instructions described above will be useful for you.

Choosing the model and brand of the machine yourself (bosch, lg, etc.), remember that the correctly chosen washing machine is the one that will fit in size and all the desired functions.

At this stage, the process of installing the washing machine can be considered only half completed, because connecting this technique to the outlet will require a little more time from you. The subsequent installation process is called grounding. Its design is necessary so that neither you nor your children can succumb to electric shock, which can expose you if the washing machine is connected incorrectly. Further video (3) instructions will help you to properly organize the electrical grounding in your washing machine of any brand, including bosch, Samsung, etc.

After reading this article, you will learn how to install and connect a washing machine yourself. But before we get down to business, it's worth mentioning an important detail. Before proceeding with the installation of the machine, you need to find out if the manufacturer of your household appliance model prohibits independent installation and connection.

In some cases, the warranty may be voided. Therefore, be sure to find out more about this from the manufacturer or seller.

Most often, people prefer to order washing machines delivered to their homes. In this case, you must carefully study the purchase before confirming its receipt by signing the documents. Be sure to unpack the box or ask the delivery staff to do so. You need to carefully inspect the body of the washing machine for damage and scratches.

Some careless employees may hit the typewriter during transportation or ascending to the floor. If you find dents, peeled paint or other traces of unfair transportation of household appliances, then you can safely ask for a replacement. You paid for a new item. Accordingly, they should receive a new and undamaged one.

But most often, purchases are brought in good condition. And if everything is in order with you, then you can safely sign and let the delivery men go. If something suddenly happens, then you should have the phone number of the store where you purchased your typewriter. By calling this number, you will solve the problems that have arisen.

The first stage of installing the washing machine

And so, we have already released the delivery workers, now we move on to the next part of our work. Namely, the removal of the transport bolts. They are located on the back of the washing machine.

These bolts are required to secure the tank. And they are used so that during transportation the tank does not dangle inside and does not damage anything inside the machine. Until they are removed, the tank of the car will not be able to spin. And even more than that, turning it on in this state can lead to breakdown!

Therefore, we can remove them without any problems using a wrench or pliers. We plug the holes that appear with plastic plugs. They are present in the kit along with instructions and other things. The bolts can be saved. You may need them if you decide to move or move your washing machine. In this case, you screw them back in and protect the machine from possible damage during transport.

We strongly recommend that you carefully study the instructions attached to it before using the washing machine for the first time. This will help you avoid possible damage due to carelessness. And it will allow you to extend the operation of this household appliance.

Choosing a suitable place

Whether you are going to install the washing machine yourself or call a specialist, in any case, you need to prepare the place. The machine must correspond to the selected position in terms of volume. Simply put, it has to fit in there. In some cases, it is worth choosing a washing machine based on the amount of free space you have. If there is not enough free space, then it is necessary to measure in advance all the dimensions of the prepared space and build on them. If you have a lot of free space, then you don't have to worry and buy any model you like.

Connecting the washing machine to the mains

This issue must be approached very responsibly. For safety reasons, you need to have a separate outlet for the washing machine. The socket must be specially protected against water. In addition, it must be grounded. Modern models of household appliances, as a rule, have current protection and grounding. But it's still better to play it safe. The length of the car's wire is usually about one and a half meters. Therefore, the socket must be fairly close. Of course, you can also do with a special extension cord with a waterproof joint. But it is believed to be less secure than an outlet.

Some models may output a small voltage to the machine's chassis (if not grounded). Most often, light shocks are not dangerous. But, nevertheless, very unpleasant. Therefore, we recommend that you secure yourself and use grounding.

Do I need to connect hot water or is cold enough?

If the model allows, then you can connect hot water. But experts say that there are not many advantages from using it. Indeed, in every automatic machine there is a heating element that will easily raise the water temperature to the required level. But the disadvantages of using hot water are:

  • First, in many cities, hot water is more polluted than cold water. This means that you will need to clean the filter yourself more often or call a wizard.
  • Secondly, due to the increased hardness of this water, it will be necessary to spend more washing powder. Otherwise, things will not be washed.

If your washing machine does not have the ability to connect to hot water, then you do not have to think about this question.

We connect to water

The simplest way to connect a washing machine is to connect to the old place. That is, if you already had a car, but you replaced it with a newer one. In this case, you already have a pipe cut-in with the ability to shut off the water. We simply fasten the hose to it, which is already included in the kit, and bring the valve to the open position. Thus, we will check the quality of our connection and prepare the machine for washing.

If there are no ready-made bends from the pipe, then it will be a little more difficult. You will first have to make the necessary tie-in, install a bend, and only after that screw the inlet hose. By the way, if your inlet hose turns out to be short, then you don't have to worry, in plumbing stores you will easily find a longer one. And it is not expensive enough.

We connect the washing machine to the sewer

To connect the washing machine to the sewer, you need to buy a siphon. And after installing the siphon, we will attach our drain hose to it. The fastening of the hose must be secure to prevent water leaks.

You can also connect the drain to a cast iron pipe. You can see how to do this in the photo below.

There is also an option with draining water into the bathroom. See photo:

After you have connected your washing machine to all the necessary communications, it must be leveled. For this you need a level.

The whole process is pretty straightforward. Put the level on the typewriter, look in which direction the skew is and remove it. In order to change the inclination of the body in one direction or another, you need to increase or decrease the height of the legs. To do this, you just need to twist them in one direction or another.

After our machine has been installed, it's time for a test wash. That is, without things. Add some detergent and start the wash. When the cycle is over, you can safely throw in your dirty laundry and enjoy the fruits of your new washing machine.

Below you can watch the whole process in video format. Happy installation!
