Washing Machines

It Bounces Around

Most washing machines vibrate to some degree, but if you notice a sudden increase in your washing machines vibration or it seems like it’s bouncing about then don’t panic it’s a common issue. It could be because your washing machine is on unlevel ground or because the shock absorbers have become unconnected from the washing machine’s chassis

It’s Noisy

Washing machines will make a noise when they’re in operation but if you notice a sudden increase in sound then there’s a number of potential causes. Most often it will be because some piece of debris like coins have been accidentally placed in the washing machine with your clothes.

Damaging Clothes

No one wants to experience their clothes getting damaged during a washing cycle, do they? But if you do experience this then don’t panic because you might be able to fix the problem so it won’t happen again. Like many washing machine problems clothes getting ripped can be because of foreign objects getting caught in the drum. So, inspect it carefully to see if there are any foreign objects that need removing.

Slow or Non Draining

If your washing machine suddenly starts to drain slowly and you start finding left over water in the machine after a cycle then it might not be as serious as it looks. Simply check the filter and see if there’s any blocks or obstructions, remember to carry out regular checks on the filter to ensure there’s no build-up of dirt or grime.

Not Spinning

While your washing machine refusing to spin can be a sign of motor problems or more serious issues it can also be a simple, easy to fix issue as well. If your washing machine is carrying a  load that’s too big or too small then it might not spin. So, try readjusting your load and trying again, many modern washing machines will only spin when they reach a certain weight.
