Any thing I should save off my old washing machine?
Comments (18)Kathy, you won't recognize these names unless you read Texas Gardening forum, but Roselee, on the advice of Honeybunny, bought five washer drums for planters in her yard. I think I could find some pictures for you, if you'd like. Even though there are holes in the side, they are pretty small. I don't think she's had any issues with them. But if you'd like, you could always line it with some screening. They look really cool and I'm hoping I can find some myself ! Definitely keep the inside drum ! And take the rest to a recycle place. Should get you about $20 ! email me directly if you'd like to see some pictures of these already planted in Roselee's yard. Be happy to show you ! patty...See MoreInstallation of washing machines and stand pipes,etc
Comments (1)What is the diameter of your existing standpipe? If it is 2" and you don't have any problems with slow draining, the 17 gallon minimum shouldn't be a problem. The 39" minimum height is probably to ensure that no water is siphoned out of the washer. I'd be willing to bet that you wouldn't have any problem with a 34" standpipe, but if you did, a plumber could easily splice a 6" section to the top of your exisiting standpipe....See Moreany washing machine experts out there?
Comments (11)I hate to sound like a broken record but I use Google to find the answer to all sorts of household and automotive problems. I've saved myself lots of money over the years by either doing something myself or knowing enough about the problem to not let a repair person take advantage of me. Knowing the make and model of your washer will help narrow the answer down. Impress your DH with the solution to the problem so he doesn't have to spend extra time trying to figure it out from scratch. Like I said before, sometimes the same issues come up over and over with the same make/model of washer, just like with cars. Sometimes people are intimidated by Google but it is very easy to use. I would suggest using the brand name in your search. I found out that with my Maytag that a problem with not spin drying was common even with new machines. YouTube is also a good resource for learning repair. Sometimes reading how to repair something is not as good as actually seeing it done. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=washer+does+not+spin+dry&aq=f&aqi=g1g-m1&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai= Here is a link that might be useful: Fix...See MoreWant to buy a dishwasher for just washing wine glasses - any advise?
Comments (32)@Ron Natalie: "Rightfully so. Kitchenaid only sold the rebranded FP drawers which were maintenance nightmares (in addition to the fact that despite the neato factor, are a pain in the butt even when they work)." That is not correct. The first generation KA drawer units introduced circa 2004, KUDD01 models, were rebadged F&P. Second generation KA units, KUDD03 models (there was no KUDD02) were not sourced from F&P. They were a completely different design Whirlpool got with the purchase of Maytag in 2006. F&P did not produce them. Fulgor was involved in the manufacture if I recall correctly. KUDD01 service manual is document KAD-9 "Drawer Dishwasher" in Whirlpool's tech library. KUDD03 service manual is document KAD-10 "2008 Drawer Dishwasher." Try searching for those documents, and also search for parts diagrams, to see the differences in the design vs. F&P. It doesn't use the SmartDrive motor, has separate electric circulate and drain pumps. Has a turbidity sensor for a soil-sensing function (F&P does not). Has a whirly-gig manifold mounted on the back of the tub that sprays forward over the dishware, fed by a hose routed on the exterior from the circulation pump. A formed heating element similar to a frontload washer vs. F&P's flat/disc ceramic element. Among other differences This other design was also sold under the Kenmore Elite brand (both single- and double-drawer models), check parts diagrams for models 465.13333, 465.13339, 465.13342, 465.13343, 465.13349, 465.13322, 465.13323, 465.13329. 465 is Sears manufacture code for Maytag/Jenn Air sourcing...See Morecpartist
