Most washing machines including AEG, Ariston, Bosch and Smeg
will have their waste pipes plumbed to the sink U bend or in to a plumbing out
kit, that is the tiny kit that screws onto a U bend or a part of the waste
drain pipe and cuts its own hole in to the pipe as you tighten it and the
appliance outlet pipe connects onto the plumbing out kit.
Connecting your AEG Washing Machine drainage outlet pipe to the U
bend under a sink may cause back flow of dirty water in to your appliance &
this may cause both flooding & a foul smell to build up in your washer,
also it could mean that part of the water in your wash could be dirty, the
dirty back flow water from your sink can also cause the interlock to lock the
door, this might happen even if there is no electrical supply to the machine,
the locking process can often detect even tiny amounts of water.
Connecting your Ariston washer drainage pipes to a plumbing out
kit or to a U bend under a sink can also cause blockages at the point where the
washing machine drain pipe meets the plumbing out kit connector or the U bend
connector as both connectors push in to the washer drain pipe and both are
slightly smaller than the pipe causing a bottle neck affect that can lead to
blockages, this will also cause the machine to document a error and keep the
door locked together with your clothes trapped inside, to clear this issue
basically take the washer drain pipe off the U bend/plumbing out kit connector
and hold the pipe in to a bucket and put your washer on to a drain/short spin
cycle, the washer ought to empty its water and door ought to open after its
predetermined delay time, then you can clear the blockage in the pipes and
reconnect the appliance to the connector
The best way to plumb most appliance waste drainage pipes
including AEG and Ariston washing machines repair is in to a
free standing 40mm waste pipe in the event you are in the United Kingdom, the
pipe ought to be about 3 to 4 feet high and the washing machine pipe ought to
be put in the top of the pipe to a depth of about 6 inches, this is not the
most popular method but it is probably the best method that will give the least
amount of long term issues and it is also the method most washing machine
manufacturers recommend you.
