Yes I know it’s been like that since so moved here I don’t know how to fix it or what part I need, but do you think my washing machine is ok for now or will the water back flow into the machine?
The purpose of the loop is to prevent sink water running into the appliance. The top of the loop has to bring the hose higher than the water level in the sink when you pull the plug out. This can be done by passing the hose through a hole in the side of the sink unit right up at the top, or by fixing the hose to the worktop with a bit of string and a cuphook.
oh sorry and thanks for the help it’s much appreciated so it’s definitely ok for the hose to be higher than the actual washing machine? Oh and I don’t know how to attach the overflow to anything and my landlord just ignores me.
