Fixed boiler- could it have made my washing machine not work

[suzo]

Hi- Posted about this on the appliance thread so sorry if you have already read this.

Since the boiler was fixed a few weeks back, the washing machine has been making screeching noises when it fills up and drains- any other ideas as to the connection?

I can't take the racket much longer, I'm sure it's going to take off before much longer.

Get the washing machine fixed?

Thanks. I'd worked that bit out

I agree with Oilman (but a bit more lovingly ) that you should have someone take a look at your washer.

Boiler would not affect the washer that i can see.

The boiler fix may have sent debris into the hot water system.

That debris may have got caught in the in-line filters (just inside the screw connectors) and is partially blocking the hot feed.

If so - clean them.

Nice one Joe. Didn't think of that one.

Thanks for the advice.

Sorry for posting this here, did not read the posts at the top carefully, just thought it may have something to do with the boiler...!
