A drywell is a hole in the ground filled with crushed stone that helps store and distribute the discharge of a washing machine underground.

In many jurisdictions it is unlawful and a washing machine must be tied into a sewer system if one is available. A drywell is a much better method if the structure uses a septic tank because the disharge from the washer will overload the septic tank.

There is no set method for installing a drywell unless a standard is adopted by ordinance. A typical size for a single family residence would be about 2 feet by 2 feet, and about 3 feet deep. This provides about 24 square feet of soil that can soak up the water.

The drywell designed above will hold about 50 gallons of water. A more accurate method of calculating the size needed could be performed if the amount of water used per cycle and the frequency of use is known. The permeability of the soil would also be a factor.

Felt made of acrylic fibers WILL fall apart when washed by machine.

Felt made of wool is actually CREATED by machine washing and drying woven wool fabric.

I haven't any experience washing felt made of polyester. Why don't your throw a small piece in with a load of like-colored laundry and test it yourself?

It is safe to machine wash a vinyl tablecloth, just make sure you follow the instructions on the tag. Do not wash with any other item and choose the gentle cycle. Usually a small amount of soap and cool water will do the trick. I use this method for vinyl shower curtains as well.

You can either flip it upside down or take the back off, depending on the model. OR

Unplug the machine (preferably after you drain it)

On most 80's - 00's washing machines there are two clips under the control panel. You need to take off the end caps of the control panel (top of the machine where the dials are) if there are any, and then you will see two screws in the lower corners. Remove these screws and flip the control panel up and hold it there. Be careful as the hinges are delicate (i.e. cheap). Using a flat tip screwdriver, insert the tip into the hole you will see both on the right and left and it should catch on the little vee of the roller coaster looking clip. Rock the driver rearward (tip moving forward) and the clips should come right out. Pay attention to how they are situated before you remove them. When you are putting the machine back together, they just push back into the hole. Then make sure any hoses that need be disconnected are. Usually on the left side is sliding pieces of plastic and under there are the soap dispenser type hoses. Unclip them - remembering which goes where and tilt the entire machine cover away from the washer.

While it's all and good to try and help someone with your knowledge of appliances, it is also wise not to give advice to a layperson who it seems to have no or little experience with major appliances and could be getting himself in way over his head. As a person who has had many years experience I would tell the person asking for advice if he is prepared to buy a new appliance, since a factory trained technician would never get involved in this; because a lot of machines have a variety of spacers between transmissions and clutches . I'd fit the machine if it is lying halfway across the basement floor my stock question was "did the burglar vandalize anything else in your home after he did this to you washer". If a technician involves him or herself in the repair of such a common enough setting he could spend a long period of time going on

call-backs.

Washers up until the last few years are fairly easy to service. The Top will flip up . Use a Wonder Bar and pry up the front corners until it unsnaps. Use a cloth or rag under the Wonder Bar so it doesn't damage the porcelain surface. Once you have done that, you can see the water mixing valve and the drum safety switch. If you need to get at the motor and transmission, take the back off. You may have to tip the washer forward to check the transmission, belt and motor. Make sure that the washer is UNPLUGGED at all times and the water supply is turned off.

I was having the same problem, and it turned out that the dryer was overheating and shutting itself off. The problem was that the exaust hose in the back was getting blocked. In my case, it blows up and out of the roof. The exaust on the roof had a screen cover that was collecting lint. Check the path for your exaust hose. Hair dryers have a small temperature controlled fuse. If the hair dryer heats up too much, the fuse opens up and prevents a fire. Covering the air inlet, or clogging can cause the heat to increase too much. While you could get the fuse replaced, hair dryers are so inexpensive that it makes them uneconomical to repair. If you are talking about clothes dryer, the problem may also be in the elecrical connections. Since dryers draw a lot of current (somewhere around 20A) they can cause connections to heat up and become resistive. Also, while the heater element in the dryer runs off 220V, the motor usually runs off 110. So, if a phase has opened up, the heater could be getting no power, while the motor is getting power from the other phase and the neutral. Or it may be that a connection on the dryer has gone bad, or that the heater simply burned out. If you can look at the dryer wiring and know what you are looking at, check it out with a multimeter. (For the love of fat kids and chocolate unplug it first!!) Dryers arn't that complex of machines.

Often times when people put down their hair dryers, the area they place them in is wet. A hair dryer holder makes it so that your electrical hair dryer does not get water in it and electrocute the person or short circuit your wall outlet.

There are a few possible reasons this would occur: - The lid switch is not working properly. - A faulty solenoid relay is not shifting the transmission into the spin cycle. - The timer which controls the solenoid relay is faulty. - The transmission itself is faulty. In rare instances with belt-driven machines, a loose/worn belt will work in the agitation (wash) cycle but be too weak to spin the tub in the spin cycle. A burning rubber smell in your washroom would be a sign that the belt is slipping and needs to be replaced.

I've done this but you must have a resource to parts appropriate for your machine, along with diagrams. There is no way to respond with exact instructions for you in this forum but this task can be accomplished with simple household tools. The best advice is to disassemble the components, making notes about the sequence, and only after getting manufacturer's information. You replace the belt and reassemble. Above all, be reasonable in your expectations of your own ability to avoid frustration. Study the problem and proposed solutions thoroughly and be prepared for venturing into the unknown.

The easiest way to do this, is to tie into the drain below the lavatory piping as it connects to the vertical pipes in the wall.Cut in the tee for the washer below the tee for the lavatory.Run the 1 1/2" or 2" pipe horisontaly to the washer location,and add a p-trap of the same size.If the p-trap is inside the wall, you will need a solid or glued trap,and if outside the wall it is fine to use a union trap.From the trap, bring the stand pipe up to 40" off the floor,for the washer drain hose.The proper slope of the pipe from the tee fitting to the trap is 1/4" per foot up to the trap, and the maximum length of a 1 1/2" pipe is 6 feet.The maximum length of a 2" pipe is 8 feet.

The place you buy if from may do it for free, if new, or charge a small fee of $50-100.oo or less. If you hire a handy man that could vary. Both appliances come with directions how to hook up. The washer is easier than the dryer. You have a hot and cold line that connects from the washer to the spickets behind the washer, they are marked on the hoses. There is another hose that goes in the back of the washer that goes to the same spot that drains the water out on the spin cycle and a plug. On the dryer there is a plug and the vent hose that goes from the back of the dryer to the vent hole in the floor or wall. Takes less than an hour to do both. This is IF you have hook-ups already in place for a washer and dryer. If not, the costs are going to be a lot more significant. The cost depends on where you are putting the washer and dryer. If plumbing and electrical lines are close by it might run you about $400-500 for everything. (water lines to the washer, drain for the washer, electrical to the dryer and vent for dryer) However, it can be several hundred dollars more if you need to run plumbing and electrical lines significant distances (20 ft or more). To make it the cheapest possible, pick a location where water lines and an electrical box are less than 10 ft away. Also, if you do it yourself, you can save a lot of money and might only spend $100-200 in materials.
