90% of washer repairs we see in North Vancouver and Burnaby could have been prevented with these simple monthly habits.
Inspect for bulges, cracks, or leaks every 6 months. Replace them every 5 years even if they look fine. Consider braided steel hoses for extra safety to prevent flooding.
Front loaders are prone to mold. Wipe the rubber seal after every wash and leave the door slightly ajar to let air circulate properly.
Overloading puts excessive strain on the motor, belt, and bearings. If you can't comfortably fit your hand in the drum above the clothes, it's too full.
Modern machines (especially HE units) require High-Efficiency detergent. Regular soap creates too many suds, damaging pumps and sensors over time.
A washer that vibrates heavily can damage internal components. Use a level and adjust the legs until the unit is perfectly flat on the floor.
Catching a failing pump or worn bearing early saves you hundreds in repair costs. Our certified technicians provide expert diagnosis across Metro BC.
