Valve Washer – Inlet

The inlet valve washer is a crucial component of your washing machine. It regulates the flow of water into the appliance during the wash cycle. There are two types of inlet valves: hot water and cold water. In most modern washing machines, you’ll find only a cold water valve.

Why is the inlet valve important?

• It ensures the right amount of water enters the machine for effective cleaning.
• Faulty inlet valves can lead to leaks, especially during cold weather when frozen water inside the valve can cause cracks.

How to Replace the Inlet Valve:

1. Safety First: Disconnect the appliance from the mains.
2. Remove the Top Panel: Unscrew the back panel to access the inlet valve.
3. Detach the Old Valve: Remove the connection block and unclip the hoses.
4. Install the New Valve: Reverse the steps to fit the replacement valve.

Congratulations! You’ve successfully replaced your washing machine’s inlet valve, ensuring efficient water flow for your laundry needs. 🌊🧺
