Hi,
My washing machine hose that goes into a drain standpipe has been leaking a little water, when the machine goes really fast. I've tried some drain cleaner but still seems to be an issue.
I know I could try a Drain Rod/Snake - but after a visit to a plumbing centre they recommended a Twin Connector V33WM (1.5") which connects the hose to the white PVC standpipe and blocks any water coming out. Looks like it will do the job - but when I come to fit it the standpipe does not fit this.
The standpipe looks like it has been sawed and is cut at an angle - maybe this is preventing the part connecting properly with the standpipe or it could just be the wrong size.
Any ideas?
