Regarding the "waterproof pan" of the washing machine,
Do you all know?
▼▼What is waterproof pant?▼▼
This is a tray to prevent water from leaking from the washing machine to the floor.This tray has a drain port that connects the washing machine's drain hose, and the washing machine's wastewater flows directly from the drain hose to the drain port.
----------
As I explained in the previous blog ,
The sizes of washing machines available on this sales site are as follows.
<Washing machine>
Width: Around 48cm Depth: Around 50-55cm Height: Around 85cm
In other words, the size of the waterproof pan is
If the width is 55cm x depth 55cm or more
In most cases, it can be installed without any problems !
----------
``Then, if you don't have waterproof panties with a width of 55 cm and a depth of 55 cm,
Is it impossible to install it (crying)? ”
I'm sure some of you may have questions like this.
In conclusion,
rest assured! (Almost) ready to install! ! !
In this article, we will show you how to install a washing machine storage area in several ways.
Please compare it with the situation at home!
◆Pattern 1: No waterproof pants
As mentioned above,
A waterproof pan is a tray that prevents water from leaking from the washing machine onto the floor.
As long as you don't have to worry about the floor discoloring when water leaks, and you have enough space to install a washing machine,
Installation is possible even without waterproof pans.
◆Pattern ② The waterproof pan is not large enough
・If the width is okay but the depth is not enough ・Your home looks like it was built as a two-story washing machine storage area before renovation
In this case, you may need a " raiser stand ".
After installation, the washing machine will likely stick out a little towards you.
*If the width is less than 50cm , please contact us separately before purchasing !
◆Pattern 3: There is no space to pass the drain hose
This may be common in [U-shaped] washing machine storage areas.
The drain hose may hit the wall, making it difficult to install it properly.
In this case, create a space for the washing machine from the floor using a " raising stand " .
Make it easier to connect the drain hose.
★What is a raised platform?
This is a "stand" used to raise the washing machine from the floor to create a gap.
The old waterproof pan seems to have a slightly higher circumference and corners,
Some of the most popular types these days have a height of about 10 cm at the four corners .
This part of the waterproof pan that is high is called the "raised stand."
*We are currently preparing to sell this option at our store.
Please consider this as an installation option!
◆Pattern ④ Drain port is in the middle of the waterproof pan
Similar to ③, there is no space between the main unit and the floor, so the drain hose cannot be passed through.
This also uses a “ raised stand ” ,
We will ensure a space for the drainage hose to pass through.
----------
Because it's a new life,
You want to be able to use your home appliances from the day you arrive!
If possible, please check the actual installation location before ordering.
Why not consider the option of a raised stand?
Even if your home uses a pattern other than the one we introduced this time,
