Hello!
Once you have decided on a room to move into,
You will probably be asked to take measurements to place furniture and home appliances.
Among them, about washing machines,
Just having a space to put a washing machine is not enough
Do you know that?
Why is it not enough? There may be many people who thought so.
This time, we will introduce important points when installing a washing machine.
We will talk about the shape of the faucet and the location of the drain .
There are three types of washing machine faucets in total.
To connect the washing machine to the faucet, you will need a part called an adapter .
① Universal faucet
The most common type.
You can connect the faucet and washing machine water supply hose with one touch.
②One -touch faucet
A type that can reduce the risk of water leakage accidents.
The water supply hose can be connected with one touch, and even if the water supply hose is disconnected, water from the faucet will automatically stop flowing.
③ Faucet with stopper (coupling faucet)
A single faucet that can be directly connected to the washing machine's water supply hose.
This comes in handy when the faucet is no longer in the correct position due to replacing your washing machine or raising it.
Even if the hose comes off,
The feature is that the water supply is stopped instantly .
Is a nipple unnecessary for a washing machine faucet?
A nipple is a part of a joint.
For the washing machine nipple , connect the water supply hose to the faucet .
This is a part that prevents water leakage.
Thanks to the washing machine nipple, you can connect the water supply hose to the faucet with one touch .
If a washing machine faucet is installed, there is no need to install a four-screw nipple as the nipple is installed as standard.
Is the location of the drain important?
Most washing machines have a drain hose that can be pulled out from either the left or right side depending on the installation location.
If there is a drain under the main unit
This drainage method is called direct drainage or direct drainage .
In these cases, you may need a raised platform , so you need to prepare in advance.
