Maybe you just got a new washer or dryer and want to install it yourself, or perhaps you're moving and want to save a fee from the moving company. Whatever the case may be, this project is pretty easy to do yourself with only a couple of tools.

Thank you I just found out my movers won’t unhook appliances without a fee. Let me tell you how empowered I felt when the first video that pops up is a woman doing it herself! Thank you!

This is the most helpful video on moving the washer and dryer I’ve found…I’ve been dreading doing this myself and was ready to fork over the extra few hundred to have someone else do it for me, but now I’m feeling pretty confident that I can do it myself. Thank you!

Thank you for this video! I saw a woman’s face with six minutes and knew this was video for me!! Thank you for making this so easy!! 💕🙏 (I learn from everyone, of course, but something about being a woman learning from a woman how to ‘fix-it’ felt really good.)

Thank you so much, the store said they wouldn’t be disconnecting or installing anything because of covid... only delivery of new one and pick up of old one. Weird because when the delivery driver showed up he asked if I wanted him to install it for us... I said hey they told me I had to do it myself, and I'm already here, it's very easy, which he said yes it is very easy! My dad was supposed to do this for my grandmother but he was busy working so I volunteered to do it. She was yelling at me every step of the way to stop and wait, she insisted we needed a man or professional to do it. I said listen, I watched this RU-vid video it’s very easy!!! She didn’t trust me at all, and there was a bit of a language barrier with her at the same time. I was worried the old one wasn’t completely drained... every time I tipped it, water poured out of the back (I was told I had to remove all the hoses from the back as well, I didn't know about the clamps, so had a bit of trouble squeezing it off). Delivery driver explained that’s okay you can never completely drain them. And then the new drain hose was actually a bit shorter than the old one, I had a lot of trouble reaching it to the drain, but I was able to force it in. I don’t think she will use it until my dad comes by to inspect, but I know I did it all correctly! The irony is when he “fixed” our washer he actually mixed up the hot and cold pipes... it says hot and cold on the back, hot and cold behind the knobs on the wall, this is fool proof! I'm mentally exhausted from just her hovering and insisting I should give up, but I persisted because I felt inspired by this video :p

I'm so sorry I didn't respond to this until now! So glad that this video was helpful to you, and to your grandmother! I kind of hate that your grandmother didn't think that you (or she) could do it on her own, but I'm also glad that you proved it wrong!
@estycki
@estycki 3 года назад
​@@ChickFixUSA She is VERY old fashioned, always had someone else do these things for her. My dad came over later and changed the drain hose for a longer one... and he asked me "What are all these clamps for by the way?" while holding them in his hands - I said "You need the clamp on to secure the pipe or it will leak!" Haha so a reminder that some people are very good at looking like they know everything...

Heard when you unscrew hose with your vice grips, to make sure you only grab at the front of the metal where the grooves are and not to clamp beyond that because then you will actually crimp it onto the threads of your water connection. Just learned that from someone else on youtube. Be careful. At those prices, definitely is a job worth doing on your own. Out with the good old days of true service. You buy a washer from some one that is a service they should provide without question.

Thanks for this video. My husband was blinded and further disabled by a stroke and now I need to learn these things. Just to verify, in regards to lefty loosey and righty tighty....lefty loosey would be turning the water off and righty tighty would be turning it on? I'm scared to death to try this, but I have no choice. Part of our house was destroyed in the winter storm and those repairs have drained the bank balance. I can't afford to pay anyone else to do it. As freaky as things are in this house, I'm afraid I'm going to have another water explosion in this house when I try to disconnect this washer. Thank you again for this video. Have a blessed Easter.

There will just be an extra step to shut the gas off at the valve before disconnecting the gas line. I'm sure there's a video out there somewhere about that.

When you unhook the hoses, do you leave them connected to the washer & lay them in the washer after draining or do you remove those as well?

@ChickFixUSA
@ChickFixUSA 3 года назад
Well I don't have one, so take this with a grain of salt.... But as long as you shut off the valve on the gas line before you unscrew the dryer from it, you should be fine. There should be a shut-off valve right there on the line coming from the wall.

I've just noticed that my hot water valve (identical to the set up you have) is leaking a slight bit, and rusty stains are forming. Is it difficult to replace this part? I watched your RU-vid video on freezer problems and fixed mine this morning on my own. So, now I'm feeling pretty empowered to try fixing more problems in my home without having to make service calls and paying out MORE money.
@ChickFixUSA
@ChickFixUSA 3 месяца назад
Thank you for watching! Yes, it's possible to fix that yourself, although you'll want to make sure you turn the water off inside your home when you do it. (I have a video for this as well!) You should be able to buy that part at Home Depot or another home improvement store. Is it leaking from the connection point to the line to the washer, or from the stem?

Today I learned that with hot and cold switch turn to the On position, my washer works great. Turning hot and cold to Off, my washer works great. Turning the red and blue knobs does not turn off the water! Not sure what purpose they serve, as they look like water disconnect switches.

New subscriber. I do a lot of my own stuff, but continue to learn. I wanted to find a woman's channel. Notice how you clean up the mess under the washer? Men traditionally forget the details like cleaning and organization! How many times have I heard a guy say where is this? Where is that? We tend to keep our things together so that when we need them they are right there. 😘
