Hotpoint Washing Machine Drain Hose And Eco Ball
1. Drain any excess water
If your machine has an emergency drain hose, drain any excess water. The drain hose is usually found next to the filter at the bottom of the machine. It may be behind the kick plate. This machine doesn’t have one.
2. Remove old sump hose/drain hose with eco ball
Lay some towels on the floor to protect both the washing machine and the flooring, and gently lay your machine on top. If the machine is heavy, ask for help when laying down and lifting up your machine.
The sump hose, or drain hose, is accessed from the bottom of the washing machine.
The screw for the clamp circled here, needs to be loosened for us to remove the sump hose from the drum.
Either loosen with a Phillips head screwdriver or a socket.
This part of the sump hose can then be removed from the drum.
With your pliers, squeeze the wire hose clamp together and lift it up as shown. This will allow you to remove the rest of the sump hose from the pressure chamber in a second.
Repeat the process on the wire hose clamp that’s around the hose on the drain pump.
Then remove the hose from the drain pump.
Remove the hose which is attached to the pressure chamber.
Your old sump hose can be removed from the washing machine.
3. Install new sump hose/drain hose with eco ball
Some sump hoses come with the clamps and clips included, some don’t. So always keep hold of the clamps from your old sump hose.
Unpackage your new sump or drain hose
The large hose clamp holds the part of the sump hose that connects to the drum in place.
The black wire hose clamp holds the sump hose to the pressure chamber.
The silver wire hose clamp holds the sump hose to the drain pump.
Attach the new sump hose.
Make sure the main hose clamp is accessible to tighten.
With either your socket, this one is 7mm, or your screwdriver, tighten the clamp. You’ll see it start to squeeze together.
With your pliers, squeeze the wire hose clamp together and slide them down over the rubber so the hose is securely attached to the pressure chamber.
Repeat the process for the wire hose clamp, attaching the hose to the drain pump.
And that’s it, your new sump hose is all set to go!
