Description

What is a cold water inlet valve?

Water inlet valves regulate the flow of both cold and hot water into the washer as well as balance the temperature of the washer's water.

Is there a difference between hot and cold water valves?

The two are identical except for how they work. The clockwise rotation activates the cold side stem. While the hot side would activate by spinning in the opposite direction. You can use a stem with a hot side on a cold side and vice versa.

How do you know if your washing machine’s water inlet valve is broken?

One indication is a complete lack of water flow into the machine during the wash cycle, even when the water supply is turned on. Another symptom is a slow or insufficient water supply, where the machine doesn't receive an adequate amount of water to properly fill the tub. 

A malfunctioning inlet valve may also cause leakage or dripping from the valve itself. 

Is it easy to replace? 

Yes. Watch our tutorial video below on how to fit a washing machine cold water inlet valve.

This cold water inlet valve is a genuine Indesit washing machine spare part. It also fits Ariston, Hotpoint, Scholtes, and Whirlpool washing machines.

Exact match

The part was an exact match for the faulty one being replaced, very simple to fit and working fine, only issue was the delivery. I paid for next day delivery but it took two days, in fairness the extra postage charge was refunded immediately after I complained

Excellent took me 10 minutes to fit came in a Whirlpool bag so I believe it to be a manufacturers part. I had next day delivery - was a gamble on my part getting the correct bit as next step was a new machine. So glad Ransomes saved the day!

After some internet searching, the valve appeared to be the root of the problem with my washing machine. At over half the price of other online spare retailers, I took a chance and bought it. It arrived within a couple of days as stated, and installation took less than 20 minutes. It has worked a treat, and saved me a fair few quid in appliance repair bills
