Washer hoses can leak and cause water damage. If you have washing machine water fill hoses that leak from behind your washer, you need to inspect them ASAP. Damaged or loose washing machine hoses can cause water leaks at the back and around the washer. Any damaged water hoses need to be inspected or replaced as soon as possible.
1. WORN OUT WASHERS OR SEALS
A common reason for a washer water hose leak is a worn washer that sits in the water fill hose. Over time these washers get “smooshed” and allow water to pass through which causes a leak. These seals or washers can be easily replaced.
2. WATER HOSE LOOSE AT CONNECTIONS
The second reason why a water fill hose can leak: The water hose can come loose from the constant vibration. If this is the case, you need to simply tighten up the water hose connection to stop the leak. Check the tightness of the connection on the washer and on the wall.
3. DAMAGED OR WORN WATER HOSES
Another reason is worn out or damaged water hoses. A damaged or torn water hose will leak out water from the back of your washer. If you have rubber water hoses, it is recommended to replace them with stainless steel braided “BURST PROOF” hoses to prevent pinhole leaks and bursting.
