Are you in the process of purchasing a new washer? Well before you have it delivered check the laundry valves and make sure they are working properly. If not call an Orlando plumber to replace them before you get your new washer. So if you check the laundry valves and they are not good, how does a plumber replace them? Well many people think it is just a matter of screwing the old ones off and putting the new ones in but thats not how it usually works. When replacing laundry valves most of the time the plumber will have to cut a small hole under the laundry box to remove the old laundry valves and to access the pipes underneath the old valves are secured to the box with a retainer nut and this can only be accessed from under the box. When replacing laundry valves it is a good idea to go ahead and replace both even though only one is broken. You don’t want to fix the wall and have the other one go bad so it is in your best interest to replace both hot and cold valves. Their are sometimes the valves will leak and don’t need to be replaced if the valve is leaking from the handle around where the steam is. It could only need the pacing to be tightened. If you have laundry valves that are in need of replacement give Drain Genie Plumbing Services a call at 407-710-0210.
