Why change it?

The drain hose in the washing machine is necessary to drain the used water. It is located next to the pipe and extends from the drain pump, which in turn ensures the flow of liquid into the hose. As a rule, it is made from polypropylene. This material allows it to remain resistant to high water temperatures and aggressive detergents. But, despite its high strength, replacing the hose on a Samsung machine becomes necessary over time. Let's look at the main reasons that require installing a new pipe.

Lost connection. The washing machine comes with a standard length hose. Often, to lengthen it, the owner builds it up. Most often, a break occurs at the junction.
Damage. Possible mechanical impact on the part leads to rupture of the material. Water is leaking. Replacement is urgently needed.
Congestion. Over time, scale accumulates on the inner walls of the hose, residues of washing powder stick, and water can no longer pass through the pipe.
