FAQ’s

How to disconnect a Tumble Dryer?

To disconnect a tumble dryer you can follow these steps:

1. Switch off the power by unplugging the tumble dryer.
2. Isolate (switch off) the water supply by turning off the valves.
3. Disconnect the hose that is for draining the water supply from the standpipe or utility sink. The hose may be connected to the wall with a clamp or with a plastic or metal fitting. If so, this can be loosened with a screwdriver or by pressing the release tab and pulling the drainage hose out of the fitting.
4. Now you will need to disconnect both hot and cold hoses from the back of the washing machine. Again, if they are connected with a clamp or with a plastic or metal fitting, loosen with a screwdriver or by pressing the release tab and pull the hose out of the fitting.
5. Your washing machine should now be ready to move to your specified location.

Safety Notice: 

*** Even by following the above steps, disconnecting a tumble dryer can still be difficult. If you are not comfortable with doing so leave it to the professionals

*** Tumble dryers can be  heavy and will certainly need multiple people or specialist equipment to move once disconnected. Again, if you are not sure if this is possible leave it to the experts.

*** In some cases tumble dryers cannot be disconnected from the mains water supply due to no shut off valves being present. This will surely require specialist plumbing services.
