I am not trying to get an answer to my liking. However, I have raised many questions above, and only few were answered anyway. I am thinking I would need to find a physicists' forum to get most of my questions answered. Plumbers seem to look for answers only in their codes, but seem to have...

I all sounds very nice with the licensed plumbers, however, they seem to have their hands tied bu the code, which seems to ask for a 2'' drain piping if you want to drain a washer. And I doubt that this rule differentiates between washers with different capacities etc. I have doubts that the...

This is exactly why I asked for opinions here - I was afraid some of the plumbers I contacted are more like handymen who would take the cash for the work but leave me with troubles to deal. Now I also see what you meant regarding the standpipe. I had no idea it should be measured from the...

Just to clarify: the black line on picture 3 is over the current drain of my washer. And below are extracts of the washer's manual.

Hello, I am happy that I found this forum. But I am not a pro, so I did not understand all of the stuff that I have read here so far, and could not find a solution to the problem that I face. So I hope you could help me. I would like to install a 24'' front load washer in the place of the...

Does this plumbing code differentiate between the different types and sizes of washers? I am asking, because I am trying to get a plumber install a compact, 2.2 cu ft., 24'' wide, front load washer in the place of my dishwasher in my kitchen. And despite the fact that the washer's manual asks...
