Hey everyone,
First post for this first time home owner. Our house was built in 1971 and I am at a loss on how to hook up the washing machine.
For some reason the house has a hose coming out of the standpipe in the wall that is the same size as the drain hose coming out of our washing machine. How am I supposed to connect the two? Wouldn't that cause an issue for potential backups? We have a home warranty but I want to try and avoid having a plumber tear the wall open.
Thanks!
