Washer/Dryer

[Leroy Eckert]

Just curious, does your Splendide vent through the side of the bus or below the bus. I have heard tales of critters entering the below bus dryer vents. The lint filter is just like at home. It ain't worth a damn and the exhaust pipe needs frequent cleaning. As for the water drain, mine is the same and it has a water trap.

I just finished vacuuming behind the Splende 2000 last week and had cleaned up everything. I looked behind it once more. How did I miss that. The drain from the washer goes into a pipe stand. There is no washer or collar around it, it's just the washer drain tube stuck into a 1 ½" black pipe. Lots of room to vent back into the closet. I found one source of unpleasant odor. But that just lead to another question. When was the last time anyone changed the water hoses for the washer? Near as I can tell in my coach never. That would make them 13 years old. Nearly triple the recommended service life. New stainless braided hoses and a some sort of collar or vapor lock for the drain pipe. Now I need to pull the machine out a bit just make sure the vent tube is OK,and to install the new hoses. It did have some lint and was very dusty in there. And the beat goes on, and the beat goes on. On and on. Kurt Horvath 95 Pt 42 10AC
