Blocked Drains Edinburgh

Are you experiencing issues with your washing machine's drain in East Lothian? A clogged drain can cause a range of problems, from slow draining to complete blockages. In this article, we'll explore the causes of a clogged washing machine drain and provide guidance on how to clean it. We'll also discuss when it's best to seek the expertise of a professional drainage service.

There are several reasons why your washing machine's drain may become clogged. Some common causes include:

• Excess detergent or fabric softener residue
• Lint and debris from clothing
• Hair and other fibres
• Blockages in the drain pipe

Before calling a professional, you can try to clean the drain yourself. Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Check the drain filter: Depending on your washing machine model, you may have a filter that catches lint and debris. Check your user manual to locate the filter and clean it out.
2. Run a cleaning cycle: Some washing machines have a cleaning cycle or a setting for cleaning the drain. Check your user manual to see if this is an option.
3. Use a drain cleaner: You can purchase a drain cleaner specifically designed for washing machines. Follow the instructions on the packaging to use the product.
4. Check the drain pipe: If the above steps don't work, you may need to check the drain pipe for blockages. You can use a plumbing snake or a drain auger to clear any blockages.

If you're not comfortable cleaning the drain yourself or if the problem persists after trying the above steps, it's best to seek the expertise of a professional drainage service.
