Nothing can prevent the leak but maybe this detector would help find it sooner.

Here's a closeup of the ends of my Floodchek hoses. They look solid, and feel even more solid. Worth the money IMO. I took these out of service when I got the Miele.

Things fails.. I've had heard more hose fail on the rubber ones from customer vs the braided hoses. 3 years old Rubber failed on my grandmother, and after that she got me to shut off the water after washing clothes. |

A customer of ours once had a fill hose break, and it flooded the room in which she was storing family-heirloom cookbooks. She had to turn the pages one at a time to get them to dry. After that incident, she said that she would start shutting off the valves after each wash.
I have these water alarms on Craigslist, if anyone is interested. Rather ingenious device, in that it has two screws on the bottom to detect water. You could even attach wires, and keep the alarms in another room. Or run the wires outside, to let you know when it's raining! That being said, I should put one of these in my cellar, and one next to the washer, before I make a fool of myself. CLICK HERE TO GO TO Blackstone's LINK on Westernmass Craigslist |
