I believe Susan, your drain pipe must have a clog because everything from the machine should drain away, right away from the standpipe into your system. I would try a Draino or vinegar/baking soda if on a septic right down the standpipe. Standpipes should always work fine unless there is an obstruction somewhere in the line and all other drains are fine.

I have herd about this from other folks,i cant understand what is wrong,my farm house is from the 1890s & drains in to a very old septic system & have never had a problem.iwould say something is wrong w/ your drain pipe or the force from the small opening on the end of the drain hose is putting out to much force.try cutting the drain hose back so the opening is bigger.(less force coming out of the drain hose)might help?

I used a Speed Queen TL in a hotel in San Jose, CA a few months back. It only did a spray rinse (like the domestic version's eco-normal cycle).
I used a Tide pod. It drained the wash water with no problem. But during the spray rinse/spin suds were pouring down the wall onto the floor. I took this photo:

but not much. Seems if I wash towels, I get them, ordinary clothes none. I have a rather small diameter drain pipe. |

Keep it simple, easy and breathable! Just cut a piece and place around the drain hose in the stand pipe. Soap foam stays down and the pipe can breath... CLICK HERE TO GO TO cleanteamofny's LINK |

Can I assume you meant to write "rag"? But wouldnt the weatherstripping or rag get wet and soggy from the foam? |

My whole life I used an old scotch Brite sponge tucked around the drain hose... Then 3M decided to change the sponge to that natural whatever horrible modern fiber and it was never the same anymore. |

I fail to see what is the difficulty in these simple 5 minutes fixes....
sometimes this sudsing overflow happens, to any given machine, any application, any detergent...think of members who have numerous machines hooked into several standpipes, yeah, somewhere suds will overflow on occasion...a quick and easy fix, and I move on... stuff a piece of foam in there.... wrap a rag around it... put a bead of sealant around the pipe/hose.... wrap with electrical tape.... |

the engineers for making the machine run at slow speed during the intermediate spin after wash. That's your problem! It should run at full speed through and through during heavy-duty! |

I just used an old rag and sealed it in the drain pipe. Haven't had any suds come out since then.

I tried using the weatherproof foam as someone mentioned but it is till foaming from hose. Anyone have any luck with anything else. We got a brand new speed queen. Thank you!

Be careful with that. Pushing the hose too far down into the drain standpipe can cause siphoning and the machine will never reach the target fill level and stop filling to go into agitation. Or if the fill rate is faster than the siphon rate then it will reach the target fill level but the water level will drop during washing or rinsing and it'll stop to refill, maybe several times. |
