Well another Hoover and a bit more modern than the keymatic!!
A Hoover ecologic automatic washer in almond. I'm sorry I don't have the model or serial numbers as my phone went flat. It was owned by a little old lady and is immaculate! It only requires a clean , the little Hoover badge and to sort out why it won't spin ? It may need new carbon brushes but I'll take any advice from you guys !! I'd love to get matching dryer or see any pics of brochures of that range? Thanks again Richard |

Very tidy, I have the white version but its the later version model numbered AC220 instead of A3954 but theres no actuall difference other than that betwen them. If you want I can scan the manual up in the week. I also have the matching dryer as can be seen in the pic, Im certain there is a beige dryer but Ive not seen one.
Will msg you about sending a Hoover badge shortly. Chris P.s Creaseguard, does that cancell the spins? Just a thought, never actually used the option on mine. |

Shall post the brochure the laborious way, so as to hopefully make it more legible. |

This afternoon I had another tinker with the ecologic , I read on an appliance site that they won't spin if there's a blocked pressure system. I took the back off and the pressure vessel pipe comes off the tub drain hose. Removing it and sticking in my finger in it relieved a gunky blockage and when all put back together it roared in to life. Ive missed the jump in spin up to 1200 sadly. It does a slight pause then full ramp up. I popped a few dishwasher tablets in the drum and did a boil wash. I was impressed with how quickly it came to the right temperature. A clean and wax of the casing and fixing the drawer flap and it's virtually like new. I'm really please with it.
It seems to be made in 1991 - I was only 18!! Richard CLICK HERE TO GO TO Ricky5050's LINK |
