Just out of curiosity, what does "rough on clothes" mean? I haven't hooked up my new machine yet but just about everything I wash is pretty sturdy and pretty crummy. Shorts, socks, T shirts, towels and sheets and cleaning rags for the ladies. I haven't worn pants or a dress shirt in over a year...it's called "desert slumming". |

Hey Joe, it's called Silicon Valley slumming in my household!
The standpipe suds has been an issue for Dave's daughter since she got her SQ TL a few years ago. I think low sudsing "he" detergent might be the only solution. The pumps on these machines must really be potent. I remember how the water blasted out of the hose into the laundry sink from our Raytheon Amana. The pump on the Maytag 206 that it replaced didn't move the water at anywhere near the same volume.
Have you felt all around the agitator and drum for any rough spots? Alliance hasn't demonstrated the best in quality control on these machines. |

for some drain applications,
an 'anti siphon valve' helps to eliminate issues of suds coming out of the standpipe....without causing siphoning from a sealed system... I think theres mention in the install instructions of adding one if needed....
