Please share suggestions for anti-Walk/ anti-Slip feet for a SQ TL. We have a polyspartic coated concrete floor and the machine walks all over. We leveled it front to back and side to side using a bubble level. HP Spartacote Polyaspartic is similar to an epoxy floor but supposed to be more durable. We'd prefer bare concrete but the prior owner put in a big box store epoxy coating that was peeled off and we had to have that ground off and the polyspartic installed.
For the last year and a half, we used the vibration Solutions Sorbothane Anti-Vibration Pads but they've started to fall apart so we're looking for alternative solutions. The SQ TL AWNE92SP113TW01 feet disintegrated but the ones on the SQ Dryer ADGE9RGS113TW01 are just starting to split. The Sorbothane feet pads kept the machine from walking but we didn't notice much reduction in vibration. Vibration solutions do advertise a 10-year warranty but we haven't been able to reach them, through their support e-mail and their phone rep took our info but no one has called back. |

Thanks, know anyone that sells the SQ sells oversized anti-walk rubber pads? Also, think full-size anti-slip may could help. Riser mounted into concrete would definitely work but like to try a few more things before I start drilling into concrete.

How about a heavy rubber mat? |

Going to try heavy rubber Washer/Dryer Mats. They're 28" x 34" and my machines are 25 5/8 "x 28". Also looked at rubber cal mats large enough to cover both machines. Most of these mats are made out of old truck tires. Rubber flooring inc says they use a part of the tire that doesn't have metal and run magnets by to get metal out that finds it's way into the mix. Any of these rubber mats would probably work.
I was reluctant to get a mat because it's going to be tricking to install in the alcove were the washer dryer sits. But I need to pull the machines out anyway so I can clean the dryer ducting, check connections, and clean the floor before the rubber mats go down. Rubber feet do dry out and do need to be inspected. rubbercal.com/elephant-bark-rubbe... www.rubberflooringinc.com... CLICK HERE TO GO TO dylanmitchell's LINK |
