Did you almost slip over the leaking water again? Well, without going into technical terms and explanations, here are 5 signs that tell you it\u2019s time for you to replace that old thing.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\"><b>It\u2019s having a concert:\u00a0<\/b><\/span><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Okay, so not literally having a \u2018concert\u2019, but the noise is so over-powering that you can barely hear the TV. It\u2019s spinning so fast that it becomes unbalanced and makes loud thumping noises. This probably means that you have to re-arrange your load or that your motor mount may be loose.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\"><b>It\u2019s leaking, <\/b><b>EXCESSIVELY<\/b><b>!:\u00a0<\/b><\/span><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Another obvious sign is an overly leaky machine. The problem results from either overflowing water because it doesn\u2019t match your load size or there&#8217;s a loose connection in one of the several hoses connected to the washing machine.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b style=\"color: #00ccff;\">The water hasn\u2019t drained:\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"color: #808080;\">If your cycle has ended but your clothes are still soaking wet when you go to take them out, it\u2019s clearly because the water hasn\u2019t drained and there\u2019s most likely a problem with your water filter.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b style=\"color: #00ccff;\">There\u2019s a funky smell:\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"color: #808080;\">If you open your machine and almost get knocked out by an awful smell, that\u2019s because, over time, your machine has been collecting soap scum, dirt and other debris. This causes bacteria and mould to grow in your machine.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b style=\"color: #00ccff;\">You bought it before 2010:\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Like all appliances, they are subject to eventually wear out. Typically, you want to replace your washing machine every 8-11 years depending on how high-tech it is. Anything over this period will cause problems to arise with your laundry. So if it&#8217;s been 8 years, it&#8217;s about time to upgrade.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">If you notice any of these signs, parts of your washing machine have begun to wear out. The first thing you can do is get it checked and repaired by a professional or replaced asap!
