- How to install a new Washing Machine in 7 Simple Steps. Washing Machine Installation.
In this easy to follow video I will show you how to remove your old washing machine and install a new Washing Machine. This video assumes you have all the existing plumbing and pipework in place.
Replacing a washing machine is a fairly easy task, the only problem is the weight of the washing machine and making sure you do not get any water leaks after the new washing machine installation.
Connect a new washing machine and save yourself MONEY.
This video is for installing a new washing machine and I hope that you found it useful.
I have to say I find it easier to fit a washing machine than to actually use it, luckily my Wife handles that as I end up chucking everything in at the same time and getting oddly coloured clothes back out after a wash.
Note: When adjusting the feet once you have them in the correct position then tighten the locking nuts upwards against the washing machine, this prevents the feet moving and becoming unlevel over time.

You saved me and my flat mates thank you so much!!!!!
Cool. Glad my video helped 😎
Literally the only video on YouTUbe which actually SHOWS each step and how to do it correctly!
Thank you so much for this video, now I just have to find the water lock somewhere.
Thank you. Glad it was useful to you. Also once you have adjusted the front feet tighten those bolts upwards to the frame and then it will stop it going unlevel again.
Including the most important step - the lovely cup of tea!
This is great, not only did your video teach a washing machine installation newbie how to get the job done (thank you very much), but you went the extra mile to do so with the same Bosch machine I bought. Now that's service :) !
That was handy! Remember to tighten the bolts up underneath (to keep it level), video here skip to the tighten bolts part. th-cam.com/video/L24GgdT9xq8/w-d-xo.html
I will be installing my new Hotpoint washing machine myself next week, for the first time and it seems very straight forward. I noticed how you were careful about making sure your Bosch washing macine was level with the floor, so I will be doing the same. Great video and thanks for posting.
Thank you, appreciate the comment. Just make sure you follow all the steps in this video and yes definitely make sure it is level. 😎
wow, am very happy that this video was so helpful to me, it's my first time of installing washing machine is my husband that normally do it, because he was not around, thanks so much for this video 😄😄
Great stuff, well done for installing. Don't forget to tighten up the front feet locking nuts if it's level (just tighten them upwards to the base of the machine), this stops the feet moving and adjusting again. 😎
Brilliant..was able to fit machine myself. Thank you
Great stuff. Very satisfying doing something yourself and saving money. Happy to help. Stay safe.🙂
Okay thanks
Excellent video, so simple and informative. Very concise and useful, brilliant. The next time I need to change my washing machine, I'll be more confident. Excellent.
Cool. Glad it’s useful. 😎
Great video, helped me unload the old washing machine that was here when I moved in and hooked up the one I brought with me.
Great stuff, don’t forget to tighten up the locking nuts on the front feet. Hope you enjoy your new home. 😎
Please can you send me your number
Thank you sooo much for these very clear instructions! Our washer broke while the record hot heat wave (how lucky) and I sweat like crazy because of my medication. This is my first time installing anything like this, so I am quite excited and slightly terrified. 😛☔️💦
You have such a lovely, soft, calm voice. Pleasure to listen. 🎶
If the plumbing is already there it’s reasonably straight forward, glad you enjoyed and good luck. 😎
Decent video mate. Good clear instructions and saves me paying Currys £45 for installation now 👍
Great stuff. It's fairly simple if you are just replacing a Washing machine and you have all the plumbing in place. Glad to help out. Have a marvellous week (of washing!). Thanks for visiting my channel.
One of the more helpful washing machine installatoon videos - thanks!
Cool, glad I could help. 😎
Thank you so much sir very helpful and I used all your tips and helped me installing my new Waschmaschine
Fabulous news. Glad it went well and that I could help. 😎
Such a good video thankyou so much x
Glad you enjoyed it and it was helpful. Stay safe 😎
Brilliant video, great personality as well...only watched this video and subscribed already...keep them video's coming...
Great work!!
Thank you for the comment and thank you for subscribing, glad you found it useful. 😎
Thank you very much! It was useful and helped me a lot.
Great stuff, hope it all went well. Don’t forget to lock the nuts on the feet once it’s level, although it’s not a big deal.
Excellent! Thank you very much! you just saved me a 25 euros they ask for this kind of installation! lol... cheers!
Great stuff, hope it all went ok and glad I could help. 😎
thankyou
Dung Le Glad I could help. 😎
Excellent video showing installation. You did a great job showing installation clearly. I installed a Bosch machine for my step father and was surprised they don't supply a spanner like LG do but overall he appears to be happy with his Bosch, though it can be fussy at balancing and not doing the 1400rpm spin and only does around 1000rpm when spinning a large heavy load. Only criticism I have about your video is that disappointingly you do not know how to use it lol. If you did you would be 'da man' plus you could help your wife with the laundry ;)
Glad you found it useful. Amazing that some of your washing machine videos have 250k views, brilliant. As Eric Morecambe famously said 'I'm loading all the right clothes and detergent, just not necessarily in the right order'. I can use the dishwasher but thats easy, even though I load it then my Wife comes along and re-arranges it all. Thank you for subscribing, I really really do appreciate that. Have a great weekend. Lurgs 'almost da man but not quite'.
Thanks!! Great helpful vid and you’re so fun to watch. I’ve subscribed!
Thanks for subscribing and glad you enjoyed the video. 😎
Love the ending, I love me a good cup of tea, great video tho 👌🏾👏🏾
I work faster when I know there is a cup of tea waiting! Glad you enjoyed. Have a marvellous week.
You’re video was very helpful I’ve installed my washing Machine today just by watching you’re video again thank you so much and keep up the good work! You’ve got a new subscriber 😁😁👍🏾
Shanika LIVE Great. Glad to help, thanks for subscribing and have a marvellous Christmas 🎄
Watching from America. Is it OK to drink my Dunkin Donuts original blend instead of the tea? Jolly Good!
Never heard of that brew? Is it similar to tea, sounds like it could be sweet. I would prefer a cup of tea but if you enjoy a dunkin donuts brew then why not! 😎
Thanks so much, very helpful! I just have few issues with my hotpoint one (used), when I tested it I can't see the draining working and on top of that I can see water floating and it won't let me open the door. The "keys" icon is lit on red all the time 🤷🏻♂️
Need to check drainage pipework and also the filter. If it's new to you then check it was serviced as it should all be clear with a nice clean filter.
Saved me money. Thanks
Cool. Glad it helped. 😎
Remember that the leg fixing nut must be closed
Yes I put that in the description and also that’s in my latest video.
You can relax, its a Bosch. It will only break down one day after the warranty ends.
Love your videos.
Thank you, appreciate that. Have a marvellous week.🙂
@@LurgsHowToGuides I have used a Karcher SC1 steam cleaner to clean the soap powder compartment after taking the drawer out, but the powder in there has also hardened up due to to the lack of cleaning over the years. Even the drawer has hardened soap on it.
Do you need to buy anything extra for installation or follow your guide and use the already provided kits?
A new washing machine will come with the mains cold water feed pipe and the drainage hose is built in, it should all be ready to just plumb into your existing pipework. Good luck
"there's a link in the link with a link for the linking!!!"
I was gonna reply with a link to another video I have but I thought that might tip you over the edge! Hope it was useful. 😎
Hello, lovely video. I bought a mew waving machine and tried installing it myself. I was removing the bolt when a screw fell inside, the manual did say that could happen, it also said that I should tilt the machine forward to retrieve it. I tried doing that but it is very heavy and I was not able to retrieve anything, any suggestions?
Fell inside where? What was the screw for? If it’s just in the casing somewhere then pull it out and tilt it around. Odd it says that in the manual
Sorry for all the typos, was typing really fast! I managed to tilt the machine forward with some help and retrieved the screw that fell.
Excellent clear video many thanks. I'm getting a new Bosch machine tomorrow as my 25 year old whirlpool is leaking from underneath and making funny noises lol. My old machine has both hot and cold feeds, I can turn the valve on the hot feed to close it, but the cold feed valve is stuck open (tried 3-in-1 oil but no luck). I will have to turn off the mains water supply, but that is no problem. I am worried about leaks if I remove the old cold water hose, so I'm planning to leave it in place and simply take the rubber seal off the new hose and put it on the existing hose at the washing machine end. Does this sound like it will work?
I’ve just posted a new video here which has some extra footage in about drainage and feet locking nuts so this one is better th-cam.com/video/7FXMLxVTLKU/w-d-xo.html
Personally I would never use an old hose on your new machine. Use the brand new one as it will be better and the seals will be better and less likely to leak. Just turn mains water off and install new hose then turn mains water back on slowly and check for leaks before you push it back into place.
@@LurgsHowToGuides Thanks for the reply, I'll give it a go and wish me luck lol!
Good luck! 👍
Hello Lurgs . Thanks for the video . Perhaps you can help me before I try to contact Bosch. I installed this machine last week and I decided that I would give it a wipe underneath today to try to prevent the build up of grime that had occurred with the old machine . I used a thin piece of plastic with a cloth attached and it wouldn't go in . I see that there seems to be a metal tray beneath . Is this normal or was it something that I should have removed ?. Everything is fine , it spins perfectly etc. Sorry if I'm being silly here but this would make it harder to pull the unit out in the future. Thanks in advance , Kieron.
colekeircom The only thing that you have to remove is the installation bolts, as far as I’m aware there’s nothing else. Double check your manual but I’m sure it’s nothing to worry about, they wouldn’t put something underneath to remove as it’s so heavy to lift the machine.
@@LurgsHowToGuides Thanks , Kieron
Please I need you to come and install my washer machine in gosport PO12 3NL
Would love to but I’ve got a full time job, TH-cam is my other job! Good luck
I have a stupid question. If you're connecting it to the cold water source does that mean that the machine doesn't wash with hot water?
No that's all good, only a cold water feed hose only. Virtually all modern washing machines heat up the cold water to the desired temperature, no need for a hot water feed hose anymore.
@@LurgsHowToGuides Thank you!!
OK, I have a (stupid) question. Do you not have to hook up both the hot and water??? I'm trying to figure out how to install an All In One ventless Washer Dryer . . . so if I only have to have one hook up to cold, let me know!
No not a stupid question. All modern appliances only take a cold water feed and heat up the water themselves to the required temperature
what should you do if i dont have that main "water nut" that turns of the water?
There must be a tap or lever to turn off the mains cold water feed, be very unusual not to have one. If you can’t find it then just turn off your mains water stopcock. Run a tap first to make sure it is off. When you turn it back on do it slowly.
If you can help me how to reset this washer and thank you
Only option is switch it off at the Mains or if there is a Factory reset procedure on it (check in the manual).
I just installed a new Bosch machine, but the detergent drawer isn’t emptying.. do you have an idea how to manage that?
Sara Almutairi If it's brand new that has to be a fault. Did you run a first wash without anything in it just to clear it all out, that's a drum clean or 90c quick wash.
If after that it it won't empty on a normal wash then you need to contact the place you bought it from.
Lurgs How To Guides thank you very much. I actually didn’t run an empty cycle. I’ll try it now. Thanks again! 😄
How come there was no resistance when you took the bolls out lol I’m relying with my Beko & plyers,ten more to go my arm is killing,why did it think I could this,they are so tight 😕
They shouldn't be super tight, odd. Hope you got them all off ok. Happy New Year.
Jane ,you've probably done yours by now! I'm just going to add on this incase anyone else is looking as I am fitting a Beko and they are ridiculously tight. Found that the silver bolts don't come out from the big plastic bit - so just get them to turn loose, you'll feel them able to wriggle a bit , there's about a 1.5cm of thread to give you an idea of how much you need to unscrew to disengage. Then the plasticy 'bolts'... haha turned my about 200 times as they have grip indents..note to self 'stupid', note to Beko WTF!... eventually found you had to angle them slightly , use the sticky-out silver bolt and gently push down, you'll see a gap appear between the metal machine back and the plastic bolt top, start tugging in the angled direction and then as the gap widens puh on the silver bolt in the opposite way...tugging...they will come out... bit like doing a champagne cork..bit this way, bit that. Job done! A friend just had same prob and followed these instructions ,5mins done..took me 2hrs to discover ... and now I continue to search for someone fitting the waste securely to a sink outlet rather than down a pipe!!! and Lurgs, treat yourself to a magnetic spirit level! Tess
@@tessjayne5817 Thanks ,first the auto correct,boll lol Well mine was a Beko the bolts were very tight & I only had plyers.The next problem I run in to was I turned the cold water of but it didn’t turn of ,it was broke & I had a small flood.Long story short ,NEW YEARS EVE,a man ,£40 quid & me deflated with a swelled wrist.I was going to be so proud of myself but I should have had it done,I was really upset now I look back it was silly to start 🤪🤪never mind,thanks anyway 👍🏻
@@janeburke147 oh I'm sorry...I'm just about to do the drum clean ... so fingers crossed! Heaving 11st washer in the gap was also my downfall..but wasn't gonna be beaten! Connected water and I guess there's a stopvalve just as it goes in the 'body' ,no leaks where I screwed it on, lets hope the inners work or I'll be thoroughly bleep bleep bleeping bleeped!!
@@tessjayne5817 😂😂well they say swearing relieves stress lol.Take care humping that weight,you don’t want to end up in a COVID hospital 😳Well done ,be proud ,you did it 👍🏻🤗
Whats the length of a power chord for this Bosch Washing Machine?
Knowledge Seeker I’ve not pulled it out but looking in the video at the back I’ve measured roughly the size of the machine and how the cord is and I’d say it’s 6feet long.
@@LurgsHowToGuides Thanks🙏
I have a beko washing machine at home with me
Cool. Hope it all works ok for you.
What if blue tap leaks
I think you'll need a plumber to replace the tap I'm afraid. Unless you can see where it's leaking from and try some plumbers mate paste or plumbers ptfe tape on the thread but it's probably not the thread. What a pain.
Sorry to point it out but there is one mistake in your video,after leveling the washing machine you forgot to tighten the locking nuts at the feet,you need to tighten the locking nuts upside or else it will start to move after some time
Blimey, I can’t see any locking nuts on this, hard to get to if it’s under a counter. I’ll have another look. Cheers for the info, I’ll update description if there are locking nuts.
@@LurgsHowToGuides the metal nuts at the feet you need to tighten those upwards away from feet to upside and tighten them
rohan divate Oh yeh of course. O man how did I miss that. Thanks for the info.
What do I do if I have a leak?
Danny Can you be more specific? Like where it's leaking
@@LurgsHowToGuides At the cold water feed tap.
@@LurgsHowToGuides should I use the white plumbers tape?
Danny Turn water off. Undo it fully, clean the thread on the mains one with an old toothbrush, then tighten it up again. Only hand tighten though, do not overtighten. You shouldn't need any Ptfe tape. Make sure you use the brand new hose
@@LurgsHowToGuides Still leaking. I noticed your cold tap has less thread than mine. When you tightened your hose, it covered all the thread right to the top. When I tighten my hose, you can still see half the thread. It doesn't tighten right to the top. Maybe I need to buy a extra connection?
Levelling the feet as you've shown is WRONG ,,
The nut is for tightening up against the base of the machine, AFTER, you have raised or lowered the foot, to get it level.,, (locking the rubber foot in place,),,
if you leave it like you have done, (loose), the rubber foot will gradually screw itself in, over time, as the machine is moving during spin etc... and then the machine won't be level any more, and will dance around the kitchen,, !! (and vibrate badly)...
Yes it’s in the description and also in my new video How to Install a washing machine. Cheers
@@LurgsHowToGuides
Perhaps you should get rid of this video then,, it's bad advice for someone who is looking how to install their new washing machine,??
I've got a link in the description to the new Video which covers the locking nuts. As soon as my new one overtakes this one in views I will delete it. Cheers.
