clogged filter will not cause hose to burst. Any time the water isn't filling the hoses are at the standard house pressure a clogged filter will not change this pressure.
Yup, regardless if the filter is clogged, or a valve further down is shut, the hose still experiences the same pressure. Its just a good idea to replace your hoses around as often as you notice your filter clogging, unless you have other issues which causes the filter to clog regularly
My machine was making a whistling noise. Found out that my water inlet was bad, the cause was a clogged inlet valve caused by hard water. Replaced the valve and will clean the inlet valve each year to avoid the problem happening again. Thanks for the video!
Thank you for making this video. Following your instructions, my husband and I tackled our trickling cold water line. The filter was completely caked in mostly black sediment!! 😵 I was able to clean it off pretty easily with a nylon brush, so soaking wasn't necessary. And when my husband ran a load with nothing but cold water, the trickle was now a waterfall!! 🥳 As for sorting darks and lights, I'm more careful when washing my dark and bright colored cottons, particularly my darkest blue jeans. Even though they're 3 years old, they still transferred some dye to my new Christmas pj's. Oops!
Tom I have a Maytag Commercial top load washer Model MVWP575G1. It does not fill up even with Deep Water selection. Is there a way to Hack to Fix. Plse respond asap & or anyone? Thank you
I suggest you find the guy who spliced together your video and ask him to bring the narration audio track level back to normal. This is a very basic task when video editing.
My machine has no pull out filter; instead it is a mesh screen going into the washer. It was dirty with sand and to clean it since I could. Or remove it was a pipe cleaner folded over itself a few times. This allowed me to scrape the mesh without damaging it and cleaning it well. Qtips just get cotton on the mesh and cause more of a problem. Hope this helps with the filters that cannot be removed
Good video, but audio almost too low to hear, even with YT max volume, PC max volume. I wonder why people won't screen their videos for problems before posting...
Thanks for such a helpful video. I have never separated my whites and darks, btw. Are there inlet valve screen replacements available anywhere? I looked up my washer model on an appliance parts site and they aren't even listed on the parts list.
You said clogging inlet screen can cause hose to pop. So instead of placing screen between connection and machine - why not place it between spigot and and connection?
Thank you I was able to get the screen thing out. I had to turn it up because you were talking quietly and then your Channel turn music on really loud and I had to run away from my that I was watching your channel on TH-cam well I was trying to fix the washer and watch my daughter at the same time starts bouncing back and forth. Just happened to be your music turned up well I checking in my little one have a good day I appreciate it I was able to fix it intelligent information🎉
I apologize if it's already been said but Tom installed the cold water inlet filter backwards, i.e., the tab is facing inward. Whoops! Nevertheless, a valuable message.
I have portable washer giantex, water inlet does not stop and overflows to the floor from machine :( any body any idea what could be the problem. Thanks.
The volume was so low that I cranked it all the way up and put on my headphones to hear. Then the music portion came on extremely loud and legit gave me a headache from the loud blast of sound in my ears. As good as the info was, the sound issue makes me wish I hadn’t watched
Thank you so much for telling us!! We really appreciate your input and we aim to fix our sound issues. Feel free to look through our recent videos for more content! 👍
Tom the Plumber- I'll give you another try a while from now but not now- I had to crank my volume ALL THE WAY UP and still could hardly hear you. THEN THE OPENING MUSIC NEARLY BLEW MY SPEAKERS AND MY EAR DRUMS! I can tell it is your camera person who is moving in and out that is changing the volume, but really- please fix this. I'll replace my thumbs down with thumbs up if you do. Please man. UPDATE- I needed the info so I'm listening with one hand on the mute button. At about 2:15, still on max volume, your voice is much easier to hear. Then the revving of the engine blasts me again. I won't update more, but I am watching till the end. Please, run through this video again and see if you can fix the volume. Much appreciated. Oh also, at 5:42 you put the cold filter in backwards- the little handle is now on the inside so you can't grab it 😞
Thank you SO MUCH. Single mom here. I had no clue. And I thought I was gonna have to do some shady stuff to get enough money for a new washer. (Just kidding 😂😂). WHO can afford a new washing machine in this economy. ❤
This unfortunately won't work anymore... Whirlpool in their infinite wisdom has changed the inlet valve filter design such that there's no longer any appreciable tab on the filter screen to grab and extract it from the valve.... This forces you to charge your customer an additional ~$70.00 for a completely new inlet valve assembly...
Be sure to put the filter back in the opposite way as he did. He put it back in backwards and decided to pass that on to everyone else to do the same. First time here but I won’t be watching anymore of his videos and run the risk of getting shown how to do something wrong.
Fix your volume! Had to turn my volume all the way up to hear your voice and then other sound source came on and blasted my eardrums. I didn't even bother to watch the rest of the video.

How about people stop complaining. Thanks for helping a single mom that never was taught how to fix anything! I appreciate it!
You are so welcome!
Same here!
single mom here....with a 10 yr old washing machine.....this just fixed it and saved us a lot of $...ty
Glad it helped!!
Why have i been able to hear you so well throughout the video??
Thank you for your knowledge, cheers from Uganda 🇺🇬.
Tom, good information; you may want to improve your audio portion.

Is there a reason you put the filter back in backwards?
🙄🙆
That’s the first thing I noticed, I wonder if it was by mistake.
That had to be a mistake.
Definitely a big mistake. If you put it back that way, you will have nothing to grab on to the next time you need to clean it. It'll be stuck.
Reverse water flow!🤣
All my well water people we are in this fight together! ✊🏽
😂😂😂 sameeee
Well water for life!!
Amen! It's so worth the problems though to have water that hasn't been treated and full of chlorine because it use to be sewage

Thank you for the very useful tip, Tom !! It works just fine now (the washer filling, that is) !!
Your volume is horrible, but thank you
You sir are a man among boys, a king among men. Thank you for saving me money and headaches by putting this video together.
haha no problem!
Good information, even with the audio problems.

YOU PUT THE FILTER IN BACKWARDS!!! This will dent the copper screen on the inside and make taking it out next time a pain.
I thought he put it in backwards too! I bet he turned it around after watching it! lol

Thank you for your input! We will be fixing our audio levels moving forward.
you put it back in backwards.
Looks like a great video. I’m gonna check out some lip reading tutorials and be back here to get this great information!

Thank you so much for your input!! Hopefully this helps those people with filters that cannot be removed.
Didn't say how u cleaned it
@@sharelle8500
Used a pipe cleaner bent on one end to make a loop, which allowed me to scrape the crud out.
Will this cause the machine to not continue the cycle and it shuts off like 10 minutes later? That and the clothes are still soaked
Good video, but audio almost too low to hear, even with YT max volume, PC max volume. I wonder why people won't screen their videos for problems before posting...
Really helpful Tom
Glad it was helpful!
Volume did seem low but could hear. What to do if the inlet has no screen but does have mineral build up.
You forgot to look inside , there a fixed screen in there also ..and turn the one around you just put in backwards.
Thanks for such a helpful video. I have never separated my whites and darks, btw. Are there inlet valve screen replacements available anywhere? I looked up my washer model on an appliance parts site and they aren't even listed on the parts list.
Great video. thanks
Glad it helped!
I do agree, the information is spot on. But the audio is really bad
Does washer work without valve screens, cause my water has high calcium in it, that’s why I ask?
You said clogging inlet screen can cause hose to pop. So instead of placing screen between connection and machine - why not place it between spigot and and connection?
You popped the blue cold water screen plug back in the other way around . Check video!😮
In need of help do a slow fill and long fill mean the same cause my washer keeps saying long fill
Video was plain and simple. I will not tell you the volume was way too low since so many others already said so. Jesus bless.
Dont watch this video if everyone is asleep around you. Thank you the video Tom
Thank you I was able to get the screen thing out.

Hi what if this is not working what else could we try
Thanks Tom
No problem :D
Thanks I'm doing the same thing
Thank you Jesus ... I mean .... Tom. It worked. A million thanks
Glad it helped!
I can barely hear the voice. Volume is too low and not on my end.
Great video thank you!
My pleasure!
Thank you so much!
Thank you sir!
God bless!
Dude, plumbing craftsmanship wise I hope you’re just saying thats your home for tutorial purposes
Does anyone have any advice on how to get the filter out when the part of the filter that you clamp is broken?
Check your inlet hoses
I have portable washer giantex, water inlet does not stop and overflows to the floor from machine :( any body any idea what could be the problem. Thanks.
You put that thing back in backwards
It’s called channel lock pliers
How long is slow to fill up a washing machine? Mine takes 10 minutes, it's that long?
that's normal if it takes 20 to 30 then you need to clean the filters
@@docwho10th88 My washer will fill up and then once it's done filling... it drains all the water and never agitated. Do you know what that would be?
I have the same problem, slow fill. Checked filter, very clean and clear. Problem remains.
The volume was so low that I cranked it all the way up and put on my headphones to hear. Then the music portion came on extremely loud and legit gave me a headache from the loud blast of sound in my ears. As good as the info was, the sound issue makes me wish I hadn’t watched

It would be good if we could hear you.
Btw.. You put the cold water filter screen in backwards when you re-installed it! 😂
Thank you SO MUCH. Single mom here. I had no clue. And I thought I was gonna have to do some shady stuff to get enough money for a new washer. (Just kidding 😂😂). WHO can afford a new washing machine in this economy. ❤
You're very welcome! Glad we could help 😄
The sound is way low at the bagging, fyi.
Much appreciated! ^_^
Glad to help!
Dino I cant hear you.
Awesome
You need to tell people to unplug their machine every time. Safety!!!!
What?
Audio level was recorded too low.
Now I need to get the volume on my phone fixed
Your volume levels fluctuate wildly. Had a difficult time hearing you.
good video, but sound is WAY too loud. Can't watch the video due to the loud sound bursts.
My ears! But thanks
Thank you, can you please come help me
Can't hear you. Turn up your volume.
This unfortunately won't work anymore... Whirlpool in their infinite wisdom has changed the inlet valve filter design such that there's no longer any appreciable tab on the filter screen to grab and extract it from the valve....

Had my phone up to my ear full blast then he hits us with stupidly loud music, almost blew out my eardrums
Channel locks
Awful. Check volume
Can't hear you.
You are talking a little quietly at times
Fire your video editor, sound levels are terrible
Be sure to put the filter back in the opposite way as he did. He put it back in backwards and decided to pass that on to everyone else to do the same. First time here but I won’t be watching anymore of his videos and run the risk of getting shown how to do something wrong.
Audio is terrible!! Can barely here him talk so you turn up the volume all the way up then the music comes on to break your ear drum!! ouch!!
WOW!!! Your music and sound effects are 100 times louder than your voice. Please fix that!!!!!!!!!! Hearing damage can result.
Volume sucks😊
Fix your volume! Had to turn my volume all the way up to hear your voice and then other sound source came on and blasted my eardrums. I didn't even bother to watch the rest of the video.
Oh my God! Just pull the frigging filter out dude. This is an example of how take a 30 second instructional video and talk for 10 minutes.
Bad vid. No volume
The sound is terrible. Maybe calcium buildup!
Your volume it horrible . Sorry this video was no use to me sorry
Audio levels are fine ty for making this video.
