    Washer overflows! Help!

    I stand corrected. Parts of it are painted white to match the walls/cupboards around it.

    Washer overflows! Help!

    I didn't realize 1-7/8" is OD for 1-1/2" pipe... oops. Whoever did this job is a real dick. 1-1/2" pipe, 18" stand pipe, 57" off the floor and glued abs to pvc. We haven't torn the wall out the rest of the way down to the floor yet. Also haven't been under the house. I'm afraid to find out...

    Washer overflows! Help!

    Measuring circular things messes with my eyes bad. I assumed because it's over 1-1/2" that it must be 2" but it's looking more like 1-3/4" in my pics. This has completely f-d with my eyes though so I'll just post pics and let you decide lol.

    Washer overflows! Help!

    Ah the outside of the wall... sneaky. Thanx for explaining some of the fittings necessary also. We'll have to tear the rest of the way down the wall on Tuesday and go from there.

    Washer overflows! Help!

    Ok, here are my last ditch ideas to avoid having to move the p-trap down or the stand pipe and water lines up even higher and into the cupboards. Would either an added holding tank tied in after the p-trap or some sort of water proof bladder work? That way we can use the available space. Let...

    Washer overflows! Help!

    Damn, nothing can just be simple lol. The washer box is 57" off the floor. We just purchased a new drain hose and cut it to size since the one that came with the washer was way too short.

    Washer overflows! Help!

    That makes complete sense. Thank you. I haven't went to check IF this is even a possibility yet but if I extend both ends of the ptrap down to a more desirable length, will it drain properly? Or is the journey back up the right side of the p-trap going to pose a problem (and I HAVE to move the...

    Washer overflows! Help!

    The pipes are 2". I'm not sure why they put a larger fitting right there at the top where the water drains in but it's 2" on both ends of it. And I'm not sure what exactly you mean by stand pipe but it is only 18" from the p-trap up to where the laundry hose drains in. So we need to see if it's...

    Washer overflows! Help!

    Bought a house. Finally bought a used washer. Hooked it up and it overflows. Set up looks proper to me from what I've researched but I really don't know much about plumbing or AAV.... 2" drain pipes, p-trap, then AAV (instead of roof ventilation). Ran a snake, no clogs. Bought a Drain King...
