AWG329 WASHER/DRYER
I had this repaired for a fixed fee ?120 from 'repaircare.co.uk'. They fixed it eventually, although they took several weeks to get parts! or so they said.
The washer dryer model above is both hot and cold fill, it draws hot water from the cylinder, most new ones are cold fill only.
Someone mentioned the washer being directly wired into the wall- no plug, being a problem. Didnt seem a problem as it was working when they finished- still is 1 year later (touch wood). I have used an electronic descaler for years and i reckon they work.
It might be worth biting the bullet, given the possible delays- there are also clauses about uneconomic repair best to talk to them before agreeing anything. I wouldnt use them again as i had to chase them more than a few times. Plus the hassle factor- past Canning Town to find a laundarette.
