Is the washing machine afraid of freezing? Can it freeze in winter?

Yes Because there will still be residues in the machine after drainage, when the water changes from liquid to solid ice, the volume will expand, so the liquid stored in the pipeline will expand due to cold weather, resulting in pipeline damage. The washing machine uses plastic pipe fittings, which are much worse in strength than metal pipes. Metal pipes freeze easily outdoors without protection.

The drain valve of the pulsator washing machine uses bottom drainage, and a small amount of water will remain after drainage. If the temperature of the pulsator washing machine is too low, the residual water will freeze and damage the washing machine. Drum washing machine adopts upper drainage motor, and the drainage pipe is N-type. Because the height between the top of the drain pipe and the ground is required (generally 60- 100cm), there is water residue in the drain pipe and the drain motor. If the temperature at the place where the drum washing machine is placed is too low, the residual water in the drain motor and drain pipe will freeze, resulting in freezing of the drain water. So the washing machine can't be placed in a place where the outdoor environment is too low.

How to prevent the washing machine from freezing in winter

1, put the washing machine in a hot place. The easiest way to prevent the washing machine from freezing is to put it in a place where it is not easy to freeze, that is, to prevent the washing machine from freezing at zero.

2. Drain the residual water in the drainage pump and water inlet pipe. If the washing machine is placed in a place where it is easy to freeze, in order to prevent the washing machine from freezing, the residual water in the drainage pump and the water inlet pipe must be discharged after each use.
