Electrolux front loader washers are some of the most popular machines on the market, but they can also be some of the most difficult to clean. If your pump filter becomes clogged with lint and debris, it can cause all sorts of problems with your machine. Fortunately, cleaning the pump filter is a relatively simple process that anyone can do. In this blog post, we will show you how to clean your Electrolux front loader washer’s pump filter in just a few easy steps.
One of the easiest ways to keep your filter clean is to not get them dirty in the first place. Be sure to empty out any pockets before you wash your clothes to prevent loose items from falling into the filters and causing problems later on. You can give your clothing a once over with a lint roller before wearing them to help prevent lint buildup and to remove hair, which can also clog filters.
A water filter pump is an important component of a washing machine. The water filter pump is responsible for keeping debris from entering the pump as it is removing water from your washing machine during the draining cycle.
Over time, the pump filter can become clogged with lint, dirt, and other debris like coins and hair. When this happens, your washing machine won’t be able to drain properly and will leave your clothes wet at the end of the cycle, or even leave water in the drum. By regularly cleaning the pump filter, you can help extend the life of your washing machine and ensure that it continues to run smoothly.
You should clean your washing machine’s water pump filter at least once a month, maybe more if you wash a lot of laundry frequently.
Most older model washing machines have a lint filter that helps to remove lint, hair, and other debris from clothing. The filter works by trapping lint and other small particles as water drains from the washing machine. Many lint filters can be easily cleaned with a brush, or washed. However, over time, the filter may become clogged and need to be replaced. A clogged lint filter can cause a washing machine to overheat and may even damage clothing. For best results, it is important to clean the lint filter on a regular basis (about four times a year) and replace it when necessary.
If your washing machine isn’t draining properly, it’s likely because one (or both) of these filters is clogged. Fortunately, you can easily clean them both yourself without having to call a repairman.
You will need:
Note: If your washer is not draining, there will be a lot of water and a bucket may be better than a low dish.
Periodically cleaning your washing machine’s pump filter will help to keep your machine running smoothly for years to come.
The location of the lint filter can vary by model and by the age of your machine. Many newer machines have combined the lint filter and pump filter. Read the process above to clean this type of filter.
Now that you know how to clean your Electrolux front load washer’s pump filter and lint filter, it’s important to keep them both clean for optimal performance. Make sure to check the filters every few months and give them a good clean whenever they start looking dirty. By following these simple steps, you can help ensure your Electrolux front load washer continues working its best for years to come.
