Common Commercial Washer Symptoms And How We Fix Them

Commercial Washing Machine Repair

At Same Day Appliance Repair, our factory trained technicians are experts in diagnosing and repairing all types of commercial laundry equipment. When your commercial washer is acting up, our team uses their knowledge and experience to fix the problem fast and efficiently. Below we explain how our technicians solve the most common commercial washer problems to get your equipment running smoothly.

  1. Washer Not Draining

    How We Fix It:
    When your washer isn’t draining, our technicians check the drain pump and hoses for blockages. We use our professional tools to clear out any debris clogging the system. If the water pump is faulty, we replace it to ensure proper drainage. We also check the control board to ensure it sends the correct signals for draining. Your washer will drain properly once the blockage or mechanical issue is fixed.

  2. Washer Won't Spin

    How We Fix It:
    Our team first checks the drive belt and motor for washers that won't spin. If the belt is worn out, we replace it with a new one. We also check the lid switch and replace it if it works incorrectly. If the issue is due to an imbalance, we adjust the load or check the suspension system to balance it out and allow it to spin correctly. Your washer will then complete its cycles as intended.

  3. Washer Leaking Water

    How We Fix It:
    Our technicians find the source of the leak by checking the door seal, hoses, and water pump. If the door seal is damaged, we replace it to prevent future leaks. We repair or replace any faulty hoses and ensure the washer drum is intact. If the leak is due to improper installation, we reconfigure the setup to prevent further water damage.

  4. Washer is Loud or Vibrating

    How We Fix It:
    When your washer makes strange noises or vibrates too much, our team checks the drum bearings, suspension system, and shock absorbers. We replace worn-out bearings to reduce noise and make it run smoothly. If the suspension system is compromised, we make the necessary adjustments or replacements to stop the vibration. This will make your washer quiet and efficient again.

  5. Washer Won’t Fill with Water

    How We Fix It:
    If your washer isn’t filling with water, our technicians check the water inlet valve and electronic sensors that control the water levels. We test the valve for any blockages and replace it if necessary. We also check the control board to ensure it sends the correct signals to fill the washer properly. Once the issue is fixed, your machine will fill with the right amount of water for each cycle.

  6. Washer Door Won’t Lock or Unlock

    How We Fix It:
    A faulty door lock assembly will prevent your washer from starting or finishing a cycle. Our technicians first check the door lock mechanism and replace any faulty parts. We also check the control board to ensure it communicates with the door lock correctly. Once the repair is done, the door will lock and unlock as it should, and the washer will work properly.

  7. Washer Stuck in Cycle or Not Finishing Cycles

    How We Fix It:
    Our team checks the control board and timer for faults when a washer is stuck in a cycle or not finishing a cycle. We troubleshoot the electronic components and replace any faulty parts so the washer can advance through its cycles. If the issue is with the door lock, we repair or replace the lock mechanism so the cycle will finish as expected.

  8. Water Temperature Issues

    How We Fix It:
    We check the thermostat, water inlet valve, and heating element for washers with temperature issues. We test these components to make sure they’re working correctly and replace any faulty parts. We aim to restore proper temperature control so your washer can clean clothes effectively with the correct water temperature.

  9. Washer Won’t Turn On

    How We Fix It:
    If your washer won’t turn on, our technicians first check the power supply, door switch, and control board. We also check the coin-operated washer payment system to ensure it functions correctly. We repair or replace faulty parts so your machine turns on and runs smoothly through cycles.

  10. Error Codes

    How We Fix It:
    Many modern commercial washers display error codes when something goes wrong. Our technicians use diagnostic tools to read the codes and find the problem, whether drainage, water levels, or sensor malfunctions. Once we identify the issue, we repair or replace the parts to fix the problem and clear the error code.

Deciding Between Repair and Replacement

Commercial Washing Machine Repair

Our experts help clients decide whether to repair or replace their commercial washers based on age, repair costs, and energy efficiency when considering commercial laundry equipment repair. If repairs exceed 50% of the price of a new machine or if frequent breakdowns impact your business, we may recommend replacement. We also consider the benefits of upgrading to more energy-efficient models.

Steps to Make a Decision
  1. Assess the Condition: Conduct a thorough assessment of the washer's current condition, including any existing issues and overall performance.
  2. Get a Professional Opinion: Consult a qualified technician for an accurate diagnosis and repair estimate. They can also provide insights into the washer's remaining lifespan.
  3. Calculate Costs: Compare the total cost of repairs (including potential future repairs) against the cost of a new washer, factoring in efficiency savings and potential tax incentives for energy-efficient appliances.
  4. Consider Financing Options: Explore financing options for purchasing a new washer. Some suppliers offer leasing and financing options that can make replacement more affordable.

Deciding whether to repair or replace a commercial washer involves evaluating various factors including the machine's age, repair costs, efficiency, performance, and impact on your business operations. By carefully weighing these considerations, you can make an informed decision that balances immediate costs with long-term benefits, ensuring the optimal performance and reliability of your commercial laundry equipment.

What should I do if my commercial washer is leaking?

︾
︽

If you notice your commercial washer is leaking, it's important to address the issue promptly to prevent further damage and operational downtime. Here are some steps you can take:

  1. Inspect Hoses and Connections: Check the inlet and drain hoses for any signs of cracks, splits, or loose connections. Tighten any loose fittings and replace damaged hoses.
  2. Examine the Door Seal: A common cause of leaks is a damaged or worn door seal. Inspect the seal for any tears or debris that might be preventing a proper seal. Clean the seal and replace it if necessary.
  3. Check the Drain Pump: The drain pump may be clogged or malfunctioning. Clear any blockages and ensure the pump is operating correctly.

Why is my commercial washer not draining?

︾
︽

If your commercial washer is not draining, it can disrupt your operations and cause significant inconvenience. Here are a few common reasons why this might be happening:

  1. Clogged Drain Pump Filter: Over time, lint, debris, and small objects can clog the drain pump filter, preventing water from draining properly. Check and clean the filter regularly to ensure smooth drainage.
  2. Blocked Drain Hose: A kinked, clogged, or improperly installed drain hose can obstruct water flow. Inspect the hose for any blockages or kinks, and ensure it's correctly positioned.
  3. Faulty Drain Pump: The drain pump itself may be malfunctioning due to wear and tear or electrical issues. A faulty pump might need to be repaired or replaced by a professional technician.
  4. Defective Lid Switch: For top-loading washers, a defective lid switch can prevent the washer from entering the drain cycle. Ensure the lid switch is functioning correctly and replace it if necessary.
  5. Improper Load Balance: An unbalanced load can cause the washer to stop mid-cycle, affecting the drainage process. Make sure to evenly distribute laundry in the drum.
  6. Electrical Issues: Problems with the washer's control board or wiring can also prevent the drain cycle from initiating. These issues typically require the expertise of a trained technician.

At Same Day Appliance Repair, our factory-trained technicians specialize in commercial laundry equipment repair. We can quickly diagnose and resolve any drainage issues with your commercial washer, minimizing downtime and ensuring your equipment operates efficiently.

What does it mean if my commercial washer displays an error code?

︾
︽

If your commercial washer is displaying an error code, it typically means that the machine has detected a problem or malfunction that needs to be addressed. Error codes are designed to help diagnose and troubleshoot specific issues with the washer. Here’s what you can do:

  1. Consult the Manual: Refer to the user manual or service guide that came with your washer. It usually contains a list of error codes and their meanings, along with recommended actions to resolve the issues.
  2. Reset the Machine: Sometimes, turning the washer off and then back on can reset the system and clear temporary errors. Unplugging the machine for a few minutes before plugging it back in may also help.
  3. Check for Common Issues:
    • Power Supply: Ensure that the washer is properly plugged in and receiving power.
    • Water Supply: Make sure the water supply valves are open and the hoses are not kinked or blocked.
    • Load Balance: An unbalanced load can sometimes trigger error codes. Redistribute the laundry evenly in the drum.

What should I do if my commercial washer is making strange noises?

︾
︽

If your commercial washer is making strange noises, it’s important to address the issue promptly to prevent potential damage and ensure the machine continues to operate efficiently. Here’s a step-by-step guide on what to do:

  1. Identify the Type of Noise:
    • Banging or Thumping: This could indicate an unbalanced load.
    • Grinding or Squealing: This might suggest issues with the bearings, belts, or motor.
    • Clicking or Rattling: Loose objects like coins or buttons could be lodged in the drum or pump.
    • Humming or Buzzing: This could be related to electrical issues or a blocked pump.
  2. Check for Obvious Issues:
    • Unbalanced Load: Stop the washer and redistribute the clothes evenly in the drum. Overloading or underloading can cause the washer to become unbalanced.
    • Foreign Objects: Inspect the drum and drain filter for any loose items that might be causing the noise.
  3. Inspect the Washer:
    • Drum and Agitator: Check for any visible signs of wear or damage.
    • Belts and Pulleys: Look for loose or worn belts and pulleys, which might need tightening or replacement.
    • Bearings: Listen for a grinding noise which could indicate worn bearings. This typically requires professional repair.
  4. Run an Empty Cycle: Running a short, empty cycle can help determine if the noise persists without a load. This can help isolate whether the issue is with the washer itself or the laundry.
  5. Consult the Manual: Refer to the washer’s user manual for any specific troubleshooting tips related to noise issues. The manual often provides helpful diagrams and instructions.
  6. Contact a Professional: If the noise persists or you identify a problem that you’re not comfortable fixing yourself, it’s time to call in a professional repair service like Same Day Appliance Repair. Provide them with details about the type and timing of the noise to help diagnose the issue more efficiently.

By following these steps, you can often identify and resolve the cause of strange noises in your commercial washer. If professional assistance is needed, don’t hesitate to reach out to ensure your machine is repaired correctly and promptly.

Can power surges affect my commercial washer?

︾
︽

Yes, power surges can affect your commercial washer and potentially cause significant damage. Power surges, which are sudden increases in voltage, can occur due to lightning strikes, electrical grid issues, or even large appliances cycling on and off. Here’s how power surges can impact your commercial washer and what you can do about it:

How Power Surges Can Affect Your Commercial Washer:
  1. Electronic Control Board Damage: Modern washers often have electronic control boards that can be sensitive to voltage fluctuations. A power surge can burn out these components, leading to malfunctions or complete failure.
  2. Motor and Pump Damage: The motor and pump are essential parts of your washer. Power surges can cause these components to overheat or short circuit.
  3. Sensor and Timer Issues: Power surges can disrupt the sensors and timers within the machine, causing errors in cycle timing and water levels.
  4. Electrical Wiring Damage: Surges can damage the internal wiring of your washer, potentially leading to electrical shorts and fire hazards.
Preventive Measures:
  1. Surge Protectors: Install a high-quality surge protector specifically designed for appliances. This can help absorb excess voltage and protect the internal components of your washer.
  2. Dedicated Circuit: Ensure your commercial washer is on a dedicated electrical circuit to reduce the risk of electrical interference from other appliances.
  3. Regular Maintenance: Periodic inspections and maintenance can identify and address potential electrical issues before they become major problems.
  4. Unplug During Storms: If possible, unplug your washer during severe thunderstorms to protect it from lightning-induced power surges.
What to Do After a Power Surge:
  1. Inspect the Washer: Check for any visible signs of damage, such as burnt components or a tripped circuit breaker.
  2. Turn It Off and On: Sometimes, a simple reset can resolve minor issues. Turn off the washer, unplug it, wait a few minutes, and then plug it back in and turn it on.
  3. Check for Error Codes: If your washer displays an error code after a surge, refer to the user manual to understand the issue.
  4. Contact a Professional: If you notice any persistent issues or if the washer won't turn on, it’s best to call a professional repair service like Same Day Appliance Repair. Experienced technicians can diagnose and fix any problems caused by the power surge.

By taking these preventive measures and knowing what steps to take after a power surge, you can help protect your commercial washer and ensure it continues to operate smoothly. If you need professional assistance, Same Day Appliance Repair is here to help with prompt and reliable service.

Why is my commercial washer not spinning properly?

︾
︽

If your commercial washer is not spinning properly, it can be due to a variety of issues, ranging from simple fixes to more complex mechanical problems. Here are some common reasons why your washer might not be spinning correctly and what you can do about it:

Common Reasons and Solutions:
  1. Unbalanced Load:
    • Cause: If the load inside the washer is unbalanced, it can prevent the drum from spinning correctly.
    • Solution: Stop the washer, open the door, and redistribute the clothes evenly. Avoid overloading or underloading the machine.
  2. Lid Switch or Door Lock Issues:
    • Cause: Many washers have a lid switch or door lock mechanism that must be engaged for the washer to spin. If this switch is faulty, the washer may not spin.
    • Solution: Check if the lid switch or door lock is functioning properly. If it is damaged, it may need to be replaced.
  3. Drive Belt Problems:
    • Cause: The drive belt connects the motor to the drum. If the belt is loose, worn, or broken, the drum won’t spin.
    • Solution: Inspect the drive belt. If it appears damaged or loose, replace it with a new one.
  4. Motor Issues:
    • Cause: Problems with the motor can prevent the drum from spinning.
    • Solution: Check if the motor is running. If it’s making noise but not turning the drum, the motor might be faulty and require professional repair or replacement.
  5. Clogged Drain Pump:
    • Cause: If the washer cannot drain properly, it might not spin. A clogged drain pump or hose can cause this issue.
    • Solution: Check the drain pump and hose for blockages. Clear any debris and ensure the drain path is unobstructed.
  6. Faulty Control Board:
    • Cause: The control board manages various functions of the washer, including the spin cycle. If it’s malfunctioning, the spin cycle may not initiate.
    • Solution: If you suspect the control board is faulty, it may need to be inspected and replaced by a professional technician.
  7. Bearing or Pulley Issues:
    • Cause: Worn-out bearings or damaged pulleys can prevent the drum from spinning smoothly.
    • Solution: Inspect the bearings and pulleys for wear and tear. Replacing these parts may be necessary.
What to Do Next:
  1. Safety First: Always unplug the washer and turn off the water supply before inspecting or attempting repairs.
  2. Consult the Manual: Refer to your washer’s user manual for specific troubleshooting tips and guidance.
  3. Professional Help: If you’re unable to diagnose or fix the problem yourself, it’s best to contact a professional repair service like Same Day Appliance Repair. Our experienced technicians can quickly identify the issue and perform the necessary repairs to get your washer back in working order.

By addressing these common issues, you can often resolve problems with your commercial washer not spinning properly. If you need expert assistance, don't hesitate to reach out to Same Day Appliance Repair for prompt and reliable service.

How can I prevent mold and mildew in my commercial washer?

︾
︽

Preventing mold and mildew in your commercial washer is crucial to maintain its efficiency and ensure sanitary conditions. Here are some tips to help you prevent mold and mildew buildup in your commercial washer:

  1. Regular Cleaning:
    • Wipe Down: After each use, wipe down the door, gasket, and drum to remove any residual moisture.
    • Clean Dispensers: Regularly clean detergent and fabric softener dispensers to prevent residue buildup.
  2. Leave the Door Open:

    Air Circulation: Leave the washer door and detergent dispenser drawer open between uses to allow air to circulate and dry out any remaining moisture.

  3. Use the Right Detergent:

    HE Detergent: Always use high-efficiency (HE) detergent in the proper amount to reduce soap residue, which can contribute to mold growth.

  4. Run Maintenance Washes:

    Hot Water Cycle: Periodically run an empty cycle with hot water and a bit of bleach or a specialized washing machine cleaner to kill any mold spores.

  5. Inspect the Gasket:

    Clean and Dry: Regularly inspect and clean the rubber door gasket. Mold often starts here due to trapped moisture and detergent residue. Use a cloth to wipe it dry after each use.

  6. Check Filters and Drains:

    Routine Maintenance: Ensure that the washer's filters and drains are clean and free of debris. Blocked drains can lead to water pooling, creating a breeding ground for mold.

  7. Proper Ventilation:

    Ventilation System: Ensure your laundry area is well-ventilated. Proper airflow can help reduce humidity levels, decreasing the likelihood of mold growth.

  8. Professional Maintenance:

    Regular Service: Schedule regular maintenance checks with a professional technician to ensure your washer is in good working condition and to address any potential issues before they become serious.

By following these tips, you can significantly reduce the risk of mold and mildew in your commercial washer, ensuring it remains clean and operates efficiently. If you encounter persistent mold issues or need professional assistance, don't hesitate to contact Same Day Appliance Repair for expert service and advice.
