Best fittings to allow for two washing machines?

[Katia1]

Hello Bunnings team,

I have two washing machines which I want to use both of them for different functions. They both have normal inlet hoses and flexible grey outlet hoses, but my new laundry has just a single water tap and a single bypass hole on the top of the laundry sink. I saw that under the sink there are two unused washing machine waste pipe spigots. What are some options for me to get both washing machines setup and what parts would I need?

Hi @Katia1,

Thank you for your question and welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is wonderful to have you with us.

To attach the two inlet hoses, you should be able to use this BOSTON 3/4" Washing Machine Y Hose Adaptor assuming the tap and hoses match the thread diameter. They are designed to fit standard washing machine inlet hoses, so I'd be surprised if your tap and hoses didn't.

For the outlet hoses, utilising the two spigots is your best option. Check out How to connect a dishwasher which outlines how to do the exact same thing with a dishwasher as opposed to a washing machine.

Let me know what you think and if you have further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
