Washing Machine Fiasco in Logan Heights?

All washed up in Logan Heights
When something you rely on all the time, like your washing machine, fails, it makes you appreciate it that much more. When my washing machine water line broke and flooded my laundry room, I acted fast and called SERVPRO® of San Diego City SW. They mitigated the water damage quickly and completely dried the area and documented the drying process. Their quick response time minimized further damage to the floors and baseboards in the room, saving me money by avoiding a more extensive and expensive repair bill!
A study conducted by the Insurance Institute for Business Home and Safety (IIBHS) reports that a burst water line caused half of all washing damage incidents involving washing machines, causing on average $6000 in damage per incident. Here are some loss prevention and maintenance tips from the IIBHS report:
- Turn off valves when not in use.
- Consider installing a lever-type valve that is easy to operate between uses.
- Do not operate the washing machine while the home is unoccupied.
- Leave a three-to-four-inch gap between the back of the washing machine and the wall to avoid kinking the hose near the valve connection.
