Second week of full timing. First trial of the washing machine last week we overflowed all over. The hepvo valve in the discharge line wasn’t opening to let the water pass. I put a piece of hose in the discharge pipe and blew. It “popped” open and drained fine. Next two loads worked like a champ. Starting another load today and am nervous it will be stuck closed again. So my question is, are these reliable valves or do I need to babysit them each time? Or maybe it had sat from the manufacturer for several months to cause the issue? It is a 2019.
