    Speed Queen TC5 Anniversary and sudsing issue.

    Panasonicvac Yes thanks, that was Mark Mark's suggestion. I replied in reply 7 that I would have to figure out a way to do that, can't really stuff anything in mine due to space, but it should be workable. It came with one of these plugs, but the SQ hose extension end I needed to use won't...

    Speed Queen TC5 Anniversary and sudsing issue.

    How is a plumber going to make that work without replacing the main drain pipe? Now it's add a second stand pipe. There is no space between any fittings. If you cut a fitting, you need some pipe left to attach any new fitting to. And why wouldn't the second pipe suds over too? While I...

    Speed Queen TC5 Anniversary and sudsing issue.

    Reply #13 I don't think I could add much to the pipe, it's about 6" from the joist. I wouldn't have room to get the washer hose in and out. Also a bunch of wiring up there, just out of view, running between all the joists. The hose still wouldn't be straight, since it comes straight out of the...

    Speed Queen TC5 Anniversary and sudsing issue.

    Couple of pics in Operation Just ran a load, no issues. But I took some pics. The first two are the wash cycle, you can see just a little suds around the edge, water barely milky, hard to see in pics. Second two are the rinse, water clear as can be, not a soap bubble to be found. Looks like far...

    Speed Queen TC5 Anniversary and sudsing issue.

    The detergent is still the box we had when we bought the machine. Nothing has changed. It's been at least 20 loads apart the three times it did it. I'd try new detergents, but it would be at least a year before I knew it did anything. Still confused about plumbing direct to drain? You see my...

    Speed Queen TC5 Anniversary and sudsing issue.

    I'm using Gain powder, it is HE. I use less than the lowest mark on the cup (1), which they claim is for small loads. The markings are 1 to 5. The stand pipe didn't produce any suds, the drain hose did! If detergent was the issue, why did it work fine for 8 months, and generally still works...

    reply #49 I wish we could discuss it here. Love to know what you think was foretold in the bible that applies to he earth today. Most the people who try to convince/convert me, also voted for a felon and adjudicated sex abuser. Very odd...hope you aren't one of those.

    Reply #44 Thanks to regulations, I can take a deep breath. At least for now. Do you know what /s means?

    Yes, unrestricted pollution is freedom. It's disgusting that you can no longer see the pollution in the air. The river that used to flow brown, and now I have to look at the bottom. Cars no longer put out enough exhaust gas. How disgusting. Now we will all get cancer from windmills. /s

    Speed Queen TC5 Anniversary and sudsing issue.

    Marky Thanks. Yes, I was looking for suggestions. But also curious why it didn't do this for 8 months, and why only very rarely now. Before I bought the machine, I had read of others who have this issue, but they seem to have it on every single load. When mine never did it at all for months, I...

    Speed Queen TC5 Anniversary and sudsing issue.

    Marky. I don't use the eco cycle. Always use a full rinse cycle. That's what I meant when I said it's the final spin cycle. And when you can tell it's done putting out water, and just pumping air. Ran two loads since, no issue, I suspect it will go a few more months, or more, before it happens...

    Speed Queen TC5 Anniversary and sudsing issue.

    Laundry tub isn't possible, the main drain out of the house is about 4 ft. off the floor of the basement, would require pump etc. No room anyways. I just find it odd it was fine for 8 months. Not sure what you mean by plumbing direct into the drain? It is direct into the only drain I have. Not...

    Opinions please

    Maybe I'm missing it. I don't see any oil, just belt particles/dust from wear. And it appears most of it is on the motor.

    Here's the video from 2023, claiming they broke ground in Texas. Nonsense according to SQ.

    I don't believe they are updating the capacity. That was a rumor started on YouTube by the "appliance insider" a couple years ago. Stating they were in the process of building a new plant in Texas. They weren't, and still aren't, building a new plant in Texas.
