Washing machines with a collapsible tank - companies

Washing machine tankAll washing machines have all sorts of breakdowns for various reasons, and there are no exceptions.

Every breakdown can be repaired. To do this, you should service your washing machine more often. One of the most common breakdowns is the failure of the bearings.

Now it is logical to ask the question, which washing machines have collapsible tanks, because by installing such a tank you can only change the broken bearings.

To begin with, you need to understand what a collapsible tank is

One important element is that your washing machine has a collapsible tank.

As we said before, at some time your washing machine may break down from faulty bearings and they will have to be replaced with new parts. However, you can save money if you have a collapsible tank, because it allows you to stay open and by replacing bearings, you will spend your money not on service centers and handymen, but only on new bearings.

The collapsible tank of a washing machineWashing machines, and more precisely their tank consist of of two half tanks - front and back. They fit tightly together, and certain bolts hold the connection quite firmly. With this structure, the tank is very easy to disassemble into rear and front half tanks, which will give you the opportunity to replace the bearings.

Washing machine tank assembledTo date, quite a large number of manufacturing companies produce designs without a collapsible tank, and if there is an opportunity to disassemble the tank, then only the back of it, without the right to change the bearings and other parts. According to experts, this version of the tanks (whole) is the most convenient and reasonable choice.

Such complete (not disassembled) tanks in its breakdown are changed completely, although quite a large number of masters undertake such work. Not very reliable is the process of replacing the whole tank itself, because there is little chance to connect the line of penetration tightly, and this manages not everyone, and the repair itself is very expensive and guarantees that after repairing the washing machine will work for a long time, there is no.

What washing machines are equipped with a collapsible tank?

No one will give you a complete answer to this question except the manufacturers, because only they know what they install in their designs.

We know for a fact that washing machines from five or ten years ago have collapsible parts.

The washing machines produced nowadays remain a question to which we do not know the answer.

Manufacturer companies LG Korean brand and "Atlant" Belarusian brand with one hundred percent confidence understand this technology these days.

Similarly, collapsible parts are available in brands such as Samsung, Electrolux, AEG..

The companies have Indesit, Candy and Ariston only non-disassembled parts.

The company manufacturer Boss produces washing designs with two types of tanks. In the WAA series, there is no possibility to disassemble, and in WAE it is present.

The brand ARDO also produces washing machines with non-disassembled tanks.

We have already mentioned above that if there is a possibility to disassemble the tank in the washing machines, it can be done only from the back side, because the bearings are located there.

The manufacturer LG has such a possibility. В Service Center with a certificate will be able to disassemble the tank in this way, it will not even affect the price for the repair.

How can you find out what kind of tank is in the washing construction?

If you just take and buy a washing machine from the above brands, it is unlikely that you will find a unit with a collapsible tank, it is not the most reasonable option. It is better to just look at it. We present you two ways to see the tank in a washing machine:

Washing machine tankFirst. You can ask your consultants to remove the top panel of the unit and look inside. The elements to be disassembled can be identified immediately. The tank will consist of two half tanks fastened with special bolts. This is quite a difficult method, because in most cases the consultants will refuse to remove the cover and show you the insides of the construction, because this operation can in no way affect its warranty in the future.

Second. This method is quite simple. Just tilt the machine toward you and away from you. Washing designs have no bottom, or rather it is always open, which allows you to examine the tank and understand what type it is.

Do not trust the word of sellers, because most of them have no idea what is inside the washing machine they sell, and no wonder - they did not assemble it, and in the instructions about the type of tank also nothing.

The best way is to simply ask the repair shops which unit is equipped with such a tank. Masters sitting in such centers will help recommend not only the model of washing machine with a collapsible tank, but also the brand, as well as can tell you about the designs from personal experience.
