Can you imagine the hoses bursting shortly after you leave the house and the whole time you are gone, the water just continues to run and flood your house.There are a few precautions you can take to help eliminate this from happening:-Check your hoses once a month for any leaks or bubbling

-Replace your hoses every 2 to 3 years with new ones

-And, whenever leaving your house for an extended period of time, such as a vacation, turn off the water supply to the washer.
