    I have purchased an LG F4WV710P1, RC90V9AV3Q washing machine and dryer and would like to connect them to one drain which is about 3m away. I was advised to buy a tee, but I noticed that it sometimes leaks a little and in addition, water from the washing machine flows up the hose up to the dryer. Is this water retraction not harmful? Or maybe there is another better solution?

    Is this tripod, or maybe the tee, has the same diameters to connect, because the hoses are rather different diameters. In addition, is the common hose at least the same diameter as that of the washing machine? The drainage of this siphon has to be checked if it is not clogged. because there it is possible to clog with hair or fluff from washing.

    It has the same diameter, but I bought a new electrolux dryer hose, which has one narrow for the dryer and one more or less close to a tee, this common extension hose is also about the same diameter as the washing machine and everything is tightly twisted with clamps. The siphon is unobstructed, I even removed the ball from inside. As for the leakage on the tee, it can still be secured by clamping in the right places and very tightly, but I'm more worried that the water goes through the hose to the dryer during washing.

    During washing or when pumping the dirty water out of the washing machine?

    After all, the dryer is standing on the washing machine, so the water uphill to the dryer will not go unless the drain is blocked.

    While the water is being pumped out. This is how I thought that water should not go up, but at the height of the connection to the dryer, the water still comes in, only when the hose is straightened to the height of the entire dryer, the hose does not pour out of the hose.

    You should use the tee only at the drain pipe in the wall: https://images.app.goo.gl/n3ikDtA8edzLEyRH6 turn the water tap by 180 ° because for the mechanical Aqua Stop to work, it must point vertically downwards.
    Arrange the washing machine hose in the inverted U, you should find the mention of this in the washing machine manual.

    I would install such a tee, but the hose from the washing machine and dryer will not get, and if the washing machine and dryer stand at the drain, it will cover the window. I understand to decorate the U drain upside down, should I turn the siphon up?

    My point was to extend the drain hose of both the washing machine and the dryer, I did not write that you should move the device. You used a tee and the connection is leaky as you write yourself.
    Lay the drainage hose in an inverted U. Take a look at the instruction manual and you will probably find a note of this.

    I decided on a tee, because I did not find the dryer hose so long, and I would also have to use an extension to extend it. I was able to seal the tee with clamps, twisting them with all my strength in the right place, especially in the dryer hose, because mainly in this connection there was a problem with tightness, but the problem with water drainage when water was pumped out of the washing machine remained, i.e. water flows into the drain and up into the dryer. I don't know if it has any effect on drying and washing, but it bothers me.

    In the manual it is mentioned, there is even a special plastic kit for this, but it is rather for the wash basin etc. in the manual they mentioned.

    I think that it is this tee that causes the washing machine, draining the water, forcing the water into the dryer hose and this may have a negative impact on the dryer and therefore separate drain hoses from both devices would solve this problem.
    Hoses that can be used to connect to the original are available in shops as well as couplings of various diameters.

    Remove the siphon. Extend the wall drainage above the radiator towards the washing machine. End above or behind the 3rd plate next to the washing machine and connect both hoses with a suitable tee (s) without extensions.

    - not true, it can be as it is.

    - of course.

    Sorry about offtop, but you raised an important point.
    This hose does not work under pressure by accident? This is how I was explained upon purchase.
    I mean, if I have it horizontally, then W won't work?

    Buddy @misiekpb, I wrote only what the former administrator of the household appliances department, Mr. @skryn, always repeated. To the question you asked, the answer was to always point the hose vertically downwards when installing it because this is to ensure its correct operation in the event of a leak.

    if I had known that there would be such a problem, I would probably have done it right away, but they advised me in the shop, it's just a waste of money for snakes, it's good that at least the most expensive inflow will be useful. Now I will connect the dryer for now and leave it on the tank and I will probably look for someone to extend this sewerage to me, because I will probably spartan myself.

    - no, this is a mechanical absorption aquastop.

    But it is installed inadequately (i.e. simply ugly).

    That's why it's mounted horizontally, because it hides behind the washing machine and you can't see it. So it's not ugly ?.

    I think you misunderstood something. The aquastop valve is on the inlet hose and there is perpendicularly (but you can say "upside down") screwed to the tap on the water pipe. He's not hiding anywhere. This does not affect its operation, but it looks unattractive. In addition, the inflow and outflow could be further apart.

    I mean my Aqua Stop :)
    So, to sum up, the mounting position does not affect its operation?

    Not.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around connecting an LG F4WV710P1 washing machine and RC90V9AV3Q dryer to a single drain located 3 meters away. The user experiences water retraction issues, where water from the washing machine flows back into the dryer during drainage. Various responses suggest checking the diameters of hoses and ensuring proper installation of a tee fitting to prevent leaks. Recommendations include arranging the washing machine hose in an inverted U shape and ensuring the siphon is unobstructed. Some participants advise against using a shared drain for both appliances, suggesting separate hoses to avoid potential damage to the dryer. The importance of correct installation of the Aqua Stop valve is also highlighted.
