- Washer not filling. Maytag says to make sure both faucets are fully open, the inlet hoses are not kinked, and the inlet screens on the water valve are not clogged. Source: Maytag Product Help - Checking the Fill Hoses if the Washer is not Filling

Around Poughkeepsie
Poughkeepsies' Water Treatment Facility (owned and operated by the City and Town of Poughkeepsie), which supplies Poughkeepsie, reports hardness of 74.5 mg/L average (about 4.4 grains per gallon; range 57-120 mg/L) — moderately hard. Hard water leaves scale on washer inlet screens and heating parts and calls for the right detergent dose, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair.
