If Your Washer Is Leaking

Unplug the washer before servicing or cleaning it; pressing the power button does not disconnect it from the electrical supply. Source: GE Appliances - Washer Owner's Manual
To prevent siphoning, Whirlpool's instructions limit the drain hose to no more than 8 inches inside a standpipe that is at least 2 inches across and 39 to 96 inches tall, measured from the bottom of the washer. Source: Whirlpool - Washer Installation Instructions
