    Leaking drain hose
    My drain hose that is attached to the washer and drains into the wall is leaking at the connection from the washer. How do you tighten the clamp? Is it possible I need to get a new clamp? So far I have cleaned up 2inch standing water 3 times in my laundry room. Each time I think I have it tight enough but so far, I haven't

    It's possible that the hose clamp is faulty and won't let you tighten it enough.
    Go down to your local hardware store and replace it. Good luck, Tom
