Washing machine faults we see in Masdar City

An efficient machine achieves its rating partly by using less water, which means detergent is less diluted and minerals concentrate more. On Abu Dhabi water that accelerates scale on the heating element and in the valve block, and it shows up as long cycles, poor rinsing and a machine that no longer heats properly. Where we find scale rather than a failed component we say so, because that is a maintenance answer.

Over-dosing detergent has the same effect from the other direction. High-efficiency machines need far less than people are used to, and excess detergent leaves residue in the drum, the dispenser and the door seal, which causes odour, poor rinsing and eventually blocked drainage. It costs nothing to correct and it prevents repeat call-outs.

These machines are also more electronically controlled than older ones, so we read the fault codes as part of the diagnosis. A code narrows the cause quickly, and it stops a sensor or valve fault being mistaken for something structural.

Washing machine repair in Masdar City: common questions

Cycles take much longer than the display says. Why?

Usually scale on the heating element. The machine extends the cycle waiting for a temperature it can no longer reach quickly. A descale often resolves it.

Am I using too much detergent?

Very possibly. High-efficiency machines need far less than most people use, and the excess causes residue, odour and eventually drainage problems.

The machine shows an error code. Does that help?

A lot. Tell us the code when you book and we can often narrow the likely cause before the visit.
