it could be the water from the pipes. Let the water run a few minutes before using it. That way, water that was stagnant overnight would be flushed out.Why when I wash clothes, the water smells like sewer?
if you use well water for that , that could be the problem.
do you take your clothes out as soon as the cycle is done? If so then you should go to your town and ask them to take a water sample you could have some type of contamination in your water. I know this from experience and nothing was done about it till I asked them to take a sample.
If you have well water then it is a natural smell. It is the oder from the rocks and dirt in the ground, but do not worry it is a filtering system so it's not contaminated. On the other hand if you do have city water it could actually be your washing machine has some mildew build up. Run a cycle with just bleach or CLR and that should take care of the problem. You should probably do it once a mouth anyways just to be safe. It also could be that your sewer is backing up but you would be able to tell because your toilets would not be flushing properly. Hope that this helps ;)
Sometimes the washer effluent gets mixed up with the drain and it draws the smelly water up, I am not sure how, but it used to happen to my washing. Get a plunger down your sink and clean out that plughole.
Obviously you've been wallowing in the sewers.
sounds like the water is getting stagnant in the pipe. Let the washer start filling, them turn the knob so it will drain and spin, then start over. Doesn't sound like you use the washer daily, because it shouldn't get foul over night. If you have a utility tub in the laundry room, run the sink first to flush out the pipe.
If that doesn't fix it you may have a vent issue. Good luck
Cuz u need to shower more! lol
