We live in a house that is more than 50 years old. Next to the 40 year old Speedqueen washer, there is an old soapstone (could be concrete) twin laundry sink.
The washing machine discharges the grey water into one side of the twin sink. We just found out that the water level in the sink is not supposed to rise to the level that the drain hose from the washer is submerged, (as has been the case for some time now).
We don't know if the sink is beyond repair. I was at Home Depot, and one of the workers said he had the same kind of sink. He said the sink just needed to be snaked.
We need to get a drain that works ASAP. But at the same time we don't want to go beyond what is really needed. One person said to get rid of the very heavy old sink and get a cheap plastic sink from Home Depot for $50.
We are at a standstill with a new floor and a new washing machine until we can get a proper drain (for the washer).
All comments and suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks In Advance
