Laundry Faucet Repair: Replace Leaking Washer Seals

This video will guide you through the process of repairing a laundry faucet that is leaking.

The laundry faucet featured in this video is an old style double lever handle model.

The repair is quite simple and only requires a wrench (14mm in my case) and a flat head screwdriver.

You will need to shutoff your main water supply and then open an upstairs faucet to act as a vent and your laundry faucet to drain the water from the piping.

You will then remove the faucet handles (using a wrench - mine was 14mm) and then remove and inspect the condition of the washer seals. You should bring one of the old washer seals with you to a hardware store so you can be sure to purchase new washer seals of the correct size.

After replacing the washer seal on each faucet handle reinstall them into the faucet body and your laundry faucet will not leak until the seals wear out again.

Good Luck with your repair.
