You've got braided hot/cold hoses on the washer. Change them. I was getting water hammer until I switched to rubber hoses for my washer. I no longer have the water hammer.
Just replaced the braided with high quality rubber hoses from amazon. New filter washers as well. Hoses not pvc coated. Slightly bigger outside diameter. Not sure about I.D. Water hammer gone
Gotta check your local laws and ordinances because here in my area rubber hoses are illegal. You have to use metal braided hoses and If they aren't allowed in your area and you have a water leak your homeowners insurance won't cover it
In reference to water hammer, I installed 2 water hammer arresters directly to the back of the machine and it took care of the problem, took 10 minutes. About $30 bucks for 2 of them at Home Depot.
Mine has stopped mid wash several times and I had to unplug it and plug back in and start the cycle over. It'll also stop if the lid isnt locked down just right. I looked at several brands before settling on my Speed Queen but unfortunately the model I bought has a lot of complaints from other owners. I hate that it can't be set for soaking a load, instead you have to wait until you hear the water turn off and hold the power button to unlock the lid and open it to soak the clothes. It doesn't allow much water like all the other modern "eco friendly" washers. You also can't do a large load bc it doesn't clean the clothes as well. My next washer will definitely be the older fashioned type without all the computerized bells and whistles so it can be easily repaired unlike the fancy Samsung washing machine that was money down the drain after it tore up after the first year and the professional technician from Samsung couldn't even find the cause of the problem in order to repair it. None of the newer machines wash clothes as well as they did decades ago. I spend more time spot treating and prewashing by hand than the washing machine does running a cycle in order to get a lot of clothes clean. At this point Im considering trying to find one of those washboards my grandmother used and wash most of the laundry by hand.
Mine also stopped midcycle for the second time with lights flashing. Unplugged for 10 seconds and plugged back in. Error code was clogged/slow water in. Just upgraded to bigger rubber hoses and got rid of the thinner braided stainless. Had to use the dedicated spin cycle to spin wet load of clothes after it stopped. Runs fine again.
One thing that will help with the water hammer and also prolong the hot water tank and toilet fill is an expansion tank on the hot water tank. Unless you’re on a well then you already have one more than likely.
Ill try. Spinning is nearly silent. But you can tell its super high speed if youre right next to it with no other noises. Filling you just hear water splashing off and on during autofill/measuring, and any sound your pipes make from waterflow if any
Why do cars fight gravity by having wheels that spin and suspend the load sideways? Does that make sense to you? lol We have ball bearings that work fine to suspend sideway rotation on things like locomotives and tanks and those tractor things that move space rockets, right? They just need to be engineered correctly and made with the right materials. If the argument was against low quality parts or bad engineering, I would agree with that.
We have a SQ tr3 we sometimes have problems with fabric softener not being washed out which causes stains especially in sheets. I bought it in January of 2024
I've been finding pin holes in clothes with the TC5. Never had this problem with ANY washer. Very disappointed with the holes considering the price point of this washer. And this is not due to detergents and filling the tub to full. I've been using the same detergent for years and I barely have enough clothes to make a full load.
@@deborahwilliams4999 I think that the pinhole issue is more a result of clothing being made with increasingly cheaper materials. I had clothing from 20 years ago last a very long time in my now-20-year-old Maytag washer; in the last few years, though, I've had pinhole issue crop up in t-shirts that are treated gently/ washed correctly. It's maddening.

Good tip. Those were included but makes sense

@@dylanclay2741 Never realized there was such a thing. Then again in our increasingly over regulated society, I’m not surprised.

I'd like to see the heavy duty cycle.

Put some water hammer arresters in above the washer valves . Very easy and worth it
Just got mine, doesnt have spin only
Can you post a video of what it sounds like when is draining and spinning? Does it make sounds? Please and thank yoy
Ill try. Spinning is nearly silent. But you can tell its super high speed if youre right next to it with no other noises. Filling you just hear water splashing off and on during autofill/measuring, and any sound your pipes make from waterflow if any
How long are the wash cycles on the TR5

Your drain is too small. Must be 2 inches with a stand pipe with a height of 18-30 inches
I think i have 1.5 😢. Can hear the stand pipe filling

I prefer the TC5.
Most do, especially with kids, but as recent retired couple that doesn't get things overly dirty anymore, I think the TR7 would serve us well.

So in short, stay away from Speed Queen
