So, I came across this crazy article about laundry hoses causing house floods in Arizona, and it got me thinking about all the potential disasters hiding in plain sight. Apparently, experts are warning homeowners to replace their old rubber laundry hoses with newer, stainless steel ones to avoid any catastrophic flooding incidents.
Basically, the problem is that over time, those old hoses start to deteriorate and can burst under the pressure of all that water. And let’s be real, none of us want to deal with that kind of mess. So, the best thing to do is to swap out those old hoses with ones that can handle the job without breaking the bank.
Now, let me give you a personal example of why this is so important. A few years ago, I had a friend who ignored this very advice and ended up with a flooded laundry room and some serious water damage. It cost her a fortune to fix, not to mention all the hassle and stress of dealing with the aftermath. Trust me, you don’t want to be in that situation.
So, if you’re a homeowner in Arizona (or anywhere, really), do yourself a favor and check those laundry hoses. It may seem like a small thing, but it could save you a huge headache (and wallet) in the long run. Better safe than sorry, right?
