Washer

Best Buy installed our washer/dryer in 2020. They came back yesterday to fix the dryer I broke. They wouldn’t hook up the washer though. They complained about the pipes.

So job today was reconnecting everything. There are actually two washers. The main one and the little tiny quickly one it sits on. When I unhooked it I undid two outflow pipes and two inflow lines. The inflow lines each go through a splitter to the two machines but I left those in place.

When I started it today there were two splitters on the hot water line.

What?

Where the hell did that come from. I swear it wasn’t there when I took this apart. Did Beat Buy put it there yesterday for some unfathomable reason? They must have.

I took it off, put everything back where it needed to be, and ran a quick test load on the main machine.

It worked. Also, more importantly, nothing leaked.

Bucket… just in case.
I have no clue.
