Fernco PHG Grip Connector for 2” or 1-1/2” Standpipe to 1” -1-7/16” Washer Hose, Pack of 1, Gray

I couldn't find in any hardware store or big box store. The homeowner performing used duct tape to keep the washing machine discharge line in place. This was a huge upgrade and no longer worried about it falling out

For years I had one of these on the drain hose from my washer to the standing drain pipe in my laundry. A few years ago I bought a new washer which was delivered and installed while I was at work. The coupling was missing and when I asked about it, no one knew a thing about it. Oh well. I tell that story because I wasn't able to find once of these locally and so I simply have had the hose sticking loose into pipe ever since, which mean I don't really need one. I found this on-line while looking for something else and so I ordered it. It is nice that Amazon has a program where you can bundle low cost items and qualify for free shipping, Without that I wouldn't have bought this.OK, enough of the irrelevant stuff. This makes a very tidy, secured and sealed connection and there is nothing to the installation. I am happy to recommend it for this reason alone. It also pretty much eliminates the possibility of the drain hose inadvertently being pulled out of the pipe and the resultant flooding the next time the laundry is run.After I posting this, I saw the only other reviewer mentioned that his installation was made because his drain did not have a gas trap. I am not a plumber, and so will confess I don't know if there is anything to be concerned about, but I am not sure that this coupler is meant to eliminate the need for a gas trap. If sewer gas is escaping, can't it come right pass the connection and enter the house through the machine?

Yeah! You can't beat a Fernco. This not only worked for my washer outlet/downpipe, but it also worked to connect a tub drain pipe into a larger floor drain pipe, believe it or not--several months of draining the tub with no problems whatsoever. One thing to be aware of--the screw on the clamp DOES stick out about 3/4 of an inch--make sure you have clearance with the wall, other pipes, whatever.Expect me to check back in five years to say my two Ferncos are still going strong. Nice sturdy rubber, strong clamps that I don't think will rust--but if they do, I'll let you know.Go Fernco!

I purchased this Hose Grip Coupling as I didn't have a good way to secure my washing machine drain hose to my drain pipe in the laundry room. The coupler fit perfectly over the 1.5 inch pvc drain in my laundry room, and the 1 inch drain hose from my washing machine fit perfectly into the coupler. I used a shot of WD40 to make the drain hose slide into the coupler easily, which resulted in a nice tight fit. I would recommend this product.

Simple but very effective part to keep your washer hose from coming out of the drain. I used this product on a 1 1/2 inch drain pipe and the standard hose outlet that came with my Kenmore washer. There are no leaks and there is no way the hose is coming out of this thing. The pictures don't show it real well but the inside is tapered to accommodate different outside diameter hoses. The tapered design allows the hose to push through firmly. Once the hose is in its not coming out without a considerable amount of force. I am very happy with this product.

This fits into the pipe and the hose fits inside perfectly.

Fit well and was just what I needed. You might try wetting your hose before you slide it in if you have trouble getting it through the hole!

I'm a landlord, I put these in all my units with laundry hookups

Installed and working as described.

These are just great, would never use anything else for hooking up my washer and dryer. They simply attaché to the top of the drain pipe, securing the washer drain hose really well. If it is a temporary hookup it is so easy to unhook when pulling the washer out, but at the same time there is no bad odour. Worth the time and effort it took to find it.

Good universal connector works well where drain pipe is away from wall so you can't hang a waste pipe from a machine over the traditional "inverted U"
