Half of all washing machine water damage incidents are caused from a burst water supply line. Repair costs about 6000 per incident.
Your plan of prevention:
Inspect water supply line hoses every six months to ensure the connection to the valve is secure. If loose, hand tighten first, then tighten an additional 2/3 of a turn using pliers. Leave a 3-4 inch gap between the washing machine and wall to avoid kinking. Check hoses for kinks, cracks or blisters commonly found near the hose connection. Replace hoses every 5 years and consider braided stainless steel hoses.
Never run the washing machine while not at home.
